Does anyone else find Senna's kit a little too...diverse

This is probably more of an issue in low elo's (I'm not a very good player) than anywhere else, but Senna was designed as an ADC, right? For some reason she has AoE root, peel/untargetability with her E, a pretty long range with her Q (which can also heal her or any ally), and a global presence with her ult that practically requires 0 aim. I can't name another ADC that has a kit with similar capabilities. It's simultaneously very aggressive and very defensive. When she's fed she becomes a nightmare, not only because of her 4 passives but also the AD she stacks from collecting Mist Wraiths. I'm not taking a hard stance on this either way, I'm genuinely interested to know what people think

She was created with the intent to be a support champion. She has to have CC and other utility to be effective in that role; however, her secondary role was to be an ADC.

her main design was around being a support because if she adc's she wouldnt scale as fast because the chances of minions dropping souls for her are exponentially lower if she last hits minions and her kit is based around healing, cc, camouflaging, an ult that shields allys, and poke that is relatively similar to that of a support mage like velkoz, xerath, or swain

I love playing Senna but to be honest.. I find her underwhelming as a Support. To me she's more of a champ I pick in solo queue when I can't rely on having a decent ADC. In Duo queue.... I'd rather just be Leona. Her actual ability to support is pretty crap compared to most of the enchanters, she's MUCH weaker in laning than any of the CC lockdown tank sups, or hook supports as well. Her W is pitibly easy to dodge unless your ADC is ASHE/Jhin/Xayah/Ect and has their own CC. Her healing is weak early and you shoot yourself in the foot lategame if you aren't using it to Auto/Q harass for stacks. E in lane is decent if you are ahead, but inadequate if you are behind/stuck at turret (which as senna happens more often than not due to roaming assassins mids.) Her Ulti sees more use as a tool to get some cheap kills or free assists than to ever actually save her ADC. Also her damage output vs tanks even late game is lacking as all hell. I'm pretty sure you could build even a mage an auto attack build and do more damage than Senna can before uber late game.

She's fun... but she's pretty "meh."

Her ult is as easy to dodge as Luxs. The only problem I see with her being a low elo player is that we have issues ending games pre 35 mins and then she scales and whoever has the Senna wins late game.

You don't need to aim with her ult? You do know that the damaging part is pretty small, right?
