Then why didn’t it appear as one?

After dirks death in collide did he have to be revived by Jane since it was heroic?

He didn’t resurrect on his own, ergo, it was Heroic. It didn’t appear because… Things were going super fast and everyone was kind of coming and going? Like, Jane got knocked out, but because we didn’t see any ‘KO’ or ‘HEROIC’ labels we were panicking about her well being. Similarly, Rose and Jake died and got brought back so having the ‘Heroic’ label pop on them to be brought back a few frames later would be dumb.

I mean it’s the final battle, come on, literally every death counts as Heroic/Just because that’s just how Final Battles work. If the Immortality protected you in such a situation, the Heroic/Just thing would make no sense.
