I am pretty certain its playable because if the game go past 40 min, i have a chance of winning with gathering storm and transcendence. So does anyone know like a certain build or something to survive the laning phase. My parry and my ultamate is not guarnteed so laning phase is tough!

You would be handicapping your team too hard for it to ever get to that point, even if it did work.

Youre basically guaranteeing a lost lane. I could maybe possibly somehow see it not being complete garbage if you pick it into something really passive like an enemy ezreal/tahm kench lane, but if the enemy lane is any kind of kill lane you will probably lose lane into lose game.
Outside of relic shield procs and MAYBE an atk speed slow from your W (b/c youre never gonna land the stun part of it most likely) you provide no utility for your lane, and because fiora wants gold, unless you steal farm you will never scale up to relevance.
Rajinikanth Fan1 votesI split push, after 20. That one of my champion winning condition. So i think im allowed to do it. Usually my adc dies a lot in laning phase so i have good amount of farm!

So, your support plan is to starve your ADC of CS while feeding the enemy botlane a bunch of kills, somehow grab that CS yourself as a squishy melee while it's 1v2 due to your ADC being dead, extend what's basically a 3v7 to 40 minutes, and then win.
Good plan!
Tr4shB4NSYST3M2 votesRight? that is some hard griefing... And this is coming from a guy who in ranked when autofilled support has played 
and . Pantheon support works better b/c of W stun, Q poke and the passive blocking turret shots enabling dives. Talon as a support is a lot more risky, but IMO is still way less of a griefing pick than "fiora support" b/c talon can zone the enemy botlane (especially if they're both squishy champs) and can hard punish if they over extend with just a W>Q>auto trade so the enemy botlane has to respect your kill lane potential (actually works incredibly well with an 
adc b/c her slow enables you to hit both parts of W guaranteeing your passive). Plus E enables him to dip out of lane, ward and come right back, potentially from a flank.
Lol I got a little off topic, but I felt like this was an appropriate thread to discuss 2 of my pretty off meta support picks when i get autofilled :).

Rajinikanth Fan2 votes14 day suspension..., if teemo can be picked in support why cant fiora be support. I think with good practice with fiora support, fiora can be tied with teemo support!
heroikc4 votesEasy, get a real support and forget fiora.
Jimmy Rustles3 votesFiora support will be basically irrelevant the entire game
She has no real engage or tankiness and the best you could do is Q into CC and parry it
So if anything I'd max parry first for shorter CD and try to get a tankier item first instead of tri/BC
Relic shield obviously
Rajinikanth Fan2 votesI see, but fiora q does no damage and e does no damage. And my ult is based on bonus ad. I don't think tank fiora will work because riot gutted that option!

Bruh it's about surviving lane, if you go full damage like normal fiora you'll just be poked to death and have even less use, and I don't mean build full tank, just get a tankier item for your first pick
Ahri Baka3 votesThat's why I hate boards
Playing off meta support is allowed
The player is free to play what they want in support
Ezreal support is surely allowed
But Fiora support isn't allowed ? It doesn't matter if this thread is a bait or not At least Fiora has slows and an ability that blocks everything and turn cc into a stun And has an Aoe Heal on her Ult While Ezreal literally gives nothing lol

There's nothing wrong with going off-meta & I personally don't have a problem with people playing what ever they want. I play off-meta once in a blue moon & I even know a guy that's stomped people with Brand Jungle.
If the OP wants to play Fiora Support, they're more than welcome to do so. However he/she needs to ask their team if they're ok with it or queue up with a partner. Otherwise, everyone on the OP's team is going to assume they're trolling & will report him/her if they lose. This happened with the Smite Support Singed & Smite Support Nunu.

the same should go for Ezreal support then

yeah... except it's a little different because that guy consistently played those things at a higher level in ranked (pretty sure it was plat-diamond) consistently getting reported even after winning, just a bit different. :P

Good luck getting in adcs face to proc slow before she dies.
And has an Aoe Heal on her Ult
Assuming she actually manages to proc vitals before she dies
While Ezreal literally gives nothing lol
Ezreal can poke, unlike fiora.
Kai Guy3 votesPlay with friends. The required adjustment in playstyle for random teammates may be to high to expect reasonably. If your unable to provide individual impact consistently (implied heavily by the fact your requesting assistance in doing it better)
With just a duo, you will find Having an "ADC" Run would provide sustain and lower your Time to significant item power spikes inherent with 
.
Further you can try swapping out your Bot with a Champion that has a stronger early game impact then traditional ADC classes. There are options for ranged DPS viable in top lane matchups. So with 2 friends you could run ADC top and a Cheese off meta kill lane bot. I think some reliable DPS with CC would be ideal. for example, Plus he could roam using his R at which point Fiora support should snag some CC and scale quicker.
As there are lower options in your usefulness early compaired to a massive # of available options when running this as a support it should be treated as a cheesing strat. You want to abuse a powerspike on your kill potential with Fioras kit + a consistant factor to enable that kill pressure. Duoings the best way to achieve this. 3 players would be better as you can create a comp that accounts for this strategy with a majority of your team and also not create negative impacts by demanding excessively dramatic adjustments to standard player play patterns.
Far as In lane. Learn how to drop Aggro for passive on bad spawns. Walking away to reapply passive in directions you can realistically target will give you a bit more damage and a bit more sustain from using your Q casts to harass.
Your income item should be related to how your planning to lane. DO NOT UPGRADE TO T3 ITEMS AS THE STATS ARE SUBPAR FOR THE GOLD. What you want on fiora is going to be better gained from investing that gold elsewhere. T2 is fine, more income, free vision. T3 is a trap, avoid it. Engage off CC for your R and focus on hitting the farthest possible marks, as a champion in bot trys to kite you they will position away. if they cant take your lane in a 100 to 0 attempt they are forced to try and flee towards their tower. if you can trigger R then you have a very strong zone heal you can fight in and the opponent will need to maneuver away from it.
Body block dramatic CC ability's, strive to parry them, especially if they have long CD R for example.
Arcade Lulu2 votesJust don't
usul12021 votesWhy do you think it would ever be worth picking over something even reasonably off meta?
Agent Corgi1 votesOk, I'll admit I've played some interesting picks in the support role in the past.
While I'm all for experimentation (so long as it's Normals), there are things out there even I wouldn't play. Fiora is just one of those champions that wasn't designed to be in the Botlane as she's more balanced around being a Solo Laner.
Not saying you're not allowed to play it or that you shouldn't be playing it, but you'd most likely have fun trying something else.
ModWulf Helhammer2 votesMost of those work simply because they are either tanky and/or have enough CC that even with a limited gold budget they still can perform their jobs. Fiora doesn't have either of those options.
Shaco and Teemo and maybe Heimerdinger are the edge cases, that don't have as clear a path as the rest of your list, but even they still do better than Fiora.
Néékö1 votesI e supported and won with every champion... Fiora is far from the worst. That being said she is a hard pick to do, you need a decent duo laner that understands the lane will be different from normal meta. The main idea early is to block cc and One the enemy, when I did it I rushed PD. Lategame you have to counter key abilities and protect the dmg dealers even if you die, if you live go for objectives.
