Pure damage
Pure damage is a type of damage in Dota 2 that cannot be reduced. It is applied directly to a hero's HP and is not affected by external factors, making it extremely effective against any target.
This type of damage cannot be blocked by items or abilities that reduce physical or magical damage. Pure damage is used to bypass enemy defenses and is especially dangerous against heroes with high physical or magical resistance.
