I dont play ranked anymore, due to my experience there. I am 2.6k, calibrated at 2.7k, on my newest account and had a previous account that I calibrated at 1.8k and rose to 2.2k, dropped to 1.9k and went up and down everything inbetween. I completely admit im not a great player but I truly believe my MMR is not that low. I have no idea what to do in ranked, no matter what I pick I have a hard time every game. I pick cores more than I pick supports because I trust myself more than other people (especially in ranked) to carry a game and make the right calls. I find the enviroment in ranked is a lot more toxic than regular games and find less enjoyment out of it, but I really want to hit 3k solo and I dont know how to gain MMR. I am 3.3k Party, and the friends I did calibrating with were 1.8k-2k and I find things a lot easier in that level, I can predict the movements of the average player, and help my friends when they should be getting back and when to push/gank/rosh etc. I cannot seem to do this in ranked. Even when I do know what to do, nobody ever seems to listen to me (I use a mic) and im not sure if its because im young, they cant hear, think they're right or whatever. Playing solo just feels so difficult and I feel like there is no way to gain MMR in my position.

Here is a link to my Dotabuff ranked games, feel free to look at my unranked, although I clown around a lot when playing with friends or fun teammates. If anybody has any suggestions I'd be willing to hear them and appreciate all the help
