Ashe
Ashe's slow allows her to draw out early fights, which is really bad for us since we can't do much damage beyond our initial burst.
Alistar
Alistar is just amazing for this. He can set up early fights with his cc, keeping enemies in your cask. His cc also helps keep the fights short, making them even more favourable. He's also great for tower diving if you are ahead, and can keep nasty enemies like Yi away from you with headbutt in the lategame.

Champion Build Guide
At level 3 you can do some small trades by going around their bot laner a little bit with Ambush (though not too far mind you, engaging from roughly the side should be fine), throwing Venom Cask and attacking up to three times with Hail of Blades. Then activate Contaminate while you disengage. Do not under any circumstance chase a kill with this build, as you are nearly incapable of finishing people off while Contaminate is on cool down. If the enemy tries to disengage do not go in further, instead just cast Contaminate and return to farming your lane. You base movespeed is not that high so it's unlikely you can even get in another basic attack when the enemy walks back, and you risk dying to a cc combo from their support.
use Ambush to walk into a good position, then use Venom Cask and Everfrost at the same time to root them in the poison circle. Get them to six stacks using Hail of Blades and finish them off with Contaminate. Do not chase them if they survive the combo. They can still die to Deadly Venom and you are really not capable of doing more damage beyond this. The combo for team fights is the same, except you activate Spray and Pray before Venom Cask.
Again make sure not to get too close to enemies. This includes positioning is a safe way to avoid getting flanked. It's still not necessary to chase kills as they are likely to die to Deadly Venom. If necessary you can walk forward a little bit to kill them with Contaminate, but basic attacks should not be needed - Venom Cask has a short enough cooldown to stack up Deadly Venom.
