Tips Against Bard as a Support Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

Bound04 says “Don't let him poke you out in lane, and be careful trading even health as he has more sustain. Your W blocks anyone going through his portals, AND if you E anyone in a portal it'll stun. HoB and lethality/tank recommended.”

Minima141 says “Bard is a disruptive matchup that can make it difficult for Rakan to find clean engage opportunities. His Cosmic Binding (Q) can stun you if it connects with terrain or another target, and his Magical Journey (E) allows him and his teammates to escape or reposition quickly. Many Rakan players lose this lane by forcing engages while Bard still has tools available to disengage or stall fights. The lane becomes easier when Cosmic Binding (Q) is unavailable or when Bard roams away from lane. Bard often leaves to collect chimes or pressure other parts of the map, which creates opportunities to gain lane priority or punish the enemy ADC while Bard is absent. Because Bard excels at disrupting fights and escaping bad situations, patience and wave control are very important in this lane. Focus on punishing Bard’s roams and creating pressure rather than trying to force risky engages. • Punish Bard’s roams instead of forcing engages in lane.”
Gaylaxy says “Skill matchup. Can be rough early, you need to match roams and watch for portal ganks.”

Joxuu says “It'll be harder to punish Bard roaming the map as Lulu compared to some tankier engage supports and Bard trades well in short bursts with his chimes and Electrocute. Go for trades when he doesn't have chimes but otherwise you can be pretty happy going even in lane but you want good awareness of his side of map for tunnel + jungler ganks”

Revil0 says “Ult is not as much as a threat since most of the since most of the time you can immediately shield adc. Q stuns can be annoying however.”

neekogf says “› he'll be roaming a lot, so buy [[boots]] first back to match him (most likely will be ganking enemy mid) › don't be directly behind your clone [[shapesplitter]] nor put your clone directly behind you or else bard Q [[Cosmic Binding]] will stun you easily. ”
Nobreav says “ Disrupt Bard's Q Skill Usage Bard needs to hit his Q skill against a wall or minion to stun. When Bard tries to use Q, knock him back with your W skill or knock him up with your Q skill to disrupt his skill combo. Prepare for Bard's Ultimate Bard's ultimate stasis both allies and enemies. When Bard uses his ultimate, immediately use your R skill to break free from stasis and continue your engage or protect your allies.”

saucyyyy says “I f*cking hate this POS champ but he doesn't really do much against urgot. HIs damage is relatively low and you can buffer his Q cc. His ult isn't particularly scary for you and if he roams you can just bring your JG and get an easy dive on the ADC. Champion is really strong right now though. (also you can R2 in bard ult for Golden urgot) ”

Alchemyr says “He has strong pick potential but is squishy and largely magic damage. You can contest him in river/skirmishes with tank runes and Celestial Opposition. If he portals aggressively, E to where he'll emerge and pre-charge W to catch him and whoever follows.”
TIJUA says “Never stand near walls. Ping if he roams — push wave and plates. Save Q for his portal engage.”
