how do you lane with an autofilled support?

i just want to play my favourite role which is ADC/supp without putting myself and my team at a disadvantage cause i didnt go premade, i already want to go afk when the enemy pick lulu/janna+hypercarry and its even worse when my support is autofilled and i just hope my team surrenders at 15 as its faster then dodging and waiting 30 mins. i might aswell just choose top+mid and hope my team has a premade bot as thats the best way to win but i want to choose my FAVOURITE role and stand a chance to win.

TL:DR im sick of going vs premades and having an autofilled support

I'd say look for enemy mistakes and take advantage of that, try to lead your support and tell them what to do, and try not to feed.

Fortunately for me, in low elo it really doesn't matter who the support is as long as they don't feed/stand idle. You can carry the game as an adc by out-farming and out-damaging the enemies and if you main a champion you can even outplay them with superior mechanics. Not sure if you can do that in higher elo though

Hope your support got auto filled enough to where they have too much games on support.

In my opinion, there are two types of autofilled support players:

Players who don't care about the lane and are permanently just pissed that they are autofilled
Players who feel uncomfortable being autofilled, but at least try

With Type 1, you are really screwed and can just hope that the enemy bot lane is utterly weak. But Type 2 often works out surprisingly well. Guide them and try to make them feel comfortable. It's rather easy to be a decent support, even if you have no experience. Kindly ask them to 1) buy a support item and not farm 2) ward occasionally 3) stay safe - and everything will be fine.
