They aren't considered summoned.

You need to add the Summoned classification to them with triggers:
  • Example 1
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Spawns a summoned unit
    • Conditions
      • (Unit-type of (Summoning unit)) Equal to Archimonde
      • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
        • Conditions
          • (Unit-type of (Summoned unit)) Equal to Doom Guard
          • (Unit-type of (Summoned unit)) Equal to Fel Stalker
    • Actions
      • Unit - Add classification of Summoned to (Summoned unit)
I'm not sure if this will work since the units aren't considered summoned (They might not trigger the Event). But you can probably adjust this trigger to catch when these units Enter the map or you could trigger Dark Portal yourself.

  • Example 2
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit enters (Entire map)
    • Conditions
      • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
        • Conditions
          • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Doom Guard
          • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Fel Stalker
    • Actions
      • Unit - Add classification of Summoned to (Triggering unit)

I never knew summon is a classification.
anyway, I have just tested your first trigger. They ARE counted as a spawned units.

Edit: I have test that they will also get damaged after I added the classification. Perfect!

This will save me the trouble of trigger the whole spell from other summons, and also it will be very easy to edit the ability then, rather than having to edit the trigger, which would have been another hassle.

Thanks a lot!


though I must say the line Unit - Add classification of Summoned to (Summoned unit) feels so counter intuitive LOL xD
