So, I actually wanted to share this one on here when it was posted a month ago but thought that it was too flashy for some viewers to watch it properly and too stylized to recognize some of the cats. I just saw it once back then but after seeing it again now, my confusion finally turned into understanding. The song, which is by the band this MAP is themed on, is awesome and the character design is very creative. We need even more TBC MAPS!

The Imposter's various designs here are all really interesting, really dipping into that undead demon aspect of his character. Feels like a great non-literal expression of what he is, a parasitic embodiment of death. That said, I don't understand the question mark on Shadowsight's chest.
Also, wow, small world, I knew one of the animators in it from a long while ago. Funny to see them pop up again like this.

What’s up with the head bobbing? Cool map with good song. Not really a fan of these type of character designs (so extra, looks like someone’s fursona?), but it works well with the overall design of the project.

Based on who they're themed after....the implications are funny and kinda weird. Nice designs though.

Sorry for this rather late reply but I actually just found the original animation this MAP concept was based on and the dog character which Shadowsight's design is based on has a question mark on his collar (probably because he's not a normal dog).

I know this response is very late but both the head bobbing and designs are based on the original animation video this MAP was inspired by. It's simply a stylistic choice.

It is kinda strange. Like its a creative crossover, but I can't see Lewis as Ashfur at all. And it's even weirder because Bristlefrost is supposed to be Vivi, but Vivi is in love with Lewis...Also Shadowsight is based off Mystery, but Mystery is actually a kitsune that's disguised as a dog. I think this works better if it's just viewed as surface level only, and not other references.

Otherwise, as you've said before, the implications would be funny (or rather weird), if the storyline from the original animation reflected that of this Warrior Cats MAP, besides the designs.
