This is a bug with wc3's graphics engine and certain graphics card drivers; your driver thinks it's caching the data for a special effect, something breaks, and the effect fails to load forevermore.

To fix, restart your computer fully. Not a sleep, not a hibernate, not a hybrid of any of them. If you happen to have windows 10, IIRC windows 10 does a hibernate instead of a shutdown when you tell it to shut down, so be sure to force it to fully shut down.
