Open the map with MPQMaster
Extract the war3map.w3u
Open a new map in WE
Object Manager
Units tab
File>Import Custom Unit Data...
(Find the extracted war3map.w3u)
Make your changes
Save
(I don't remember if there's an export button. You can export if possible, or save the map, open with MPQMaster, and extract the war3map.w3u)
Replace the war3map.w3u in the original map with the new one
Operations>Compact(Flush)
Done!

Dammit, I forgot that DotA is widgetized.
Here's what you do to get the war3map.w3u:

Download Silk Object Console: http://forum.wc3edit.net/download/file.php?id=4980
Decompress the .zip
Rename DotA to MyMap.w3x
Place it in SOC's folder, with the .exe
Run the .exe in the folder
Done!

If you need to use a different listfile, open Config.ini, set EXTERNAL_LISTFILE=listfile.txt (change listfile.txt to match the filename of your listfile, place the new listfile in SOC's folder, and save. Then run it.

After that, you can just extract the war3map.w3u!
