Ever play that map on Warcraft 3 named DoTA(Defense of The Anciencts). Thought it was cool but liked playing starcraft more than Warcraft 3. Ever wondered why they havent made a version for starcraft? Thought it couldn't be done? "Bringing a warcraft 3 map to starcraft, poposterous. Nonsense it has been done. It will be good(cant say better because it wont be). It will rock the socks off of all those starcraft fans. This will become the next DoTA for starcraft. Tides of Blood will be a great attribution to the starcraft library. Will you be there to witness the phenominon.

It will be a lil hard but can be done. The spells wont change throughout the game. for each of the 6 choosable heros there will be... 1 damage spell with an area of effect. 1 summoning spell 1 special ability 2 levels on all but the special ability. There would be more buts thats all ima do. 5 x 6 30 spells with the basic gameplay. I gotta figure out an upgrade system so you can help your force. The unit timers the income system and experience system. It all adds up for a few days work . Any ideas on these would be welcomed even though this isnt the place for it.
A Perfect Dota-type map has been done on starcraft, and it is in the DLDB too. The game is
Bushido Lore - Shogun Warz. Basically the same concept except the map has a few issues(Explanation, but you didn't hear it from me
). It also has spell leveling up and a pretty unique variety of spells. Chech this one out if you want some ideas on what to and not to do.(Holycrap this Map is a Maxed out rated map! Yays!
)
Though your idea seems to be have done, i don't think that means you shouldn't do your map. I merely posted that for reference. Seeing what you can do with the map idea would be very nice. Make sure you don't COPY DOTA, do your own twists and bits, copying a map would just be kind of dull on an SC Map. Do something intresting like optional sidequests(you can venture into caves and what not
). And things of the like. Could you also post more info on your map in a better organized from, it was kind of strange picking through your post to see what you have done or planned so far. Goodluck.
