the heal thing no longer costing her hp doesn't matter you gave her no buffs to compensate for removing her q sustain. and the health cost is not better early game. people take w second you just removed support soraka to stop a 52 percent win rate champ from being top. you did nothing now rework her to be fun to play like mage. Make q have real ratios and damage. Maybe you could remove autofill if it didnt suck so bad to play support for most people.
Something about an unforced meta that's why they nerfed
When a support healer champion has a 56% win rate in a solo lane without healing anyone else or interacting with their lane opponent the the champion needs to be changed. These changes were necessary
First answer: soraka was causing too many problems up top and she was a bit strong bot
Second answer: Whenever a support leaves botlane riot enforces the meta, that's why.
They gave her the triple D with the update.
I'm wondering if these nerfs are so bad that it's not worth leveling Q first anymore. There's a very real chance we end up with a W first skill order that is completely uninteractive in lane.

This is not literally the stupidest thing I've ever heard, but it tries to be. The W buff is the compensation for reduced healing on Q.
and the health cost is not better early game.
Yes it is.
people take w second
How long does it take to get to level 2? If you need to spam heals on your carry at level one something is wrong.
you just removed support soraka
Support Soraka is actually stronger after this change, because the health cost on W is significant, so mitigating that is a big help to her overall survivability.
to stop a 52 percent win rate champ from being top.
I thought it was closer to 56, and it was an awful experience for the enemy laner, especially melee.
you did nothing now rework her to be fun to play like mage.
If you don't think she's fun to play, why complain about the change?
Make q have real ratios and damage.
She's a healer. If you want RaTiOs AnD dAmAgE play Syndra or something.
Maybe you could remove autofill if it didnt suck so bad to play support for most people.
Jungle is worse these days.
