Why can soraka heal minions with W?

Never wanted to do that, especially since W costs health now. There has been several occasions where i accidentaly heal a minion instead of teammate.

If you can heal your glorified cannon minion, you should be able to heal your regular cannon minion too. It'll probably rage at you less in caht, too.

They were supposed to put in some mechanic that heals allies instead of minions if you click on when an ally is low hp or something like that

Well, that didn't make it in.

There is an option like that "Target only champions" or something.

Why can Karma E minions? Fuck if I know.

Because clicking on the right target is skill. Stop complaining because YOU clicked on a minion.

They should make it so she can heal minions for free. That way there might be some scenario she would want to heal one.

Well... While I totally empathize, as minions do get in the way (the below "learn to play" comment is missing the point and should be ignored), in theory, this could be useful for siege or super minions if attacking a tower. Banner of Command with a late game push isn't inconceivable as a use. Maybe item 3504 if that was possible?

I'm on Mobile, so I can't quickly check if that works on units or just champions.

It's units.

I kinda like using her heal on minions when we're pushing and have a siege minion or low minions.

Honestly it might end up making her OP with the next season changes.

I'm seeing a developing "pusher" niche next season with all the new minion/item/tower/buff monster changes.

From my understanding, it's so you can heal super minions, cannon minions, and Tibbers. Although, I do wish I could heal my allies instead of misclicking.

Ya, you could heal minions with old heal, so its still the same. People would probably rage more if they removed it as a reason why her change was "bad". Besides the cannon minion rages at you less, so you should heal him more.
