Except when a player become a critter for sure, still fighting is not the only option here for in most cases you also struggle with AoE types of spells going around the map that gives this map some replay value." Terrain "Although not so much with the map's design view it can be scored a fair grade." Management "Overall map can be useful, since the map has no information on the Quest Menu going on I suggest you make one, this makes players more concern on the current map version and prevent them from getting confused with the latest changes." Total Score: (Gameplay[x/5] + Terrain[x/5] + Management[x/5] / Total Score[15] * 50 + 50) Rate Score Percent Letter 8/15 77% C

looks fun

EDIT after i PLAYED :

it's very chaotic, like Xebarsis' map (random arena). So there is no much strategy involved, but still can be fun for people.

This sounds really fun but you need to improve your description. See Map Submission Rules. You can make one from scratch using BBcode key or you can try a Map Discription Templates. Also, screenshots are practically a must. See http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/tutorial-submission-283/how-add-screenshot-your-map-description-241054/#post2416435 if you don't know how.

Thanks for your opinion! Yes it is supposed to be chaotic and random. That's the whole idea in it. The map is a no-brainer so to speak.

lol ok i didn't want to say "it's for no brain" because it's despising but if it's the goal, to destress players and just have fun then it's working

Well, it certainly looks much better. It would be nice to see a screenshot too.

Feel free to give rep if this helped. Also, try not to double post. use the

Epic map, very chaotic and funny XD
Bugs i found:
some units (i only remembered most dragons) does not have mana, but it's skill costs mana

Suggestions:
Add Tome of Protection, which add 1(or 0.5 maybe) armor (i dont know is this possible)
More players! 6-8 player IMO would be better
Maybe some non-combat consumables and scrolls?
customizable max kills
Random blizzards that can hit air units (air units are too 'free' because most random spells does not hit flying unit)

Suggestion Modes:
Weather effect mode, every random moment random weather are chosen (with no weather having the highest chance)

Maybe a shop mode? random coins will spawn and random event has a chance to spawn a shop temporarily, which sell also random item

Here are a few bbcodes I like:

this is a box in a table. this is a simpletable, it gives you a table with a title bar. pretty cool. Here is the code nonparesed for the whole thing - ya like code inside code. Like a mirror reflecting in a mirror. [table][box=box] this is a table in a box in a table. [box=simpletable] this is a simpletable, it gives you a table with a title bar. pretty cool.

Also, you should really really add a screenshot!

isn't this the same as Random Arena? and had any of you even heard of that custom map?...
random arena uses all dota hero with more player slots whereas LinE uses random creeps w/e powerups

There are a lot of "Random Arena" named map, please give link rather than just saying the name
And this map in my experience is unique because of powerup and spell item system, so it is not really same with other random arenas

Oh wow! How random!
