This is not to be considered a finalized guide just yet. It's quite obviously not done.

This is simply a guide to show others how I play Soraka. Most people tell me that I'm doing it wrong, or that my build is stupid. That's fine, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. The time and energy spent on this build are the summation of my play-style. This may not work for everyone, but it works for me, and I figured I should share it with the community to see just how viable it is.

All champions have their strengths and weaknesses, Soraka is no different:

• Strengths
  • High AP Ratios on both offensive abilities
  • Decent AP Ratios on both heals
  • Silence/Nuke
  • Heals from across the map when your teammates are in trouble
  • Unexpected AP carry
• Weaknesses
  • Low base movement speed
  • Squishy
  • Low base mana pool
  • With this build, and all the new items, you're a glass cannon who can only run away using flash
  • High CD on both heals until you max Stacks on Mejai's
