When i first started using the world editor to mess around with the maps, i went in blind and knew nothing and spent months trying to figure out how to modify spells and units, turns out the object editor is one of the most crucial parts in mapmaking

If you can make custom abilities, you are done with most of the map, as terrains are easy. videos like this one is rare, as people show off instead of teaching

(it is jass not jazz, sorry for correcting you mate) but yeah, such a shame there's not many jass tutorial out there, hopefully someone also triggered (no pun intended) to make tutorial covering about making custom spells using jass methods :/
