Patch 2.0 (December 30th, 2021)

New Features:
Version 2.0 introduces a new game mode with custom races! These races are based on creations by members of Hive, specifically from a large project named Ultimate Battle.

The new races are:
- Dalaran
- Blood Elves
- Forsaken
- Naga

These new races will not mix with the current, established races in the "classic" game mode.

Changes made since version 2.0 TEST:
Some of you reading this might may know there was a test version around for quite a while, and since it was just an early test I didn't want to write down all changes. However, due to the fact V2.0 TEST became the most played version I've decided to list some of the major changes to the new races anyway:

Dalaran:
 

• Increased HP on all Dalaran units (not including elementals and heroes).
• Dalaran's shared Mana Shield spell has been removed.
• Geomancer has been removed.
• Magician has been removed.
• Aqua Elemental has been removed from the Kirin Tor Operative.
• Apprentice, Arcanist and Pyromancer have received new tier 3 spells.
• Arcane Curator (hero) has been removed.
• Spell Officer (hero) has been removed.
• New hero: Elementalist.
• New hero: Mage.
• New unit: Kirin Tor Guardian.
• New unit: Kirin Tor Curator.
• New unit: Rock Golem.

Blood Elves:

• Removed racial special buildings from Blood Elves.
• Red Cavalry has been removed.
• Air Charger has been removed.
• Monitor has been removed.
• New Unit: Dragonhawk Rider.
• New Unit: Arcane Guardian.
• New Unique Unit (only one can be built): Phoenix.

Forsaken:

• Dark Rogue's Phase Strike spell now makes the unit invisible instead of increasing attack damage and armor.
• Gorgon has been removed.
• Wraithblade has been removed.
• Bone Walker has been removed.
• New unit: Abomination with hook spell.

Naga:

• All units except casters now have individual "Evolve" upgrades.
• Water Dragon has been removed.
• New unit: Murloc Warrior.

General:

• The map has received an entire re-skin for the terrain on classic graphics.
• Support for custom HD models (Reforged) has been dropped. This is due to both the sheer size of the models as well as the lack of variety. However, you can still turn on and play with Reforged graphics on this map.
• Players' main building now has the Reveal ability, which allows them to reveal any part of the map at the cost of 25 gold.
• Units can be sold for 100% of their price before entering the battlefield the first time. After entering the battlefield their sell price goes down to 75%.

Balance:

• All units' attack speed reduced by 30%.
  Note: Previously spells from supportive casters gave little-to-no value in mid-late game scenarios due to high damage units slaughted waves very fast. Especially casters with buffs and debuffs were not seen as much as units with pure damage output. This change is a step towards more vibrant playstyles.
• Wave timer has been increased to 34 seconds, up from 26 seconds.
  Note: Though this change was necessary even before the attack speed nerf, it is now needed to an even greater extend.
• Unit lifespan increased to 130 seconds, up from 96 seconds.
  Note: Increased because of the wave timer change.
• The Fortress and Watch Tower have been moved further apart from each other.
• Watch Tower total HP reduced to 1200, down from 2000.
• Watch Tower attack interval increased to 0.30 seconds, up from 0.20.
• Fortress attack interval increased to 0.50 seconds, up from 0.40.
• Fortress now deals splash damage.
• Item sell price increased to 75% up from 50%.
• Reduced supportive casters' cast time to 0.1 second. In addition, casters now consistently move across the battlefield once they've finished casting. This is mostly related to unit casting buff spells, i.e. Inner Fire, Anti-Magic Shell and the like.
• Increased scan range on hero crowd control abilites to search further for enemy heroes.

Human:

• Phoenix Egg revive now takes 20 seconds, up from 10 seconds.
• Aerial Shackles damage per second reduced to 15, down from 30.
• Spellbreaker gold cost increased to 155, up from 145.

New Features:
Version 2.0 introduces a new game mode with custom races! These races are based on creations by members of Hive, specifically from a large project named Ultimate Battle.

The new races are:
- Dalaran
- Blood Elves
- Forsaken
- Naga

These new races will not mix with the current, established races in the "classic" game mode.

General:
 

• The map has received an entire re-skin for the terrain on classic graphics.
• Support for custom HD models (Reforged) has been dropped. This is due to both the sheer size of the models as well as the lack of variety. However, you can still turn on and play with Reforged graphics on this map.
• Players' main building now has the Reveal ability, which allows them to reveal any part of the map at the cost of 25 gold.
• Units can be sold for 100% of their price before entering the battlefield the first time. After entering the battlefield their sell price goes down to 75%.

Balance:

• All units' attack speed reduced by 30%.
  Note: Previously spells from supportive casters gave little-to-no value in mid-late game scenarios due to high damage units slaughted waves very fast. Especially casters with buffs and debuffs were not seen as much as units with pure damage output. This change is a step towards more vibrant playstyles.
• Wave timer has been increased to 35 seconds, up from 26 seconds.
  Note: Though this change was necessary even before the attack speed nerf, it is now needed to an even greater extend.
• Unit lifespan increased to 130 seconds, up from 96 seconds.
  Note: Increased because of the wave timer change.
• The Fortress and Watch Tower have been moved further apart from each other.

• Fortress attack interval increased to 0.50 seconds, up from 0.40.
• Item sell price increased to 75% up from 50%.
• Reduced supportive casters' cast time to 0.1 second. In addition, casters now consistently move across the battlefield once they've finished casting. This is mostly related to unit casting buff spells, i.e. Inner Fire, Anti-Magic Shell and the like.

Human:
