I need to use a local Unit Type variable, i'm hunting for the name that needs to be declared, EX:

local unit deadcreep = GetTriggerUnit()

local unittype creeptype = GetUnitTypeID() doesn't work, neither does local unittypeid or any other variation i could think of.

common.j is your first stop for native issues. GetUnitTypeId() returns an integer (e.g. 'hfoo')

Instead.

It's an integer? Funky. I hate JASS.

Ability Id's are integers too, as well as unit-types.

No, unittype is an extension of handle. But that's for stuff like is a peon, or a structure.
