Tips for countering Senna

So with the intro of Senna , I’ve been struggling to want to play bot lane because, being a noob at bronze, I have no clue how to play against her. I typically play Ashe , Jhin and Jinx . On occasion I play Vayne , Ezreal , MissFortune , Lucian and rarely Twitch (I feel like he doesn’t fit my play style). If anyone has some tips and tricks, or could point a video my way, I’d appreciate it. Getting better at bot lane is something I’ve been striving to do, and getting over this hurdle, is one more step up.

Thanks peeps! [katarina-love]

P.s. for those that might say, “just ban her,” I’ve been doing that, but there are other adcs I’d like to ban, so using my ban to ban a nuisance support, when I could ban an adc that counters my pick, has rekt some games even harder for me. (Draven I’m looking at you).

P.p.s. For the love of god, I will not be one of those people that beg others to ban that champ for me.

Do you have a duo you can support with?

Reason I ask is Zilean make's Draven life a living hell. Even a half-decent Zilean will stop Draven from catching a single axe. It is very funny watching my duo chase Draven around the lane with Zilean.

Then you'd be free to ban Senna. She's OP, needs nerfs, nerfs are supposedly on the way, but in the interim the appropriate thing to do is ban her. Banning her is also banning an ADC especially if she gets paired up with Nautilus or Leona. With either one of those as her support she has 58% win rate.

Senna is generally crap tier in low elo solo/duo.

Just get a Blitz/Leona/Naut support and all in her when her adc can't compensate. The worst thing you can do vs Senna is play passively. She literally has 15 second+ cooldowns on her main abilities. If she misses a W, take that as a signal to all In. Communicate with your support.

Caitlyn, Jinx, Vayne all actually destroy Senna. Even Lucian destroys Senna. and MF is a toss up (once fed she near 1 shots Senna, and Senna literally cannot run from her ult if it's used right)

Play vs her like you'd play vs a Miss Fortune: Do NOT stand behind a minion line in a direct angle where she is in a position to Q you. Realize her W is basically Morgana's Q, and try to dodge it the same.

If you play this way, and have a good engage support, Senna is a fish in a barrel, and literally CANNOT trade you/kill you if part of her kit is down. It literally takes her entire kit + a major item lead to kill people in a Auto> Q > Auto > W > R Auto combo. If she's missing anything, she will lose.
