After Riot gutted her support capabilities, it turns out her kit is well better suited on toplane as a variant of Teemo, except the spammable slow, the sustain, and the self-peel from E makes it even harder for melees to deal with her.

And what have we leared from that? Meta ain't worth shit if you can play your champ.

On-hit offtank Soraka is actually really strong. Sound trollish, but you can kite easier than with Teemo, her silence is extremely annoying against melees, and her ult has nice base ratios to not require AP

Yeah but her attack animation is not really suited for it, and the AP ratio on the ult is worth it when you got all them mods for +% healing in. That really stcks up at some point...

You'd be amazed how many people flame when seeing my pick alone. It got better as I climbed but well, it's kinda weird. And I got the policy that at some point, either I talk back or I just afk, because after being told to kill myself 15 times I have kinda stopped caring about the game and see more fulfilment in seeing that flamer lose.

Sadly, that combined gives you a shitton of reports. Gotta thank Riot's automated systems for that.

Gotta love this sh#tty game community am I right? Telling each other to kill ourselves, that's just pathetic.

Tbh I do not mind them saying it, but their lack of creativity and style is downright tormenting to read.

If you want to insult someone, always do it as if there's a crowd watching that is waiting to go like "WOOOOOOOOOOOAH!" - simply spamming "kill yourself" in tha chat ain't exactly the way to achieve that. Or at least try to do something with the language. Pretend you are Aurelion Sol. Call other players a "pathetic incarnation of mediocrity". I don't know, just give me something to read I have not seen a million times in the last six years (which is mostly just chains of ********* because the chat filter is on).

What do you do against someone that is anti-range like Irelia or Camille?

Never get into their zone when your E is on cooldown. NEVER. However, they are rleatively squishy with minimal sustain, so once yo hit some Qs its fine.

Also when you manage to peel them off with E, end the disengage by throwing some basics at them when they back out.

will this work in silver lol I'm pretty good at soraka imo

Sadly, no.

In the lategame you are still the supportiest support. You are not full AP Sona who can delete a squishy with a simple Ping-Pling-TSCHONK!

So you need a team that actually knows what it is doing - and not a bunch of failures that croak despite having their HP effectively quadrupled. Sadly, that is often hard to find in Silver.

aww that sucks then. Did you climb from Gold elo to Plat?

I mean meta doesn't mean anything at lower elos, just play whatever you want and play it well and you will eventually climb
