Executioner's Calling is made to counter?

I am sure it is specifically made to counter the healer of LOL (Soraka)

I mean i hardly ever see a Soraka main out there and with the recent buffs to support items, soraka is doing well just like sona, janna, nami and other mage supports especially.

However Executioner's Calling (800g) should basically be renamed to "Soraka's Counter". It's not funny that you lose 10% max health per W (heal) and on top the constant stack of grievous wounds from Executioner's make you heal 40% less. It costs way too less and it can be abused early on in lane.

Morellonomicon also applies grievous wounds but only below 35% health which is acceptable.

Personally i think it should not stack after it applies Grevious wounds and the passive should go on CD of atleast 5-10sec or so, after it first applies grevious wounds. Imagine an adc having hurricane and mortal reminder and applying grievous wounds to 3 targets per hit (not sure if this works ) but i assume it does. Self health sacrifice and no mobility/utility to a risky Q (self health regen) makes soraka hard enough to play effectively and not just a heal bot. I am sure no one cares about Soraka. lel

I stopped playing soraka after her 20 nerfs last year

Healing and Shielding are the 2 most broken mechanics in the game anyway.

Nerfing the only counter to one of them? no ty.

Don't forget there are fewer supp mains hence "autofill " exists. They don't farm nor do they get kills. Unless you want to kick supp fully out of the game, stop being an hypocrite by neglecting how overpowered the assasin/tank meta is and how much more fun it is compared to being a supp currently. Healing is soraka's core job because at the end of the match you'll see soraka had done 2-4k damage which is stupid and might not even exist thus why she needs atleast to excel in heal. Also she has no escapes so yh you have to position well throughout the game and you can easily kill her. Why do you need to counter a heal when you can burst the enemy and nearly every fkr has that? She loses self health per heal so that's one automatic counter to begin with.

to be fair, they said "counter to ONE of them"

but Rioter Fearless said he's not happy with GW. It's entirely possible it'll see another iteration eventually

Assassins and Tanks are shit atm.

Nor is it support meta. Most junglers are tanky af and the tanks deal insane damage. Assasins have tons of outplay potential added into their kit. Supports have cost effective items. This item specifically counters the existence of Soraka. If it wasn't so cheap (800g) it would have been fine.

It's not made to just counter soraka, it counters anyone who builds lifesteal, vladimir, and mundo just to name a few.

I take it to counter people who rely on lifesteal, yet, i feel no difference

But 40% reduction to lifesteal is nothing compared to 40% reduction to soraka's heal when she sacrifices 10% health. It's a very bad counter to her just like oracles is to my baby teemo :D
