so soraka sucks really bad now.

The nerf that riot gave soraka gave her absolutly no presence at all in lane, initially they were supposed to give her a balance of the champion that she used to be and initially they failed, then they buffed her, then they nerfed her again but with some good equivilency. now she does NO damage at all so she literally just loses every lane against any other support. what the hell riot. why did you gut my most played champion? you could have easily nerfed just her top lane, by making it so damage to minions was lowered or something, but this? you literally made her a tank again, and she is not supposed to be played as a tank, considering all the adcs on normals need to be hard supported now, and if you lose one baron you lose the game, it's like... what the hell. please rethink killing off soraka. Not only that she is so easy to pick now because you literally have no presence so the enemy team just goes through all your allies and kills you, regardless of your qs or es. I hate tank raka. thanks riot.

it wasn't just damage to minions, just it being low CD Big AOE that also healed her and gave movement speed which would make trading with her toplane annoying since you would constantly have to dodge, even worse if your meele

So basically, Riot did exactly what they set out to do

Wait til the new proposed spellthief/sickle nerfs. It's going to suck even more playing as support (let alone playing our dear Soraka on botlane).

I mean I liked to go ap support before... now it's nearly impossible because I can't move in and out of combat as easily or do any damage, believe it or not she chunked before with ap and healed more then the redemption build. I refuse to play her that way it's not even fun. I've been playing her since 3.5 though...I mean.. I honestly think the redemption item is trash. it makes you take a back seat to gaming as a whole, while the rest of your team can do things.

at least before I could get off a triple kill when enemies were chasing me late game, now she is always dead. and sett is like two champs so he double kills her.. then I have people complaining about her ult, the one thing that didn't get nerfed, saying it is too powerful, first off I build ap so it heals more, and second... it's one of the few things that didn't get destroyed in her kit... I almost want them to return old soraka because they are fucking up on the promises of new soraka. she's becoming really difficult and not viable to play anymore, and for a beginner champ that's really bad.

i always play her with item 3504 item 3107 item 3222 item 2065 item 3114 item 3083 anyway, so whatever (tho with supp salary u never get full build or remotely close to it anyway)

i'd rather have them revert her to pre-rework, old soraka was so much more fun and engaging to play...

Incredible, they failed again? Noooo, it's impossible!

{quoted}

But how, they did such an amzaing job with "fixing" Soraka:

Soraka, Support

  • 47.48% WR

  • 45.65% in DIa+ [ u-gg ]

So competent :o)
