Unlimited gold+Abiltiy to attract Avatars makes this map joke in term of difficulty. You also already have some spells researched. Then there is big portion of map with heroes but enemy Keeper will go agressive on them and kill every single hero on map basicly if you dont push to hero section fast enough. Also not being able to control your creatures at start of map makes no sense.

Weird map. You're showered with gems right at the beginning with 2 more in a narrow path you won't use anyway. You have to research hand/slap for some reason, and as Loobinex said you can attract 5 avatars and can spam Hornies if that's not enough. There is even a Multiply special so that you can go massively overkill. The map is functionnal, kinda, and can be a fun map for people who want to play slow then end in a massive final battle.

Also, Blue has two random outposts and the cave in the middle is massive but almost empty.

Somebody should've told Ian that if you make a map for the first time, you don't have to share it. If it fails, try something else, don't put it on the internet. I think Ian wanted to the heroes to have a dungeon, use the rooms, attract heroes through portal, everything. This doesn't work. The result is a bad map. It would have suffered from 'powerful room syndrome' with gems/prison/torture readily available, but I did not bother to turn imprisonment on. The avatars that were supposed to join white, now joined me, so I had 6 avatars and 4 reapers from my temple before I even reached my portal limit. Blue had a powerful army and had already destroyed the white dungeon, but there's not much that can stand up to an army of reapers and avatars, so I just cast CTA on the blue hearth and waited for the victory.
