but she's weak as it is...

She currently has a 51.8% ranked win rate. She's not weak by any means ;)

Buy item 3123 on your first return it nerfs her Q and forces her to buy potions instead of gear. Soraka mid-late game she's usless and you win.

I know, item 3123 is not a part of your build or maybe you don't get why it works, but it works every time... [slayer-jinx-wink] Think strategy and counter building, not what you read on mobafire...

That.... sounds really ineffective. I mean, the Q is almost always used when she hasn't been hit in a while. It has a long range and is primarily a poke. I'll probably be reducing the heal on it less than 1/10 uses, and even if that caused a problem for her (which it wouldn't) then she could adjust with just one or two potions. Not much I'm going to be able to do about the gold I wasted into Executioner's Calling though. Even later in the game, it's not a big help because if I'm hitting Soraka as an ADC, I'll almost always kill her before any amount of self-healing she has can save her. The problem is safely getting in range of her in the first place, not killing her once I'm there.

If Grievous Wounds still reduced ally healing it would probably be decent. Without that, it's a pretty mediocre item against her. I'd rather take an item that doesn't impair my lane with gold inefficiency.

Like I said you won't get it, but it work. Just try it...

Never worked against me. Punished extremely hard both times. No desire to do it myself.

she's getting fukt and gutted in the next patch.

BergkDec 4, 20151 votes

Star Call (Q) range reduced to 800 from 950
Astral Infusion (W) Mana cost increased to 40/45/50/55/60 from 20/25/30/35/40
Wish (R) no longer removes Grievous Wounds

That's a decent nerf, but its not getting "fukt and gutted" lol

It's just Soraka, she doesn't need a nerf, people need to be better problem solvers...

Soraka had such a low mana cost for her heal.. i guess you can take out the gutted part but shes getting fukt at least

I never even noticed she had a mana cost on her heal.

Only if we get to disable Blitzcrank, Thresh, and not be put in higher mmr (with multiqueue team mates you aren't a part of) as well.

Because I don't have fun against any of those either (I enjoy facing Soraka more than those two mentioned.)

Play Draft pick. Ban Soraka. /Thread

#GetGud problem solved.

Nah but all joking aside, literally all you have to do is target her and you win. She has no CC other than a silence on a lonnnng CD and an unreliable slow. Pick Leona and you will win lane every time.
