Like everyone is a born dota2 pro. I hate this kind of attitude. No offense meant though.
Pros are born after being hammered upon in the forge of battle.

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.this is no click and shoot game.
BTW, regarding your statement about new players: there are two types who have played many games in the form of RPG/FPS and the other new to PC gaming. For the first type I would suggest at first watch more games/youtube videos than playing. For second type no offence but learn how to click, then play with bots then play in multiplayer.
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.If one feeds(which is the general case with newbies) then no matter how good other 4 players are 99% chance your team will loose. Cause there are some late game heroes who if farmed cant be stopped.

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

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. 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![]()
And, thanks all for the advice![]()
Just started DOTA 2, do I really have to go through the tutorials ?

Yeah, Started the download yesterday. Strangely, the download restarted today :/
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.
Looks like Techies will have to wait. Abaddon is coming.
