Clan Wars CTF

Hello!
I have been working on this map for a few reasons. I wanted a hero based war3 game that wasnt all about last hit micro, farming gold for an hour, and knowing what item combos are the best. The few games I have played of this map so far have only lasted about 10-20 minutes, but the entire time is full of action(hero fights,flag captures, etc). I am very suprised at the end of a game to see only 20 minutes played. Most people that have tried it say they like the map, but needs items. That is the main complaint lately, "WHERE ARE THE ITEMS!".

What the map is like:
Clan Wars CTF is a capture the flag style map. Both teams have a flag, you need both defense and offense to win.
-Gold tick
Every 10 seconds, everyone in the game gets gold, which can be increased or decreased based on certain conditions.
-Orbs
Both teams get an 'Orb' which they use to capture 'Orb Shrines'. When your team captures an orb shrine , your entire team gets a movement speed increase and more gold per gold tick. Right now there are 4 orb shrines that all give you a speed bonus. I was thinking of making each shrine give you something different, like attack speed, move speed, hp regen, mana regen. Or maybe depending on the class of hero that drops the orb inside the shrine , the aura would be different(healer = hp regen,tank = +armor aura, etc).

The heros:
-Classes
As of right now there are 6 classes (tank,healer,fighter,mage,archer,hybrid) and both sides have their own version of the class. For example one side's mage is a Magician, where the other side's mage is a Sorcerer. You get 10 skill points to spend on the abilities you want. If you dont like your hero or abilities you can purchase a respec or repick stone.
-Balance
Right now I have a 20 point balance system where each point is worth one of the following: 5 mana, 20 hit point, 1 damage.
Each hero starts with a base of 200 hp, 20 mana, 30 damage
So for example my healer class has 8 hp points, 2 damage points, 10 mana points, so his totals would be: 360 hp, 32 damage, 70 mana
I need to make another balance system for attack speed and armor, where move speed is the same on all hero.



Just about everything on this map is complete except the following:
-A good multiboard
-Unique item system
-Supporting graphics


Basically at this point I am just looking for people to help test the map, give suggestions, and give any other kind of feedback.

Also:
If anyone would be interested in doing some graphics like a load screen or something cool like that, just let me know!

I'm eager to get some of my drawing skills across to the community. I would be happy to make some icons/screens etc for you. Of course I'd need to know exactly what you what want me to draw, but with the supplied information I can get started! My only favour-in-return is that you give credit.

Attached is a sample picture I made for my upcoming RPG.
