Some QoL changes Soraka could use

  1. Remove her ability to heal non-champion units, it's just cause for game ruining missclicks where you were slightly hovering above that ranged caster minion instead of your ADC who's about to die.

  2. When a low health ally is outside the range of your passive it should be apparent, some kind of icon with the healing icon or a change to the healing icon itself (for when they're too far). Also when they're outside the range the max range circle should be visible.

  3. Let's say your heal is worth 400hp and you try to heal someone who's missing 300, it will currently take 10% of your max hp, instead it should only take the % of health required to do the heal so in this case you'd only need 1/4 of the given health and so the cost should also only be 3/4 so 7.5% of her max hp in this case.

I agree on the first one. You don't even want to know how many times that's happened to me. Then there's that Q that misses by about a single character's foot.

I 100% agree that 1 and 2 would be nice, but I'm not so much in agreement for number 3. Basically the point of the new Soraka is that she's not trying to top off her allies anymore. That's why it costs her own health, because Riot doesn't want Soraka to be the champ that keeps her botlane both at 100% health all lane. Soraka does better when you're using the heals because your ally needs them. If your heal is only going to take 1/4th of its stats to fully heal your ally then you don't need to be healing them at all.

As a prior Soraka main who is relearning the new Soraka, I completely agree with the first idea you have for this, for the second idea I really don't have much to say except maybe that you should know how long your heal range is if you play Soraka after a few games so that I don't believe is a huge QoL change. As for the third item I believe that isn't really a QoL issue, but a balance issue, and will imbalance Soraka, although not OP, Soraka's heals are difficult to deal with and with such a low CD and spammable ability in team fight I think a Soraka player should know when to use their heal instead of constantly topping off after trades making a further imbalance in the botlane for the enemy team.

#1 most definitely. Don't know why Riot gave us the ability to troll like that. o.0
