Terrible, Terrible, Terrible. Give us back Soraka!

Soraka has for a long time been one of my favorite supports for many reasons. Riot has seen fit to make her into a completely new and almost completely unrelated champion. Many things that i loved about her are gone. The armor bonuses, the mana infusion, the quick targeted silences to stop those quick mobile assasins, and the resist reductions to let your apc's get that little extra edge are all gone. I for one would like to see the Starchild rise back to her original self and give our bot lanes back the one of the best supports in the game. I personally am boycotting rp until this is fixed. If anyone wishes to join me please let yourself be heard, and we'll see if Riot cares about the opinions of its players.

soraka was a toxic case thats the only reason for her rework

soraka building tanky was an unkillable medic meaning thatthe only thing you could to vs her was to kill 4k hp adc

It seems so unimaginative to me. Soraka has lost her entire feel. Most of the reworks are very nice and just modifications of the original while She just got torn apart and made into an entirely new champion.

This is almost as bad as the remake of the lore system, with its two lines of strewn together story they give to go ahead and shred the continuity of the world. Can't wait til 'raka is a half-unicorn or some such nonsense.

I've been a long time supporter of your nonsense but lately I must say it seems that Riot is going to Star Wars Galaxies this game.

No. Just no. Riot hated the old Soraka and if she should be reworked to be playable then I'm ok with that. She is my favourite since I started playing and I was really worried with her being reworked, but I was satisfied with her being a strong healer with some soft CC. Only thing that bugs me is that she can't solo anymore. If her Q and E ratios are buffed a little bit I will be totally satisfied.

I don't feel she is encouraged to build AP which is very fun to play. Full CDR, health regen and utility seems more efficient. Her Q and E scalings are 35% and especially Starcall could use a scaling buff. Equinox could also be buffed to 40-43% or deal an additional small %HP damage since you don't usually get to hit both ticks often. It would feel more rewarding to do so ,as well.

I know what you're dealing with...I've been trying to get them to talk about Karma ever since her "relaunch". It just seems that Riot doesn't care enough about old players. They only want to "keep advancing" no matter who's feelings they crush.

Just like with Karma there are new things with Soraka that are good, and some that are horrible (i.e. new silence is an aoe...but enemies can easily walk out of it before they're rooted) The new starcall isn't horrible, but because it's so slow moving, enemies can easily get out of the way especially if they see the huge circle on the ground! I do enjoy being able to poke with her and not having to be right next to the enemies now though. Her W's passive is pretty cool...but if you're in the middle of a teamfight and need a heal you have to wait for the heal to travel to you. Most of the time I'm dead and then get healed...
