Hiya fulla. First off, i would fix that warden skin. Its dated, and its alpha channels are out of wack. A little editing would do it good.
My first impression looks a lot like tides of blood. What are you doing to make this unique? The only AOS maps that survive have a distinct taste of atmosphere and gameplay.
What I find truly interesting is the new minimalist approach. Just yesterday you were using stock allstars heroes just to each a minimum number of heroes, and now your hi-res skins indicate less heroes. This change intrigues me, what was the idea behind this transition?
Good luck fulla, if you ever need a CD-key for beta testing, just ask.
@THE_END. Looks like you're pretty popular as of late

Give priest a new skin or replace his model. Priest's original skins don't blend with the rest of the custom skins.

I strongly disagree, maybe not in this specific situation but in general. A map should always have a flavor or style. people tend to get hung up on "custom crap=good end of story". Throwing together random skins does nothing for the atmosphere. I like to use a mix of stock content and custom content as long as its esthetically pleasing. Sorry for the mini-rant, but I get hounded on not the aesthetic quality of a hero, but oftentimes if its custom or not.
Though in this case, I agree. the priest looks very out of place among the earth tones and blues. Come to think of it, the heroes look somewhat monotonous. Some red or brighter colors might highlight your roster better, and wont be overpowered by the bright sand terrain. Any skinner knows that just a little contrast can cure a muddy look, and its the same case with your hero list.
