Think about it. In real life, if you block something, you still actually get hit, just not as bad. If you dodge something, you don't get hit all. This works in the land of pixels as well.

So the fact you still receive damage when blocking actually makes perfect sense. As late in the game as most people are, block stats are becoming increasingly important. A very high block rune and a few block saints on a hero can make them very tough.
