She's out of place in these metas, she fit in the tank meta because people didnt get blown up in .25 seconds like now... i just played her and she sucks so bad.. it's a pain playing a champ that feels so out of place

Soraka was my main for three seasons but then riot gut her with nerfs and a rework which was one giant nerf in itself and on top of making burst/dps stupidly strong and everyone takes summoner 14 summoner 4 [sg-shisa] fucking so angry this season since i bought almost all of soraka skins but playing her ranked is asking to auto lose in the fucking champion select

Not soon, there are champs that need a more a VGU than Raka.

Well, ever since Riot really started going crazy into the VGU program with Sion and Poppy, Mordekaiser has needed it a bunch. I would argue that Sion, Poppy, and Mordekaiser were the greatest offenders in the game but Morde has been abandoned even by the team that's supposed to keep characters from being outdated trash in the gutter. It wouldn't surprise me at this point of Raka got one before champs that needed it more because they've been doing that since the beginning lol.

She looks fine and her kit is still decent. There are many others that are far higher priority than her.

D-Did you say Soraka....sucks?

She is among the only viable enchanters next to Nami and occasionally Sona. Heals and poke are apparently super valuable.

How would a VGU fix Soraka being out of place? It's a burst meta so any healer is going to be a lot weaker then if it was a tank meta or a poke one. Plus her E is still great when you want to stop someone getting blown up so it's not like she's worthless.

Soraka sucks? WHAT LMAO. She can be the true menace in teamfights. Whaaat??? You LITERALLY have to target her in laning phase otherwise she just heals the ADC. And this is coming from a support main, who's also playe alot of Soraka. Soraka is so damn strong when she's played right. Her Q heals, slows, and can be spammed non-stop. Her E is really strong, she can stop casting and root. Her R is AoE, and her W is a 0,2 sec (no joke) at lvl 5 before lvl 14. Soraka is a pain for people.

If her kit got reverted, she would be fine. I hate her rework. I played more Soraka Support than anything else until she got reworked.

Fite me gurl.

Truthfully she's really strong in our lower elos. People higher up know how to play against her and will play passive and shut us down (in which case if you prefer enchanters, Nami is a better choice). But people in Silver and even low gold don't seem to understand how equinox or starcall works. All they think we have is heal.

They lose hard and call our adc op. [slayer-jinx-wink]

I think the reason for that is because she sacrifices 10% of her max hp to heal someone, and if she get's low enough she's basically a free gold sack for any Assassin.
