To give you some info, when starting a new fresh map, this trigger is always shown:

  • Melee Initialization
    • Events
      • Map initialization
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Melee Game - Use melee time of day (for all players)
      • Melee Game - Limit Heroes to 1 per Hero-type (for all players)
      • Melee Game - Give trained Heroes a Scroll of Town Portal (for all players)
      • Melee Game - Set starting resources (for all players)
      • Melee Game - Remove creeps and critters from used start locations (for all players)
      • Melee Game - Create starting units (for all players)
      • Melee Game - Run melee AI scripts (for computer players)
      • Melee Game - Enforce victory/defeat conditions (for all players)
With this simple trigger, you can already make a good melee and it also includes the full AI for Computers when playing melee with Computers. The only thing you will have to worry is how you will make the terrain and how will it fit a melee. So to give you a tip, I suggest make your terrain a wide one but fill it with some doodads and destructibles, I do not mean wide that you will leave the terrain empty. Make many paths so your map is open and it will make the map worth exploring and also open for ambushes. Adding waygates is another option.

After the terrain, now you must put creeps. Remember to put them properly. Not too near on player's spawn location. A good example of putting creeps are in some Gold Mines, Shops, Taverns and Fountains. But mostly we put them randomly still minding that not to put them near player spawn location.

Now that you put up some creeps, you must give each available creeps in your melee maps some Item Drop Table. This table will determine on what these creeps will drop when they are killed.

This is the tip for mang a good melee map. But if you still want to go further like doing an altered melee map. You can always edit the races or create one but that will require long time of balancing. ALso some custom items and such!

Oh Thanks . Guys Please help me with Item Tables . I Already Make item but i dont know how to make creeps have them

Just double click the creep and a info about the creep will appear, now find the Item Dropped and there. Add the item drop table and put the items there or you can make a trigger on adding item drops like this one: Triggered Item Drop. Looks easier on triggering them because in adding a table, you will have to click all your creeps just to add each of them a drop.
