Need design ideas

I'm working on a DotA-type map, except I want it to be smaller and faster and more fun. Since its smaller, I'm not sure howto setup the lanes. I was thinking 1-3 lanes maybe(would 1 be cool?) but I dont know how i should design them, so if anyone has any ideas, or if anyone would like to help out just PM me.


The lane design needs to go in the middle there

Why don't you just come up with a whole new concept all together? DotA's are getting rather... Modded. I know this becuase I have been PM'ed for help quite a few times all about a AoS Game. This is only IMO, but still. Consider...

I think you definitely need numerous lanes -- a full-frontal assault back and forth the entire game would make things dull and repetetive.

A "dota" where you see from the back of the unit and are fighting inside a dungeon/ruin would be cool.

Yet very laggy.
