Store the triggering unit in a variable, and the triggering player.
Use (Triggering player) instead of (Owner of (Triggering unit)).
Store the level of the ability for the unit above the "Pick every units" block and use the variable.

Remember, you should always store things into variables so you don't have to repeatedly call them again and again.
It's more efficient if you use variables.

And please try to make more complex spells, because currently, it's incredibly difficult to decide whether we should approve or reject resources like this.

Since both of these spells follow the same principle (creating a dummy unit which does the effect via object editor) the usefulness of having both as an example in the spell section is none.

So you have to decide if having such simple spells is okay or not, be aware tho if you do allow these spells in the spell section you will have to allow every other spell simple as this one.

I can only share my insight based on what the moderators before did to my simple resources:
Rejected because the spell is too simple.

And they worked on pretty much the same principle as these ones.
