Are you a fan of the Hero Wars series, and have yet to see a version of it on The Frozen Throne that can be played competitively? An open-minded DotA player who needs a break from overly serious games? Hero Wars Inferno may provide what you are looking for.
Hero Wars Inferno (HwI), while it may never reach the caliber of other AoS maps, is a fun new map in the Hero Wars series. Play as one of 36 original heroes, all of which have at least one or two custom, triggered abilities.
Features this map includes that most Hero Wars do not include:
1) A unit training system that prohibits "shrining" (a method that can be used to save gold when you are about to die), thus giving hero kills and deaths a real impact on the game's outcome.
2) Different values for HP per Str point, Armor per Agi point, Mana regeneration/Mana per Int point, and Damage per Primary Attribute, thus giving the map a faster pace.
3) Synthesis Items, which are essentially simple "recipe items," each with its own purpose in the game to add to item diversity.
4) Defense/waves cost only lumber, thus giving no penalty to stats when you summon/defend, keeping everybody relavant in the late-game, even if they choose to defend.
5) Much much more !

Even if it is playable (I've tried it alone) the map is so ugly I just can't get past it and I never liked unit models as shops especially flying ones. Skills are the only thing I liked and what I mostly disliked is the meeting place of creeps. So many towers so close on both sides, creeps just die as soon as they meet, they don't even have a chance to hit each other. Even I couldn't hit one cause towers killed them too fast.
2 stars from me.
