FPS games are popular in Indian gamers but I played CS source around 6-7yrs ago after that played only strategy and online games.All my local friends play only sport games or Action games , most of them hate rpg & rts games.
So if i played FPS means I was poor in strategy game ? NO! I knew difference between FPS/RTS/RPG..etc.
Whenever you play game you don't use skills of old game by default. Obviously you try to learn how to play new game.Same goes for those who are new to gaming. There is no point of dividing new players and also RPG/FPS not the only game genres people play. I played multiple genre games without any trouble.
Dota 2 have training feature now that helps a lot to new player. Previously it was not there so players had to start pub matches to learn and I am sure you did that and start feeding. Even if you learn all basics before starting pub match, you can't easily avoid feeding in early pub matches.Weather someone like it or not but feeding can't be avoided in pub matches. If someone hate feeders then use team matches where you have little chance of getting feeder in match,at least not in your side.I seen some players with old MOBA experience feeding or playing bad. And players I believed to be pros as first were not so good when I observed their matches against real pros(?). So anyone can be feeder when opponent is better or your team have coordination problem. Its funny to see words "annoying noobs" here.

I know what you mean and yea its harsh, thats what makes mmo games community a scary place too.
But almost all of us (those who have been playing game since yr or so) hate only 1 thing : When new players dont like to take advices.
I mean, its ok to be new, its ok to make mistakes once/ twice/ thrice.... but neglecting those advices and getting pwned constantly and then criticizing game is what makes us mad.
Games like cs/ cod/ any other game of such genre dont have much in it. I mean, even if you are playing in an unbalanced team, its still fun. I used to play TF2/COD all day and never complained to players to play good.
But not with DOTA, spending those never ending 40- 50 mins in an useless match is annoying.....very annoying.
I love this
Me too in queue for this.
Will change the distro if its required on the basis of feedbacks (for various distros).

Does the matchmaking have any kind of algorithm? Like, players with low levels get matched with other players around the same level.

Yea.. there is an algo behind it. And its getting improved time after time (thats what Valve says and yea, there IS a difference between matchmaking results 1-2 yr ago and these days)
So, yea, you'd be fine even when playing on your own, but I'd still highly recommend you to first play/practice against bots.
Even Valve is encouraging new players to play tutorials/ vs bots first, that they have started giving random items drops (just like public matches) .
And whenever you pot a question here regarding game, I'm 101% sure you'll get answers more than you wished for

Yeah, I'm playing with bots first these days. The tutorial is actually very good. I thought I would have to read some tutorials online like previous year (which was what put me off back then). Glad that they added it now.Yea.. there is an algo behind it.

ganking / support build:
Urn, phase boots, BKB,Skull basher (turned into abyssal) Heavens Halberd, HoT
carry build:
Phase boots, Vanguard, Helm of Dominator (turned into Satanic), Skull basher( " " ), Armlet/ Heavens Halberd
You can try many other items too, those were my personal preference^^
Some other interesting items I've seen on a good NS player
Arcane boots
Sange and Yasha
Euls Scepter of Divinity (that perma 30 movt speed bonus makes him even more devastating and not to forget that 2.5 secs disable. This item is for those who prefer other boots instead of phase boots)
Hood of Defiance (when there are many magical damage dealers in enemy team. I too once made it when Zeus, Tinker and Gyro were in same team)

Are you downloading test client? Main client have not been updated yet. It will be tonight or tomorrow. Better start downloading on Sunday-Monday. Because expect little patches because of some minor bug fixing, So for this small amount of download your entire download will be restarted.

I think the Main client will take some time, so I am trying out the test client.
considerable time will go on reviewing abaddon once it is introduced in main as it is a popular hero. Also, Legion is following after that as well .
