Hey, I have a problem. Whenever somebody chooses a custom hero, (not really custom, just custom abilities) from the tavern, it freezes for about 5-10 seconds. For everybody. Except it only happens when the first person picks a hero. Once it freezes the first time, it doesnt do it again. Any ideas why?

To prevent lag when a handle appears for the first time you should preload it. The most simple way is to create and instantly remove a unit/ability of every type at initialization.

That happens also in DotA
