12 for both versions, RoC and TFT, of their blockbuster game Warcraft III.
Several abusable things have been removed both from classic "Reign of Chaos" and "The Frozen Throne". Creep abuse has been reduced by removing the "Rune of Rebirth" from Gnoll Wood in TFT and adding anti-air creeps to Tranquil Paths in RoC.
Surprisingly, Humans had a few changes which all strengthen the race, Nightelf and Undeads have been barely changed and Orcs had some mixed changes.
As usual, you can get the patch by connecting to battle.net, but also from Blizzard as file for RoC and TFT.
Here is the complete change log:
