Excuse me Riot, but how exactly am I supposed to do my ONE & ONLY job with this absurd damage creep?

As my name suggests, I am a Soraka main - probably part of that segment of the playerbase that keeps a VERY close eye on all healthbars in the game, especially allied ones. We are kinda smiliar to Karthus mains in that regard (even though that group doesn't seem to like use for SOME REASON...)

So I had a little break from League over a few months, and now came back because friends wanted to play a normal. Well no big deal, I've played so many Soraka games by now that it is now like riding a bicycle. Sure you get a little bit out of practice, but if your skills were good enough to play Goat-Toplane only and reach Diamond with it, that barely matters for a normal game. Except, here is where stuff gets REALLY bizzare: the sheer amount of DAMAGE going around even in a gamemode where everyone is just "playing for fun" - you know, practicing stuff, trying around with builds, and so on.

I expect such absurd damage numbers from the ABSOLUTE PERFECT execution of a whole kit-combo with basic attacks and an active item woven in, like when you go into ranked at a high level - but not when the enemy assassin has missed half their shots bit still managed to send a "warm wind" into the direction of our squishies.

So when it is absolutely common that people get 100-0ed in less than a second - where the HELL can I put half my abilities as Soraka? it's like with every passing patch that Riot tells me to take my healing spells and shove them up my arse, because they want the game to be even MORE of a killfest-clusterfuck.

I already adapted to that development, tried to find new methods to utilize my kit - mostly by using the E on full AP with a Ludens as an instant execution for low hp enemies. But that all doesn't do much when I can throw my entire main mechanical identity out into the garbage. I am a healer - who can't heal because damage kills people faster than I can even cast my heal. Or they just overkill them so hard it goes through my ult AND a W. It's just disgusting.

So Riot either you find a way that I can do my job again, or you just rework my main into a Veigar-level burstmage, as this is all that gets you hard these days anymore. At this point I don't really care anymore, just let me do something useful in my games again for fucking sake!
