There is still a slight possibility of DotA 6.79d map as some players reported to have lose control of their hero in middle of the game. If you encounter any bug and find it annoying, report it to IceFrog. The DotA 6.79c AI will take time port due to new in-game mechanics and heroes that were added in v6.78.

P.S. The secret quest has been removed in this map.
