        Think of it like this; if you and a random both want a core roll, and that guy insists on getting it, then chances are he sucks at supporting. Even if you are a better core than the random, you are likely a WAY better support than that random. I would rather have a bad teammate in their best role than have a bad teammate in a role they are bad at.

        Just play CM, Shadow Shaman, Lion and Elder Titan and you will get through calibration no problem.

          play well l0l

          pick high impact support heroes. pick depush against push, ww against clickers, dazzle etc

          understand how you can enable a core to succeed. tinker needs a glimmer or force, but tb or ls just needs a solar crest. enemy huskar might need a vessel more than ur ally needs anything. dont buy meme items like random eulses AGHS (lmaooo) and blinks on low impact trashcan heroes like rubick

            whatever u decide, spam that role in normal games, i think matchmaking try match ppl who play different roles together, i had problems on playing offlane , after i played a while no more problems to pick my role, 90% of games!

                  Normal skill no need of support so if u have to play support play some sup which can turn to core late game

                      playing support is Beta, reaal Alpha play CARRY position 1 or even 0!

                        It's been confirmed multiple times by now that the new calibration depends solely on Wins / Losses and not on Performance in any way. You can pick LITERALLY ANY ROLE with LITERALLY ANY KDA/ GPM / XPM and it D O E S N O T M A T T E R.
                        If you win : +50 - 75 MMR, If you lose: -50 - 75 MMR. That's it.

                        I only play pos 4 / 5 and I played support only during my calibration as well. Went 6 W - 4 L and got 150 MMR, irrespective of how I performed.

                          @Op: Don't ever watch rawdota, there are several better things to do. Watch replays of liquid.gh for learning pos 4 things and practise in demo/unranked later tryhard for ranked. For pos 5 it's very tough to learn this role unfortunately, there is not much good content of this , try watching insania on twitch though he might not have a lot of content, the little he has done explains a lot. Pos 5 is like the black box in dota.
