We're excited to announce the models and assets that made Warcraft III an amazing universe to explore are now available in the StarCraft II PTR.
This brings over three thousand new materials for the amazing Arcade development community to work with, including new hero models for the 4 primary races, all of the original Warcraft III models including neutral creatures and their sounds as well as doodads, structures, spell effects, ambient sounds, music and custom user interfaces for each race.
We are so excited to see what our community is going to make that we wanted to give you a head start. Once these assets become available to the public, we are going to spotlight the best content in what we are calling, “Memories of War.” The PTR is your chance to start playing with your new tools and to start making amazing experiences.
What are some of your favorite moments in Warcraft’s history? Whether it’s from the first opening of the dark portal in Warcraft: Orcs and Humans to Grommash leading the Iron Horde in Warlords of Draenor, we want to see it recreated in the StarCraft II editor. We’d love to see anything from screenshots of epic battles, single-player missions recreated from your favorite game, mini-games using the new assets or anything in-between. However you want to celebrate, we want to see it. Send us a link to your creations at Arcade@Blizzard.com or tweet to us @BlizzardArcade.
To access the StarCraft II PTR, simply select it from the Region/Account dropdown on the Battle.net desktop home screen and begin the installation. Once it’s complete, you can click on the ‘Launch Editor’ next to the ‘Redeem a Code’ or launch the editor directly by navigating to your StarCraft II Public Test folder.

Some russian dude is already porting WC3 in SC2 with these assets, there's a 40-minute video in the WC3 thread where you can see the first mission of WC3's prologue. Edit : I do agree that the NE ones are not very well made.
