Dear ADC,

When youre facing Soraka in lane, buy this item: . Let me try to explain with a little bit of math. Lets say everyone down in bot lane is lvl 6 and Soraka has 3 points in her Astral Infusion. applying the grievous wound onto the enemy ADC would cause Soraka to give only a little bit more health than if she had 1 point in her q (60% of 140 [rank 3 w] is 84 [rank 1 w has 80 health base]).

Same with Wish, If she got the bonus from her ADC being below a health threshhold, she would actually heal for less than the base 150 at rank 1. (60% of 225 is 135)

Soraka without her obnoxious healing doesnt have much else to offer her team compared to other enchanters. As the game carries on people start to get blown up instantly and most mages build which is why you start to see her winrate go down in a literal diagonal line come late game.
