ADCs (and Supports) that you HATE laning with.

I figured I would start this as a support main myself, I typically have very bad experiences of certain ADCs when I support them and lane with them, and I'm sure other supports have preferences as well. I suppose for ADC mains you can do it the other way around, who do you dislike to be supported as?

My personal list, the ones that I hate:

Ezreal : I cringe whenever this guy pops up in champ select on my team. Most of them I encounter are either godlike or absolutely terrible at landing anything, no inbetween. Especially painful are ezreals that start a mana crystal summoner 3

Kalista : I hate kalista so much. I don't really play tank supports so I don't like kalista. I hate that I can't choose to be her Oathsworn. Also she always pulls me at the WORST possible time. They take me away during some important moment, like when I need to heal someone, or ult, or need to use mikael's. I've had kalista bind with me (soraka) when we had a malphite jungle. Like, seriously?

Varus : I don't see this guy too often, but I feel like he is Ezreal in a way. They are either really good or really bad. Some Varus players love their Q to death to the point it is the only thing they will ever use, even at point blank. Also the ult....perhaps the most missed skill shot in my experience.

Vayne : Ehh, I feel like most peolpe don't like laning with vayne because she is kinda bad early, but laning with a good vanye is really fun and exciting if you can get ahead. However, a lot of vanye players I have played with are a bit snobby or just downright toxic, especially if the rest of the team is not doing well (not saying all vanye players are like this, just most of the ones at my ELO)

Now ADCs I love laning with:

Corki : I've laned with a lot of good corkis lately, many of them know how to weave skills and AAs together, unlike a lot of ez players at my ELO.

Draven : Basically, if we can get one kill, the lane practically plays itself out. Most Dravens know how to pick up their axes so that isn't a problem really. Most of them are fairly aggressive too, which makes a lane fun.

Graves : Like Draven, most of them are aggressive which is fun. Most of the time with graves I usually can get out of laning with at least 1 kill. However, sometimes Graves players go a bit too hard (or miss ult) but not very often.

Other ADCs I find are ok, and I don't particularly dislike or like: Ashe Caitlyn Lucian MissFortune Sivir Tristana Twitch Jinx Quinn KogMaw

I hate supporting Vayne players. Not Vayne, the Vayne players. Vayne seems to attract an unusually high number of arrogant and rage-prone players.

Ezreal players too, but at least they tend to just be arrogant in their playstyle, not raging at their team every game. (PSA: Having a blink does not mean you cannot be caught while overextending)

This is probably an unpopular opinion but I hate laning with Janna support, yes the AD steroid is awesome extra movement speed is nice but she doesn't really do much in lane compared to a leona or soraka.

Anyways I find her kit great in the mid/late game but laning with it is kinda lame.

To me it seems that ADC+Support duos are pretty weak currently. That said, any of them can beat your ass, but they live in shadow of certain overpowered mid-laners. It's sad that the only cooperative duo in the current meta has so poor results.

I hate supporting Ashe's cause they have no damage.

I hate supporting Ezreal's cause they go tear first and have no damage. Even when they're behind.

I hate supporting any ADCs that rush Statikk Shiv before any damage...

I hate laning with a Sona. Ever since the 4.13 nerfs, all the champ does is intentionally feed. No damage, no healing,, no CC, no mobility, I don't know how a champ could become any more useless than what Fearless did. Any team that has a Sona is fighting a 4v6. Any lane with a Sona is 3v1.

I hate laning with Blitzcrank Most of them just run in circles and never hook or initiate with e.

But when i play against one.. oh boy.

You don't actually have to play tanks with Kalista. Tanks only Synergize with her ult, and then they don't do much with the rest of her kit. Aside from Braum. I honestly feel like Nami and Janna are more Synergetic with Kalista: Making her even more mobile, even harder to reach, Hit harder, and they can still follow up on her ult with point blank ults of their own.
