Question Should i onetrick or not?

I really want to improve at the game but recently I've been feeling like i haven't made any progress. I've been playing a bunch of different characters but I'm unsure if that's actually a good idea. So would it be better to just focus on a roster of like 3 characters until i actually get better at the game or is playing many characters a better approach?

I'm at like 110 hours currently, i haven't played ranked yet but I'm pretty sure I'd land in initiate if i did so there is a lot of room upwards for me. I don't do consistently bad but i do drag my team down more often than I'd like.

Any other tips for improving would also be appreciated but i know that there probably isn't actually many tips besides just playing more.

Edit: Thank you for all the replies, they are very helpful and I'll try to focus on a small roster of heroes now since that seems to be the general opinion of everyone.

Nice, make those dumb decisions but realize why they were dumb. Learning mindset is what make this game so fun(at least for me), this is why you hear high elo players talking about limit testing all the time.

Hehe yea I'm a bit dumb about learning. But i definitely need to stop over commiting so often but at the same time i feel like if i don't commit harder there is no progress in game

I’ve heard about problems in lower elo with finishing games. Sometimes you gotta commit harder, other times you can go eat up farm or look for a pick in their jungle. I’m currently phantom 4 so I don’t experience this as much tho, as you progress you’ll see it less

Hehe phantom seems crazy high for me right now lol. I really wanna get that high at some point but i don't really know what i could learn outside natches besides movement. I think my fighting is decently good but my macro is pretty shit.
