Senna vs Bard

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Use (Q) poke and (W) root to control brush and deny Bard's wall stun angles.
Protect your ADC by maintaining safe spacing near brush to avoid (Q) engage.
Control wave state to limit Bard's roam windows and keep your ADC safe from isolation.

Trading pattern

Trade with autos and (Q) from max range, holding (W) to root Bard when he oversteps.
Avoid stepping up for souls when Bard's engage or (Q) is available to prevent picks.
Use (W) root to enable ADC follow-up and punish Bard's missed engage cooldowns.

Danger windows

(Q) wall stun angles from brush or walls can isolate your ADC; maintain vision and spacing.
(R) can stall fights or isolate your ADC; track cooldown and avoid grouped positioning.
Bard's roam after wave crash risks ADC isolation; crash wave and ward river to punish.

Early game

Win level 2 by landing (Q)+(W) combo with ADC follow-up to pressure Bard and his ADC.
Deny Bard brush control to reduce his (Q) stun angles and roaming potential.
Crash wave after level 3 to force Bard to stay or lose turret plates, minimizing his roam impact.

Power spikes

Level 2: Use (Q)+(W) combo to pressure Bard before he unlocks (E) roam paths.
Level 3: Full kit allows better brush control and root follow-up to punish Bard's cooldowns.
Level 6: Use (R) global shield to counter (R) pick or disengage and enable ADC all-ins.

Win conditions

Convert poke and root control into denied Bard ADC positioning and safer ADC access.
Set river vision to track Bard's roam timer and protect mid or dragon setups.
Use (R) shield during skirmishes to enable ADC follow-up and secure favorable 2v2 fights.

Tip: For Senna vs Bard, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Support lane check.
