I've had a look at it and have found where it freezes:

• Forward to Target
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Location[3] = (Position of Target)
    • Set Location[4] = (Position of Caster)
    • Set Location[5] = (Location[4] offset by 40.00 towards (Angle from Location[4] to Location[3]) degrees)
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Distance between Location[4] and Location[3]) Greater than 60.00
      • Then - Actions
        • // - Here
        • Unit - Move Caster instantly to Location[5], facing Location[3]
      • Else - Actions
        • Trigger - Run Upside attack <gen> (ignoring conditions)
        • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Location[5])
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Location[3])
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Location[4])

Your trigger runs flawlessly the first time, the second time around the trigger is setting the casters location every 0.03 seconds so it looks like the unit is disabled or paused but infact it's just getting moved to the same spot quite often. (Try and cast the Channel spell again when your stopped, you'll notice he trys to raise his sword but because he's being moved every 3 miliseconds he can't finish the spell.)

yep... but why?

what i mean... sometimes it randomly stops when he wants to... no matter what condition i use or whatever... he freezes there :/

btw thx for bothering taking a look at it

EDIT: did you try targeting the other creep? not the first... the second murlock... it executes the triggers like 4 times and then stuck again -.- ... i if would care about this, it would be driving me crazy

I tested the spell yesterday and i noticed that you can put 3 triggers in one(or two, i forgot) so after i did that he did the moves, a bit different, but it worked, but i think its something when you replace a unit with another.
Hmmm, i would sudgest that you check after every trigger if unit is equal to dummy(the second blademaster used) and replace it back to normal and than changing it again to dummy in next trigger. Dunno rethink that. (i"m at school PC so i can"t check it, and yesterday my PC crashed.. )

yesterday i was changing it a little ... but the way it is, i cant see why it gets stuck... if i tell him to move certain offset... why he gets stuck? -.-

ill try to change things a little bit today... and see if it works...

but what bothers me more than anything is that if you target the first murlock, it executes only once. If you target the seconds murlock it executes 4 times... stupid bug

Lol, i have a stupid idea...replace murdoc with some other unit D:

 

[darkrider]

xD... ill try that

EDIT:you wont believe me... but i created a priest in another part of the map... and now it works ¬¬... at least for the priest
