I now it may sound nooby, but i have a problem. I dont know how to make a unit to cast a spell that it doesnt posses. <Maybe someone will have a solution for it?? For example i want a farseer to cast a blizzard. but he doesnt have the blizzard and he's not supposed to.

In the unit editor you can set the abilities a unit possesses.

i was like u once well 4 weeks ago to be exact if u didnt undersantd what he said simply follow this:
1) select ur unit on unit editor
2)scroll down to abilities
3)add or remove an abilitie
4) if its an ability u would have to research i.e faerie fire use the Neutral hostiel skill

if u cant follow that ur a more noob than me

No No NO! You dont understand. I know how to change his skills. But i DONT WANT to change them. I want him to cast a blizzard, but his abilities have to remain the same. I make a trigger, and when it starts, he casts bliizzard. But he doesnt have blizzard in his skills and i dont want him to have blizzard.

- Place a non-player controled Archmage (or other unit with Blizzard) in the map, close to the position where the blizzard will be cast

- At map start, Hide the unit with Blizzard.

- When the trigger is activated, just order the Hidden unit to cast Blizzard. The Blizzard will appear from "nowhere".

- At the same time, order the Far Seer to play its Spell Animation several times while the Blizzard is falling from the sky...
