Can I subscribe Temp?
He made 4 awesome custom units for my map, and I'd really love him to choose one of them to participate in this competition in his name.

Glad to see this picking up a bit. You should modify the OP so it says the correct date now, to avoid confusion. And add Cardinal. ;o

So basically it is a create a hero/create a unit competition... and it's different in that all these hero's are going to be put into the same map and battle it out? Sounds okay

Do we get to play our own unit in a the PvP map containing all heroes?

Well I'm on EU - so no :'(

Ask him. And yes, you do get to PvP.

@Cardinal: I'll make an AI for your unit, then. And send you the replay.

Editing OP now.

EDIT: Cardinal, if you're in, you'll need to pick a unit.

If ever I'm in, I'd like to take Zealot.
Though I might take the Probe.
But for now: Zealot.

Just join. ;P Trust me, making kewl stuff is easier than you'd think. And besides, what have you got to lose?

Also, I just realized I never mentioned this: No veterancy systems, unless you have a very good reason. Just tacking one on your unit is not allowed. BUT, if you want to do something like StarCraft Team Fortress's system... That's totally fine. (In STF, units get an "adrenaline rush" every three kills, with the duration being based on the unit's killcount. And you can load units into various structures to exchange their killcounts for resources. Basically, STF turned killing enemies into a pseudo-resource.)

EDIT: ALSO. IMPORTANT. If you want summons, please call them.

I'll be joining with the Siege Tank and Siege Tank(Siege Mode)!!!

I guess I should have time to make a single unit. Is it ok if I take a building model to use as a unit? Not saying I will use it, need some testing first.

I'll join with a Viking, if possible. I'm more of a maybe, like payne, but I think I can get something done in time.

As for the units we're making, are they supposed to be heroes (like Tosh or Nova having a few abilities) or just regular units with a single ability?

@aalleecc248: Adding you to the list.

@Temp: Go ahead.

@DevliN: Sure. You get both forms, of course. And in answer to your question: Either is fine. (In the very first SSMB (which was just two people) my unit had just a normal attack and no abilities, lol.) I'd aim for between zero and three abilities.

Can we use triggers to enhance our units? (Asking because I want to modify the unit's movement which is severely limited in the data editor right now)

Sure, why not.

You marked Temp as using the Archon, Cardinal is using it. o.o

I'll be using the Zealot (Prisoner) if ever I submit something.
And shouldn't you highlight some wiki articles in the OP?

EDIT/TRANSLATION by DevliN:
I am leaving StarCraft 2 for a while because of mental health issues and school stuff. Unfortunately this means this contest is cancelled.

I'm not sure if this is a joke and our time has just been wasted, or if Bio is really sick. In lieu of this, I'd like to propose that we make this a community project of sorts. Perhaps if we extend the deadline and make all the entries a little more uniform (i.e. each unit has to have a certain amount of abilities and such so less balance would be easier later), this could actually work out. It's up to you guys, I'll go with the majority here. I'd just hate to see everyone's hard work go to waste.

Next month's contest?

I thought about it, but I don't think of this as a month-long contest, especially when you can make a cool unit in an hour or so. That's not to say you couldn't do the same for a map, too.

With this I figured it would just be like the SEN arena map that never was where people made their units and duked it out. At least with this we actually have a chance of making something awesome as a group.
