ultimate = voodoo curse = throws a damn curse into the target. the curse deals 25 dark damage and removes 15 manapoints of the target per second. if the cursed unit casts a spell it takes 75 magical damage and is stunned for 1 second. Lasts 10 seconds.

I think spell 2 and 4 together are too powerful, something cool would be if you made them share cooldown, therefore the mage would have to take the decision of which spell would be the most efficient in that specific situation.
However your tooltips are still awful, you have you check both grammars and spelling.

I think it`s better make them weaker instead of cooldown share. . .
and it`s not smart to use both at same time. it`s better you first curse and if the enemy tries to escape the you throw the god damn curse.

my grammar is bad because I writte very fast.
it`s better written in my map...shame

I like the skills a lot, they synergize fairly well.

In my opinion though, skill 2 seems pretty overpowered. It's a double-disable that also deals damage. Combine that with his other skills and you have a crazy-op hero. I would suggest either removing the damage or changing it in someway. I like the concept though.

The greater ultimate (Circle of Death) is my favorite. That's a cool skill.

I think the abilities are all pretty cool. However having them all on one hero would make him a bit OP, skill 2 has just too much going on for a normal ability. It is sort of lingering between a normal skill and an ultimate

I would suggest you allow a way for the enemy to avoid the stun or something, and make the damage a little less intense.

The upgrades on the greater ultimate seem nerfed compared to the others. Is it channel?

The voodoo troll/mage/doctor is overdone, try making it something else. Sounds like many Heros iv seen before.

maybe skills 2 is really overpowered. maybe I`ll reduce damage or just remove the stunning damage, only having the impact damage.

same name don`t means same heroes.

it`s not channeling.
thats why I`m going to releasse beta version (exclusively on this forum) for decent people to test and say what`s good, whats overpower, and else.
(I`m not going to release beta for public out of this forum cause the majority of them will just try to compare my map with Dota, and what I want is to compare my map with my map, no other map)

I dunno why people are discussing balance, they have no idea what the map is about. As for rating the hero, I would rate it very highly. The abilities are very unique, synergize well, seem to stick well to the theme of the hero.
But how you're going to make a bilities like that.. haha, they're beyond my skill!

thanks for giving it a high note.

and most of these abilities are easy when you create your map thinking on them.

for example, a thing that makes everything easier for me is using a single trigger for dealing all damage in my map, by this trigger I can check buffs to increase, reduce or block damage.

the trigger that counts damage dealed by ward, makes doll absorb damage and reduce resistance of enemies with the circle of death are all in the same trigger.

(this trigger will get so big and messed up when I create my 20th hero that I don't know If im going to be able to find something inside it
