Helping the ADC has Support
It's become a common occurrence that my adc going Rambo after they have fed 2 - 3 kills. Is there anything I can do to help prevent this after telling them to stay way and farm under tower?
Thanks.

Abandon them and help someone who appreciates it. See how well they do then.
If its just a bad matchup and they are behind, i'll usually stick around and protect them and see if I can salvage anything from the AD carry.
But if they are intentionally being a moron and going 0-8 in 10 minutes. I tend to roam to other lanes, get deep ward coverage and help out anywhere else I can (Most supports are amazing roamers due to their CC)
Shrug off the report from your ADC and support the other 3 members of your team.
So this is going to sound rough but if your bot lane loses, you need to start roaming around the map and try making plays elsewhere (the earlier you do this, the better because you don't want to stay at bottom when you know you've lost lane). This means ditching your ADC to gank the other lanes and helping out your jungler. Bot lane can easily be a snowball-y lane because if your bot lane is losing and both the adc and support are dying over and over, the enemy bot lanes gets a humongous lead over you.
Should try playing mage supports or Sona. If you pick utility/tank based supports it means you can't really do anything on your own. Many mages offer different types of utility, just as much as some regular supports, while having the potential to deal high amounts of damage. Picking Janna/Thresh means you're entirely reliant on your team to be doing decent, since all you can do is set up plays or peel non-stop, which means nothing at all when your team is performing poorly anyways.
Thanks everyone. Recently I've been trying Blitz since he is free this week. I've been able to salvage poor bot lanes with him. I have tried Annie support, but I can't seem to do it well. I will pick up Sona in the future. So far the only supports I've been good with are Thresh, Janna, Blitz, and Sona. Any other supports I can pick up?
