Hard Support, day 10/10 (STRATZ). The summary, talents, and items are specific to the role; builds, duration, and matchups aggregate data from all roles because OpenDota does not report the player's role.
The rank applies to the summary and roles; builds, items, and matchups combine all ranks.
Abilities and talents
The most frequently used sequence for the first 10 levels, based on the 587 matches with known skill order across all roles and ranks.
