What is the best WC3 map you ever played?

[En_Fuego]

Try VZP, it owns all other Vampirism out there.

Anyway, I used to play stunota some time ago, I stopped when it was clearly going imba, look at Tiny, he's basicly getting two nukes + dagon. Any chances?
That is why I play Vampirism, if I am to face something that can own me with 2-3 hits (tiny does) then I shall play Vampirism VZP. Again, VZP isn't only about building, you don't have harvesters here, you build a lumber base, and to get gold you don't just wait for some silly gold bonus, you must destroy gold deposit, to destroy it, you must make a slayer, and those are constantly being hunt by Vampires, that is a constant battle, if not your slayer, then often your base, that is a challenging mix. Not everyone can build properly and count distance properly, could you build a tower with 500 range to always attack vamp? We can, cos we can count the distances properly...

You act as if none of these come up in DotA.

And yes, Tiny will completely rape you if you have no knowledge of what he is capable of.

The only imba hero at the moment is Thrall. And he doesn't have a stun at all.

CastleBuilder North 2.4 No Myths by Funness

Mass seige with the siege specialty and you've got nothing to worry about. As long as no one did that, the game is excellent.

Sheep Tag: It doesnt get old, it's hosted quite a bit, and its very fast-paced. Might be kinda crappy when I play against people who are... nubby, but can be extremely fun when I'm facing good players.

[Bliksem]

one good map is DOTA, and the beta of frosbit cavern isn't nothing bad,gaia's retaliation, empires of the north, and other many maps, I think are good maps, the only problem are we don't know exactly how are everyone of them...and hiveworkshop have many maps...good maps. =)

 

[Miss_Foxy]

Oh, I wouldn't mind Age Of Myths too, it seems rather fun
Also, Parasite or Combat Zone aren't bad too.

It depends on map type!

That's alot of the "best map."
Fun wise, probably gonna have to go with Beam Ball. I thought Pirates was a really well made map though.

"Battle for Middle Earth", version 2.5, by Legend-Fire (back then going by another name). I'm re-posting because I forgot to mention that the version I'm talking about was from, what, 5 years ago? It's hard to properly localize it chronologically because the versions overlapped, but I remember that the map had just gotten off its Reign of Chaos version. 1.8, or 1.9, I'm not sure, were Reign of Chaos, then the following were Frozen Throne.I remember those old Reign of Chaos versions still had an Orange player in command of the Elves of Lórien. The first TFT versions were the first custom maps I ever played across Battle.Net.Those were good versions because the heroes could not destroy entire armies on their own and could actually be killed by other units. They only really became trouble for units when they got past level 10, and even then, they were not invincible.The following version to 2.5 was 3.1, which, in my opinion, screwed up the game for good. Nazgûl became a nightmare for heroes -- and, remembering that the Carrion Swarm spells did even more damage then they do in the current version, units too, but specially for heroes --, you couldn't have them fighting or even in the rear of your forces unless you knew the black riders were a few miles away, because the Nazgûl would come from behind, or catch up with your heroes after a fight, and it'd be a luck if any of your heroes survived.Eventually, their speed was reduced and their spells' effectiveness was diminished, but the game was never the same again. People who play the map today drop their eyes, yell, and flame if they ever spot a Fellowship splitting their heroes, whilst, in version 2.5, I never had a problem, I believe it was even a regular procedure. It was so fun to watch as Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli helped defend Helms Deep while Pippin and Merry were sitting with Treebeard on Fangorn and Gandalf came to help with a bunch of horsemen... Those were the days.The effects of the changes, one of which doubled -- or increased, somehow -- the heroes' damage, is still noticeable today. The game is now about heroes, and if they die, the game loses a lot of its fun factor, the little that it has left after playing a few games, to you. While there are a few units that deal slightly extra damage (+15%) to heroes, it's just not the same anymore, and the damage you can do to any faction is greatly reduced because the heroes are, from level 5 forward, after all, the trump of your own faction.The pressure that is put on hero hunting is, logically, directly proportional to the pressure that is put on players such as the Fellowship or the Nazgûl to hunt heroes, which justifies why hero splitting has now become a major mistake in "Battle for Middle Earth", and, citing the majority of the average player, a «newbie/noob move» for the Fellowship.

Mad Balls Arena.
With other people, IT'S FUN AS HELL!

 

[HQCosTheta]

Cube defense, hero siege, wintermaul, line tower wars, td massacre, castle defense, 10 hero siege (even though it's buggy as hell), battleships, battletanks, AoS, dark deeds and hero defense.

Back in the day there were some cool hero arenas, TDs and RPG's but they have been getting trashier over the years or maybe i'm getting jaded. when i go on battle.net now all I see is an ocean of DotA which I loathe if only because of the people who play them.
