keep in mind that levels right now are pretty useless, since the war3 ladder is filled with hacks (or it was afew months ago).

Levels only mean something right after a reset, or afew years back. Now all the best players only play on ggc and such, not on bnet really, except for that one week for the SC2 beta key tournament. maybe when the ladder resets soon there will be good players but until then, 90% of ladder is just newbs who mass game

its like if koreans/top players suddenly didnt play iccup anymore, you would have such a greater range of people, where someone could probably get B- with just mass gaming. Thats how war3 is now, since all the best players moved to other servers, the average players are on top now and the bad players are in the middle ranks, and they wouldnt mean much anymore.

I don't plan on playing war3 again but for curiosity sake ... how the fuck to you stop a blademaster harass, where do you get detection?

You can use wisp detonate to kill his mana making him unable to windwalk again, it also stops him from getting experience when he attacks them.

But other than that detection is a lot rarer to get in warcraft 3 than in starcraft, the normal way is to get dust of appearance. (Item you get on your hero)

Read through these to understand the basic mechanics you missed:

Warcraft III uses a dual level system: On the one hand, the displayed one and on the other the estimated one. The matchmaking uses the estimated level, not the actual one.

If you start off 3-0 for example, your estimated rating might be something like lv 35, so the system will pair you with players who are also estimated 35, so they might be 5,10,25 or 35. Therefore, the displayed level is firstly stating how much you play, and only secondly how good you are.

level 12 is terrible and winning without a hero should be impossible, it's hilarious that you beat anyone.

and there is very little you can do against the Blademaster, hence one of the retarded imbalances in the game.

Playing without Heroes is like a form of BM if you know you rape your opponent or something'?
