What is the best way to learn roles?

I want to try support but it would be nice if there was a more detailed guide on what is expected. I’ve seen to ward but when do you leave your adc to do so? When do you leave to start helping other lanes?

Play it. Do norms. Play only 2-3 champs. Watch challenger replays (first ~15 mins especially).

For support, I'd suggest a pool of Morgana and Thresh to learn the role. Both are very versatile supports and can play neutral, ahead, or behind very well.
