Seriously now, how? if I get to the late game with JannaI usually win even if we lost lane because of how her shield's ad and ardent censer synergize with the adc at that point. but in lane - ffs I just feel useless. I usually just shield the damage thrown at my adc, her only poke is her autos which I can shield myself from them but it's just a waste if the adc needs it.. let's face it, Janna's poke is a joke, so it's either I win the lane because my adc is draven or cait and trades with the shield, or it's just becomes a lane were both of us just afk farm till they take our tower..

Janna mains, how to not lose lane?

janna is designed as a peel support. you don't play her to win lane, you play her to not die in lane.

now you're asking how to not lose lane? use your champion tools right, get vision and make sure your adc knows how to farm passively. since janna is such a passive, reactive support as opposed to proactive supports such as leona, winning or not winning lane depends way more on your adc than you.

if you want to be the decisive factor in lane yourself, play supps who can make picks, burst or poke.
