1. I want to modify model of some decorations. That would change their data, but the model is with in SC2 and the map remains a melee map - at least the editor say so. Is this permitted?
2. Is there any restriction on adding neutral units on map?
3. I want to join the mappers' circle discord server, but the invitation on contest 19 is expired now.

1. as long as the map remains melee, then yes this is allowed in the tlmc as far as I know

2. Neutral units are not allowed, neither are hostile units, they don't show on the minimap or in the fog of war, so players won't know they are there.

Thanks for reply! But little animals in Ancient Cistern and Hecate are neutral units. I wonder if more types are allow.

Critters are allowed, if that's what you mean.

Thank you so much for the information.
+ Show Spoiler +
Modifying decoration models in SC2 is generally allowed, as long as the map remains a melee map. However, you should be cautious about modifying gameplay-relevant elements. 2. There are typically no restrictions on adding neutral units, but they shouldn't disrupt the core gameplay. 3. As for joining the mappers' circle Discord, you may need to look for a new invite link from a community member or official source. Balancing work and writing a thesis is no small task, so I decided to seek help. I found this https://academized.com/write-my-thesis service online, and it was amazing. The thesis was well-researched, written professionally, and delivered on time. It gave me the time I needed to focus on other responsibilities without compromising on quality. I’m so grateful for their support and would recommend them to anyone in need.
