you can actually w or e away from his w if timed perfectly. You can bring almost the same roam values as him you can peel him off pretty easily. just make sure before you engage on his carries he's not in front of them or behind them because he might just w you away.
Amumu
Just poke him bit by bit. If he lands a q wait until the aftershock wears out then punish or engage on his adc and e return to yours. If he hits a q on your adc peel the amumu off with your w and make sure his 2nd w hits you instead by body blocking. mid to late just get merc you should be fine. you can also press r as you see him land a q on you so you can stop his engage.
Bard
this is your archnemesis in all stages of the game. play passive until 3 or 2 depending on your bot. As soon as you find him going for poke punish him as much as you can even if you have to use your flash. from mid to late. Don't wait on him to throw his ult first. you need to engage first so that his ult has to be either stoping you or your carries and not him getting picks.
Blitzcrank
you can dodge his q easily with e or w. you can also press r right before he q's you. don't tank the blitz q unless your ADC has no flash. it's not your job to help them dodge abilities.
Braum
Just make sure to tank the braum q and then e away.
Janna
Get a red trinket at the start of the game cuz you're going to need all the bushes so you can get to play on diagonales. don't face her straight on because she's just going to q you on repeat and poke you with her w. if you can an opportunity to use your flash and ignite so she flashes away. DO IT
Karma
make sure she w's you first then e away and w back in. whenever you are still in lanning phase. be careful of her q poke early don't underestimate it and just use your w to dodge it if she aiming at you.
Leona
Just poke with q early to prevent her from engaging on your ads. and if she e's on your adc just w the opponent ADC and e back. As soon as you get mercs she not a threat.
Lulu
take advantage whenever she uses her e either on you or ally or her bot to focus her.
Maokai
bait your body for his w and the flash w in your tower. His w follows you all the way. use this information to your advantage.
Morgana
just poke with q , dodge her q's. And roam you can really do much in the lane. By roaming, you might bring her out of the lane.
Nami
don't be afraid to jump her lv2 and early ignite if she is mispositioned. At 6 move towards her in a diagonal so she doesn't hit you with her ult.
Nautilus
he might look intimidating but it's honestly about who engages first. If he hits your adc use that as an opportunity to e to your adc and w on the opponent adc if you guys both all in the enemy ADC and hit your abilities you will most likely win.
Poppy
leave lane at 3 and never come back.
Shaco
shaco support is an instant dodge don't even bother he counters your entire kit. lv3 go roam
Senna
cry and after crying. try to abuse her taking stacks off your bot or you. Early ignite just to get her flash. if it doesn't work out. Cry more.
Shen
all you can do is poke him with your q and cry in this lane. you have to dodge his e as best as you can.
Seraphine
get lv 3 and roam, you can't reach her until 3 so you might as well be useful somewhere else.
Sona
from lv2 to 10 you have the upper hand as soon as she gets 11 you start losing the scale game. So make sure they prioritize the bushes with a red trinket. and find opportunities to flash w her whenever she tries to go for q poke. at 6 r early and do not run at her straight forward only run at her in diagonals.
Soraka
dodge her q no matter the cost and you will win the fight make sure not to engage if she has her q up and e.
Swain
abuse him, all in whenever you want, be careful at 6 if he has ult and zhonyas
Taric
Do people still play him as support?
... dodge his e.
Thresh
if he all in's lv 2. Don't be afraid to tank the q and all in the enemy ADC. if you hit your abilities. he's not op if the q lands on a target the ADC is not focusing.
Zyra
life is pain ... and this lane is pain. ward bushes and roam.
Yuumi
w engage during the early levels as soon as you get ignited or exhausted e back to your adc. if you're low in hp recall in the fog of war so they don't know you backed and do it all again as soon as you come back. Or roam. yuumi lanes tend to be summoner spell gaps all the time. So you just need to make sure to get rid of her spells before fighting.
Veigar
I would recommend banning this thing. don't position yourself too close to your ADC or else he will have an easy time just caging. Make sure to put yourself in a position where he would cage you instead of your ADC cuz you have an easier time escaping the veigar cage with your w or e.
Zilean
abuse him early because late game you have to focus him before anybody else like a soraka.
Yasuo

As Rakan, you always want to be in the limelight. So make **** happen, don't take your support role as if you're allowed to stay behind your ADC and wait. Instead, always look for opportunities to get the opponents summoners or roam to get the lanners summoners and for your jungler to secure easy ganks.
In lane pay attention to the minions, the enemy bot is trying to cs. If you can see an opening as he is about to last hit at lv 2 just flash in and ignite early. If your adc is barely paying attention he will focus the adc you're trying to get the sums out of. Remember you're not aiming to get a kill you're aiming to get that ADC's flash if you do get a kill all the better. But by getting his flash you relieve a lot of the pressure in the lane and open opportunities for your jungler to gank or for you to roam and leave your adc with a summoner spell advantage.
if you want to win play with the winners
As the support, you're always trying to help everybody in your team but the reality is you should only be helping out the winners, not the losers.
If you see someone dying multiple times in the lane DO NOT HELP THEM! they are gone and you can not salvage them. Instead of doing nothing help the lane that is doing great. For example, if your bot is 0/2 your mid is 0/0 and your top is 1/0. GO HELP TOP doesn't matter if it's the furthest lane from your initial lane go support that guy instead. By helping a lane that is already ahead Your also compensating by making one of their champions really weak. so you're adc or another lane won't have a problem fighting them
