I think soraka may need some buffs

Generally speaking, there's always a healing reduction item on the enemy team, whether its morello from their mid laner, exe from as early as first back or a thorn mail from their top laner. Nowadays playing as soraka feels so hopeless, because of almost every game theres a healing reduction item / ignite from the enemy team even if you're not playing as soraka. I think that these items are to mainly reduce healing for laning phase such as Vlad Mundo, but the thing is soraka actually needs health and mana to heal unlike those champions. So, for only 800g you can make soraka instantly 40% more useless therefore Soraka players are forced to max q instead of w. This makes her extremely fragile if she goes in for a q against someone like a nautilus not to mention her q cooldown got increased by 3 seconds at rank 1 meaning that if you're against another enchanter support such as sona you won't win trades early and by mid-game your healing does basically nothing as healing reduction lasts for 3 seconds making rejuvenation useless. From my experience during teamfights the frontline gets hit by exe or morello or actually both while your adc attacks thornmail so basically the only person you can heal is a mage from your team if theres one. What's special about soraka is not her heals anymore, but her silence that counters basically anyone that goes in on your adc and good for poking. But they took away soraka E max too so wtf can soraka do? Q max = too risky and bad**** early game W max = self destroying machine unless you build health regen and heal for 20 late game E=sad :(

I miss the extra damage in the center of Q. Brought a little skill expression to her kit.

Nobody wants healbot to be popular again, the games always a nightmare when she's good

before they gutted her dmg on q and e and gave her useless ms, she had 3-4 playstyles... now she has only one and its boring as fuck. thanks riot.

Ehh, thats just Power creeping stuff. Its not healthy, Like, buffs heals, Buffs Ignite, buffs to heal for ignire, add grevious wounds to more things, buffs heals?

I think heals need a way to make it less unhealthy.
