Comment: *Symmetric
*Multiple random item tables
*Green+Orange+Red Creeps
*Green creeps close to starting points
*A lot of terrain tile variation
*Filled up with matching doodads and also creep models
*Tavern isn't guarded
*Multiple Goblin shops, mercenary camps and goblin laboratories
*Enough Wood
*Bonus Goldmines

*What's up with the overlord creep? He doesn't seem to fit
*The elven buildings are also random
*Add more water plants


Rating: 4/5
Another original and fun melee map, follows the basic melee rules, but needs some minor tweaks.

Imma gonna try this out! Probably leave a comment and review tomorrow.

EDIT: Once again, you delivered a fun and original melee map, everything is symmetrical and fair, enough gold mines to use, and a robust creep camps from the beginning and the end. I liked the design of the terrain among all. However, some creep choices seems to be out of place, take a Vile Temptress for example, how could it fit on a Lordaeron Summer tileset and feels very random.
I'll give it a 3/5 for now.

Thanks to all who takes the time to comment on my map.

Doesn't the overlord creep look like some kind of local tribesmen? I just want to make some varieties in this tile set.
And I added elven buildings because they look good to me.
I will consider adding more water plants.
