Soraka obnoxious toxic champ

Let me explain why:

Ever enjoyed playing a game vs Soraka?
In lane she heales back up in no time so you have to avoid every trade
Did you ever felt you were taking meaningfull choices vs a team with Soraka? Except the focus the support or we can't kill anyone anyway? And after using ults and other resources to kill the support you find yourself without the resources needed to kill the carries.
Soraka needs ZERO interaction with the enemy team so she hardly comes in a position you can engage on her. She can stand behind 4 teammates healling them whole game without ever coming in range. All she has to do is buy HP and regen.

Can Meddler come here and explain why his team thinks she is fun and balanced to play against and a healthy champ with a diverse and healthy kit full with meaningful choices and lots of trade offs.

Yes.

If you avoid her Q (at max range, it's easy), each of her heals costs 10% of her own health. Don't avoid trades with her, that's how she wins.

Because "focus the carry, ignore the support" isn't everyone's go-to strategy as is. Keep in mind that because you have another champ to focus, the enemy team has another champion to protect that can't peel as strongly as, say, Leona or Braum.

She needs interaction to hit that Q in the early game, because she needs at least two HP items in order to get Warmogs's passive to activate. And that's only considering her HP at level 18. So we're talking a six item support here... and did I mention that her W costs 10% of her own health, and scales with her own health? At rank one, to boot.

Support main here; Find a better support to go against her. Her strength comes from out sustaining your duo in lane, how do you beat this? You poke the shit out of her so she can't. You keep her around 50% in lane and you'll be fine. She's squishy as hell so just have your support pick someone with good engage and you'll scare a flash out of her sooooo fast. Then second engage is a kill. Sorry that you can't play anything other than "focus the adc".
