looking at the hero names and playing the map, I see the clear influence behind this map is DotA. I know some people feel iffy about just directly ripping names and spells from other places but I really don't mind. I tried playing it by myself, but apparently you can't, you don't even spawn, and it just keeps telling me the Sentinel win. Is there a limit for winning? Because I'm sure one side got to ten wins. So this is just like a hero arena type of map I guess, where you run around and kill each other? I thought it'd be more like an AoS/TS but that's cool. If I can find anyone to play with me I'll give more feedback.

yeh its inspired by dota. if you can give it a try online you should. however please make sure you download version 2.1 as i had to fix an annoying deselect glitch and also fixed the damage on some of the hero summons. and remember its more fun the more players you get! enjoy.

Update: im reconsidering shaman's ultimate spell because i dont like his current one. i have a few ideas. tell me what you guys think:
1. soul rip - allows you to steal enemy spells or reflect spells against them. lasts 10 seconds.
2. avator - become immune to spells for 8 seconds.
3. void - your body explodes and reincarnates you with reset cooldowns after 6 seconds.

Woooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah their cowboy.

Brilliantly balanced? When i played with you didnt we agree on some spells that were over powered and underpowered? Did you fix them then?

Highly active + Lots of skill : I'd like to bring up the hydra hero's and his level 4 and 2. Run around + level 2 to get away and spam level 4. ez money.

Links? what? Like, so your saying this stuns all enemy heros?... like Mechs level 4? mhm..

I don't know man, in the end this really looks like that old AoS you made except without buildings or spawn or heals. If you were planning on adding things to make this game actually stand out you should've waited a bit before you made this topic because anyone who remembers your old AoS is just going to say "Omfg the same thing for the what? fourth time?"

I'm sorry I wasn't all too impressed, not yet at least.

Oh and giving each hero a teleport spell was a bad idea in my opinion, should've had a real spell so that they could each have 4 spells to choose from instead of actually 3. It would help things get less stale.

Havn't played the map yet, but from looking at your spells stuff, it looks pretty good.

HOW the hell did you manage to do that!?!?

Also, you should add some sort of description to as what the map is and how you actually play, instead of just spell effects...

I think he may mean teleport 15 seconds back to where you were 15 seconds ago? If he manages to keep the mana and hp intact that would be pretty nifty though. :P

Once again, you have taken your same crappy map, made one or two minor changes, and released it as something new and exciting. Not impressed.

im reworking this spell so that the hydra cant run away when this level 4 spell is cast. also ive reduced the damage of it.

it doesnt stun them. it works by moving them back to their original location if they try to walk out. it forces them to fight basicaly.

Agree'd

All this is now is my Hunted Map with half the amount of spells, and a lesser degree of hero customization.

sounds like moisture control is often a pressing concern in your city
