---------------------
now let me explain. it is micro when u have 35 secs to kill your oponnent or if he camps, u will just stay on middle and win. that means who is on middle when countdown reaches 0 won.
But there was problem (before) when countdown timer was 0 and some1 kills oponnent it end this round and round after. Are these triggers right that it will fix it? its hypotetical and i dont and cant make tests

Shouldn't it be for the last trigger
player1donthaveunit is set
player2donhaveunit is set since you set off both of them when they both had no units, and you're saying the person who is still alive after everyone is dead? It'd have to be the switches are set.

What you've currently got is 2 extra triggers, the ones seting swiches.
Becuse the swich is controlled by only once condition, it's a waste of space.
What you want is a trigger more like this
Conditions:
Player 1 controlls atleast 1 unit
Player 2 controlls atleast 1 unit
Countdown timer is 0 (how are you regulating this?)
Swich 'round in progress' is set
Currentplayer brings atleast one unit to 'middle' (asuming the round is won for 'current player')
Actions:
(whatever was there before)
clear 'round in progress'
And then add the action set 'round in progress' when you start the next round, After you set the countdown timer.
What this trigger set will do is.
Check if boath players still controll units (without needing swiches, which can screw thigns up from time to time)
Check the countdown timer
Make shure the round is still in progress
Make shure there's a player in the middle
That gives you three layers of defence against a 'free' round.
Also, I suggest finding some way to make tests, even if you just use a computer player who does nothing. Much faster for all of us.

You should only use switches when you need to remember something later and the conditions that you need to remember are no longer available. If a player doesn't have any units, then they probably wouldn't have any units in the future unless you create some for them, so there's no reason to store that in a switch.

I don't think you need those 2 switches.. You could reduce it down to one trigger.

As Hemidal said, switches are for saving information - same thing for all types of variables - not for complicating simple procedures.

Lets break it up into little bits.
I'm assuming that you mean once the player kills someone, he keeps winning.
That is because you have to no trigger to create units back for the other players that have 0 units..
