First couple of games trying your first build went horrible, but since then almost every game has been one of my best raka games.

i did calculations for u

if you continue getting tickets at the rate ur doing, u will end up with 1070 tickets.

but even then that only equates to just around 1.28% of u winning one of 10 prizes.

sorry to hurt ur feelings

To make the guide even better, maybe you can write why braum is a lvl 1 threat and Thresh lvl 9? I mean, a reason for all you listed up and what to be careful of! I think that would help many people a lot! Keep it up

monimakaroni (14) | April 14, 2017 12:06pm
Hey stAMy,

Will do that, just need more time to write down for each build about the 19 champions that are listed.
Thank you for your feedback :)

Hi, I really like your build n°1 as its really powerful when you learn how to position yourself, and anyway without flash you'll learn the hard way ;)

I just can't really stop buying sightstone on 2nd back with swiftness unless I'm just sitting under tower with the adc. I upgrade it last instead of getting mikael's though.

I find this build much more powerful than the regular flash/exhaust, altough you get flamed a lot in lobby/early. When they see the cheese you pull with baiting and that u can position well, suddenly the tone changes! Good work!

Yeah... I forgot the say some words about that flame. But anyway, I am glad you liked the build :)

Hey monimakaroni,

I see you have spent a lot of your time to create this awesome guide. Its so helpful and useful but i have one question. Can i get Redemption instead of Mejai's Soulstealer because when u die you lost a lot of staks. Anyway thanks you for help and now Soraka is my favorite champion. Broken english xd

Hello there, ScdoWn,

I assume that you haven't read my guide carefully, because of the question that you have asked.
There are First and Second.Only the First build has Mejai's Soulstealer. The Second build has Redemption instead of Mejai's Soulstealer and Locket of the Iron Solari instead of Rabadon's Deathcap.
I don't recommend taking Redemption instead of Mejai's Soulstealer if you want to play with the First build. If you die a lot, as I have said in my guide, go with the Second build
Hope I answered your question :)

I use a pretty similar build, but with Zhonya as early item. Man that little stuff saved my life and killed more enemies, than i count. I think that people are smarter in Diamond, but in Silver, and Gold most of them just stand there waiting to wear off. Even if they don't it can make them waste their combo. Your AP is useless if you are too dead to use it.

monimakaroni (14) | April 9, 2017 12:25pm
Well...
To be honest it is not my fault that some players lack skills.
If anyone wants to try this build Zhonya's Hourglass they can buy it instead Rabadon's Deathcap

Hey moni,

Your guide looks good with the visuals and everything! Glad you are able to make such a eye pleasing guide!
I have a couple questions about this guide, but I'm no Soraka main so feel free to come back with constructive criticism about my feedback :P

1. I'm really wondering about your runes. If you are against any kind of mage and don't have the magic resist in lane, you might just get poked out. Armor applies to this as well. One auto with no health or armor means a chunk of your health you could have used to survive or healed a teammate is now gone. Lastly, for Greater Quintessence of Scaling Ability Power, do you think maybe taking just flat would be better? The scaling doesn't even pass the flat until around level 12, meaning the first 20 minutes of the game, you'll have less AP. After, it's only around 8ap more. I would think having the flat helps WAY more early because the 8AP won't be too noticeable later on.

2. What about Ancient Coin? It gives you 5%CDR right from the start, and health every time an enemy minion dies!

3. Ferocity sounds nice, I take it on my support Lux for sure. Wouldn't Soraka want the resolve side, though? Recovery is amazing on her, as well as the cooldown on your summoner spells from Insight !! Not to mention, Veteran's Scars can give you some toughness (or if you take Runic Armor , you can heal for a bit more!)

4. I really do think Flash is an almost must on her. She has a silence and can run a little faster with her Q, but she doesn't really have an actual escape ability. If you get caught, you can't just flash over a wall or something to safety if you have barrier/heal. Instead, you'll waste the summoner spell and they will kill you anyways.

These are just some things I saw but good work! I love the fact that these videos help the reader visually see how it works, rather than just reading about it!

Hey Luxeon,

I want to thank you for reading my guide and commenting on it. I hope that you will find my reply healpful.

1. About the runes: the main reason why I take scaling ability power runes is because I start maxing Astral Infusion from level 8. And at level 9 I gain half of the scaling ability power from my runes and masteries, which equals 50ap. Around minute 15 you will have reached level 9 and from this level on you are going to gain more and more AP as the game progresses. I have learned that Soraka's heals are awesome in mid and late game when enough items are bought. Scaling ability power runes are just increasing them.

Here is an alternative - the most common runes for AP champions

Runes

Precision
Fleet Footwork
Phase Rush


Soraka's Astral Infusion and Wish have AP ratio hence her main source of improving the power of her heals is ability power. Of course, having super crazy heals will come at a price - Low armor. But about the magic resist: you gain 25 magic resist from Athene's Unholy Grail, and another 35 magic resist from Mikael's Blessing.
When on lane if you manage to dodge enemies skillshot (this is why I buy Boots of Swiftness) and land succesful Starcall you won't be in trouble, even if you receive damage like 100-150hp, more than a half of it is going to be restored by Rejuvenation.

2. Yes, Ancient Coin does help you to sustain on lane in early, but it doesn't help you to zone your enemies like Spellthief's Edge and that bonus 5% CDR is just going to deincrease Astral Infusion's cd to 7,2 sec.

3. Adding to Spellthief's Edge Ferocity masteries will make Soraka offensive in early. Believe me, no one expects playing against agressive Soraka, you have an advantage in advance. Just dodge stuns, roots and etc. Land Starcall and everything will be fine.

4. Yeah, Flash helps you escape right away, but as I have mentioned it in my guide, Flash has 300 sec while Barrier - 180 sec. Sometimes you need just one sec before finishing off the enemy and this is when Barrier shows its efficiency as well as when your team needs more time to kill the enemy that has jumped on you. Flash is a good summoner, can't argue with that, but for Soraka with this build I personally recomend Heal and Barrier

I am glad that you've read my build and you have written decent feedback. It is strange though that you didn't mention Sightstone :D because I don't have it my build. Anyway, I am going to upload a short and a full gameplay with Soraka this week on this guide in order to show everyone actually how to play with Soraka with this build.
