You can stop his engage with your E, yours Q true dmg in early can make him squishy.
Bard
You can roam with him, dodge his R and Q with your R and W and he should be easy to kill with your adc.
Blitzcrank
You can dodge his Q with your R or W but his R and E could be a bit problematic for all-ins

He can outdamage you on lane but you can dodge his skillshots with your W or R.
Janna
Her Q, E and R can hurt you when you try to engage, but she's squishy.

Basicaly only thing she can do to you is poke. Her shield is not big and you can easy go out her W range.
Lulu
Her W and R can both stop your engage, but she had long cooldowns and she's easy to kill with your adc.
Lux
She can do all you can do and do it better, but she's immobile and her abilites are not that hard to dodge with your R.
Morgana
Your W should eat her E so you have easy charms if she uses it before you try to hit E. After you buy everfrost you can just use it first and then charm champion without shield. You can dodge her Q/R with your R but if she can hit you someone will probably kill you.

Range, poke, cc, shields and heal - she can do everything better than you, but shes immobile and squishy.
Sona
She's annoying, can heal your poke and her R can stop your engage but it's not unplayable.
Soraka
Same as Sona - she can outheal your poke, stop your engage with her E, but she's easier to kill, her poke is easy to dodge and every charm on her should be kill for you or your teammate
Swain
His poke is better, his cc hurts more and when he gets lvl6 its almost unplayable if he knows what his champ does
Thresh
Try to not be on his melee range and dodge his Q with your W or R
Vel'Koz
more poke, more range but immobile and easy to kill
Veigar
His E is hard to dodge, he scales faster and more than you, his poke/dmg is bigger than yours - just try to do something pre 6 or roam to get kills and assist somewhere else
Vex
Dont let her poke you and charm her when she uses her R
Xerath
Crazy range with crazy dmg, he can cc you when you try all in
Yuumi
Try to dodge her Q, use your R when she uses her and get bush control to hit Es in her adc
Zyra
She can counter your E with her plants, she can easy root you when u use your R and use her to kill you. Play safe, roam and try to not give her kills.

She can be a bit hard to kill, but her abilites are easy to dodge with W or R

Xayah
Her self-peel can be enough to ruin your all-in but she shouldn't be big problem if you don't let her root you
Miss Fortune

Tristana
You can stop her agressive jump with your E and follow her running away jump with your R
Twitch
He has nothing but invisibility to deal with you
Ezreal
He can be very hard to catch and annoying but you should be able to follow his jumps and kill/poke him
Kai'Sa
Her damage can be high but she should be easy to catch. You can also try to charm her when she's using her R
Sivir
Her poke, push, R and E can ruin all your plans but she's not unbeatable
Jhin
You can easy dodge his W and R with your W but his damage can anyway be problematic
Kog'Maw
His support is probably your biggest problem on lane
Nilah
You can poke her a lot, charm her when she tries to all-in and easy run away with your R if needed

Biggest problem with her will be getting spoted with vision
Draven
His early damage, movement speed and cc can really hurt, better not to play agressive 2v2

Vayne
Invisibility on R, low cooldown on dash and high damage in teamfights. Try to catch her after her Q
Aphelios
Your only problem with him should be root on purple weapon
Varus
When he catches you with his R you should be dead but its the same if you catch him with E

Jinx
She can easy root enemies with her E after yours, but it's basicaly only special thing you can do together.
Kai'Sa
She can easy follow up your all in with her R. Your E should be enough to kill enemy or get their summs.
Kalista
You can use her R in agressive or deffensive way thanks to your own.
Kog'Maw
Your only peel tool is your E, You can't buff/heal/shield him.
Lucian
He can follow up your all in. His early dmg should be enough to finish off any squishy target you'll hit with your combo.
Miss Fortune
Her E can set up your E. She can use R when u go all in, but Ahri is single-target champion so it's never perfect combo for MF.
Neeko
All cc from you and Neeko should end up cc hell for enemies, but on-hit Neeko build needs time so it can ruin your gameplan to dominate lane against counters.

Sivir
You can set up kills for her Q and use her R for easy all in.

She has good all in potential and enough self-peel in kit, but still her favourite support will be enchanter
I love to play Ahri, I love to play support, so what can be better than playing your favourite champion on your favourite lane? In midlane she has a lot of counters, she has to be self reliant and all her carry potential can be ruined by one death. As support you don't have to always stay alive to do something! You can just go for important target in enemy team or take care of important target for enemies so they can't easy kill your carry. Sometimes even you can be carry if your team can't do anything! You're still midlane champ.
How to support as Ahri?
It's easy. You're just mobile Morgana. On lane try to get bush control for easy charms, make vision, poke enemies and roam if you can. Your early roams with your jungler or to help midlaner are very stong due to your cc and damage.
Later in game look for picks and take care of your carry whoever it is.
In teamfights You can stay backline and peel assassins off or go in with your R and Everfrost to slow and root enemies. Then just Charm important target and let your team finish them off or do it by yourself. Zhonya's Hourglass can be perfect item for this agressive playstyle! Bait enemies to attack you, charm them and use your Hourglass to let your team kill enemy.
Why Glacial?
Glacial is just realy funny keystone! Once you hit your E on enemies they can't deal their full dmg, can't easy run away after charm and helping teammate on glacial slows is just harder. Cosmic Insight keeps your Everfrost and charm on low cooldown, Biscuits can help you with mana or poke on lane.
It synergizes well with Everfrost and Rylai for even more slows and easier teamfights! You can also choose between free boots or stopwatch for faster items.
Anyway glacial is not only viable keystone for support ahri and sometimes it's not the best one to choose.
