question about spell damage

it's pretty simple, but I'm not quite sure about it:
I'm about to create a passive ability to reduce spell damage.
so I modified the Spell Damage Reduction ability to my needs.
During my tests e.g. a Blizzard still drained 15 hp. Should have been about 12 only with the ability researched.
weird. Now my question to you, my friends, who know far more about damage systems in Wc3/TFT than I do, is whether hero abilities such as Blizzard, Carrion Swarm, Shock Wave, Flame Strike, etc. can actually be classified as 'spell damage', if they can be classified at all. Can they?
Is it possible to have a unit have normal hitpoints against the usual attack types, but a bit extra against those hero abilities?

Hero spell do spell damage. You may have made a mistake when modifying/adding your damage reduction ability.
