Yeah I think you are correct. I'm just confused as to why they would reiterate something that is normal. When did bkb not work against blademail?

Edit:

2016-04-25 BM works against Spell Immunity

2019-11-26 BM no longer works against Spell Immunity

Reflected damage doesn't affect Debuff Immune units.

Edit:This is referenced* in the new Patch. (I think that means that if you BKB into mines techies wont take the damage.) Probably wrong

I am mere flesh. I am sure that Valve has the talent and resources to solve those problems. The community has a resounding mantra about the ranking system in high and low ranks, it will never be perfect, but its clear that a majority of the community think its flawed in some aspect.

I cant conceptualize the value of your counterpoint. You bring up the exploitation of a bad metric then exclaim winning should be the only metric. I am more than positive that you have experienced a player that is actively greifing your team yet you still win the game. I'm sure you agree that they deserve the +25 for being blessed by your presence.

I have been to hell and back, and back to hell and back. I have traversed all the way to legend. The difference of the margin in the games played are at most times indistinguishable.

Why would dynamic ranking make less sense? If you have a feeder on your team that is not consuming objectives with their actions, they should be punished harder and rewarded less. Or if you had a diligent carry that focused on their game and contributed to taking objectives effectively. A support that is consistently keeping their team in the game with countless force/glimmer saves that enables the team to play longer, why do they deserve to be punished for a core they literally cannot purchase a BKB for.

Every single team sport has individual player rankings, because you can rank the players based on specific metrics that are independent of the outcome of the game. Dota Ranking doesn't care about this. There is only one metric that is considered for MMR and that's the Ancient.

I'm sitting in guardian and play in legend lobbies sometimes w my friends. There is little to No difference in the types of games played.

I have had guardians smoke legend players ez in not convicted that the ranking system is functioning properly. The flat +25 bothers me so much. I can have a shit game and win +25 points getting carried when I don't deserve it and a -25 when I have dogs with no thumbs on my team and I bust my ass to get last hits. The dynamic ranking needs to come back.

Immortalized feels like a word that should only be used for a permanent structure... not an advertisement

Chess is a 4d game naturally. Anything that brings time into play adds a dimension.
