Im main soraka at at OCE server. I give heal to team a lot and sacrifice a lot for team victory. This guide may tilted the enemy so you and team can secure victory.

The runes for soraka is simple, sustain longer until first blood tower or reach lvl 6. The runes is to help soraka sustain longer in lane. If gets gangked, you are barely alive. The reason to take scaling MR is AP is develop after enemy at lvl 6, so scaling MR is useful at late game. For ealiy game Armour can only protect you from AD damage. For regen is simple, no need to go back to base for regen. the enemy wont gangked under tower unless you are too low or they are high level.

Heal power is soraka key to success in team. If you can convince the team to take windspeaker and runic armour, the enemy will cringe to death. For example, Darius, Nasus, Yoric or Garen they can regenerate heal really well using combine masteries and spirit visage item.

Health item is a taboo. But for Redemption and sightstone is exceptional. The more item that contain health, the more likely you can are closer to death since soraka always spam W and it consume 10% of soraka health. If you can, you can convince team to take spirit visage to utilize 25% healing power on them.

In conclusion, this season soraka does not need the AP as the healing power can outplay gravious wound in the late game. In the late game GW is not exist anymore, soraka heal is OP af. To combine the healing power for single one shot heal to FULL HEALTH, the team can do take (Mastery windspeaker {10% heal power} and runic armour{8% heal power}, spirit visage{25% heal power} and their health is below 40%), for soraka use the recommendation in this guide and press R (WAAAAAAAAAAAA). Imaqtpie may say "WTF this healing power LOL!".
