just wondering, assuming you aren't facing hard engage enemy bot lane (like naut, thresh, leona). if you support some late game hypercarry like kog, you can't be pushed out of lane and can just tp back when youre low to heal again
Deep Terror Nami1 votesIt's not a bad idea. I prefer to have my ADC take Barrier while I use Heal, because I don't want to get close enough to use Exhaust or Ignite (the standard supp spells). If you don't want to do that, TP would make sense, though you'd want to use it to help someone on the other side of the map (like to foil a top gank) more than just getting back to lane.
LVL 5 PORO1 votesI experimented with this for a while and its not bad but its not good either. The reason I say this is because theoretically it makes sense but it has drawbacks. TPing top and saving the day is good but that doesn't work with more experienced players. Leaving your ADC alone for that long can only spell disaster. Once you leave, your ADC is going to get zoned from the wave, or worse, ganked 1v3. Either way, you are making him or her a sacrificial lamb.
But is it worth? Is saving your top and mid worth sacrificing your ADC? I'd say it depends. If you have a Fiora top vs Renekton snowballing her MIGHT be worth it because her ult gives a lot more utility to team fights and she alone can solo carry's and rip apart tanks. If it was anyone else ... maybe not. ADCs typically do the most damage. So if you do decide to neglect your ADC you have to be 100% sure your other team mates can crank out as much damage as them. Or you just significantly lowered the relevance of your teams primary damage dealer for a mid or top laner who isnt worth it.
Krinu1 votesIt's... okay. Being able to TP to another lane that needs some patching up before backing is handy, being able to TP back to lane after backing for HP/items is also good.
I don't actually like taking Exhaust on Soraka because it requires her to be WAY closer to the fights than she ever should be, and even exhaust won't save her if she gets caught out of position.
She actually does pretty well with Clarity - her mana consumption is just far enough above her regen to make it so Clarity replaces a regen item, and since Soraka REALLY hurts for item slots with her hunger for AP, it's good to be able to free up a slot that would go to regen in favor of more utility or AP.
Of course, if you can persuade your ADC to not take heal, she does really well with that.
