Meat Hook ability

[diskarn]

Hello, I just started my sc2 mapping career with 0 knowledge and I am trying to recreate the classic Pudge Wars map from wc3 and hopefully learn something on the way .

My problem is that I have no idea on how to make the meat hook ability which is the core to the map.

Any help/hints/tips/tricks at all would be great!

You use an area search with a delay between itterations that goes foward. This acts as the hook.

Upon finding a target you then terminate the itterative effect and you then use the pull effect in a perodic effect to pull the unit towards pudge. I think you can use beams for the hook effect itself.

Sorry for asking, but where do I find all these options/features?
