1) It always returns "No Heroes!" even if i get a hero and research the ability
2) Anyone else see something i did wrong? All its supposed to do is, every 6 seconds, cast lightning on nearby enemies dealing (3 + ability level) x int

don't bother with doing the count units in group
it is inefficient. do you have a map? the trigger looks like it should work... so an example map would be very useful.

 

[Maker]

You should have a different approach altogether. The periodic trigger shouldn't detect units that have the ability, leave that for another trigger.

Unit learns an ability
Ability == your ability
Add unit to group

Every 6 seconds
pick units in group
if unit is not dead then cast ability
