[SkyBreaker]

Looks like fun =) I'll have to try it out later tonight!

[TAhackdZ]

I've played it a few times now, its actually really fun.

Imagine if you could a combination of DOTA/HoN/LoL and WoW's 3v3 Arena....really good mix imo.

Fav character so far is def's Misery, the Astral Finish is just tooo many lolz (If you havent seen/heard it yet, pick Misery, and kill the last guy with your ulti....very funny.

v1.45 Updates

Balance

-Stallion's Frenzied Rage now temporarily slows enemies it hits instead of stunning.

New Hero: Aegis, the Stoic Observer (Support)

A: Fires a laser in the target direction. With higher charges, the laser will branch out into a small arc and hit multiple targets, or do more damage to a single target if most of the beams hit. Expends 1 charge per shot.

S: Summons a distortion field after 1 second in the targetted area, slowing and doing damage based on the charge level Aegis is at. Expends 5 charges.

D: Creates a barrier which blocks enemy attacks (non-AOE attacks) and additionally slows enemies who are inside of it. Each time the slow effect is applied it adds 1 level of charge to Aegis.

F: Freezes time completely for 5 seconds, both allies and enemies will be frozen. Enemies take drastically reduced damage for the duration of the effect. Chronolapse will interrupt many gatling-type fury attacks.

G: Escapes roots, snares, and stuns, splitting Aegis into 6 clones. 1 Hit will kill a clone and whenever a clone dies, Aegis gains 1 charge level.

R: Absorption (Slowly charges over time).

Idk why but it seems to lag 3v3, 1v1 is fine though. Like you hit a command, or move, and it does that 3seconds later.

I love playing smashcraft and recently, I do not see it under custom games anymore! :O
is it still there and where can i find it and play it?
i hope it has not been removed, has it?

[ZergGirl]

It was removed when Blizzard changed something in the map editor.

The SEA host is in Japan working for various relief organisations (afaik) and the creator wont let/doesn't trust anyone else host.
It's on NA/EU if you are able to play there :P

[PapaBigBelly]

Thanks zerg girl
NA HERE I COMEEEEEEEEEEE!
