Soraka is one of best supps, specially when 2 adcs are going one on one. She is just standing behind and spam W. I mostly play supports, I like playing with her, but she have only one good skin, "Reaper Soraka", which is available only during Halloween, and that sucks.. -_-
Soraka is rly good on ranked only because you cant know how good your ADC will be, so even if they are bad, u still cant hold the lane
yes it does, in first 9 levels, when her W is maxed to level 5 it's exactly same as it was before the nerf. She is weaker from level 1-8, she is equally strong from level 9-18 she is exactly the same
I think you are very wrong, if you want to be a good soraka it's really really hard, you have to manage your mana and health perfectly while still having perfect positioning since one cc spell on you and you are most likely dead, I'd recommend alistar if you got autofilled in support and can't play support, he is very simple, yet if you are good you can be very creative with him
To be complete honest with you, i have played soraka a few times and i don't usually play support but i played very well with her, my only job was to heal/silence but on the other hand there are blitz,thresh that are harder to play with because of grab
I play soraka for 6 years, and its not that easy as u think, especially on higher ello where ppl actually focus you 1st, then carries. You need to heal on perfect moment, one where your ADC wont die and you enemies think that they will able to kill him and bait them, i did this way to many times, and 1 small mistake can cost you lane, also silence is rly good tool vs blitz, just need to know his range and where to place it, as i said am playing soraka for 6 years and ive done almost every single match up
Yeah she is easy if you are bronze, when you get to silver 1+ you will probably feed like madman if you don't have perfect positioning, you are useless if you die before teamfight
