Champion's Lore

A healer gifted with the magic of the stars, Soraka holds all living creatures close to her heart. She was once a celestial being, but she sacrificed her immortality and entered the world of mortals. So long as evil threatens life in Valoran, Soraka will not allow herself peace.

Soraka lived for centuries in an enchanted grove. A being of the stars, she healed the wounded and sick that sought her out. One man called Warwick came to her grove and begged her to heal his wife, who lay lifeless in his arms. His despair touched Soraka's heart. Though it was too late to save his wife, she offered to help heal the pain of his loss. Unwilling to let go of his grief Warwick ran from the grove, but returned over the following days to hear Soraka's guidance. She began to grow attached to the grieving man. One day Warwick told her he had found the men who killed his wife. He believed revenge would heal his pain - and if he died fighting, he would at least find peace. Though she pleaded with him, Warwick ignored her and left the grove. The voices of the stars warned her not to follow him, but Soraka had to intervene.

She stepped into the mortal world for the first time, and soon found Warwick desperately fighting a group of men. She tried to heal him, but for every wound she closed, the men inflicted two more. Soraka realized that she would have to fight to save her friend. The stars screamed in her mind, telling her not to use her powers for harm. Ignoring their warning, she struck the attackers with a flash of brilliant light. Crying out in terror and shielding their eyes from her divine radiance, they fled. Soraka's celestial form faded and the stars fell silent - for her transgression, she became mortal. She still felt the power of the stars within her, but they no longer offered her guidance. She took comfort in Warwick's safety, gently healing his wounds, but the man she had called her friend slipped a dagger between her ribs. As her blood spilled, Soraka realized he had fooled her, and everything he had done was a complicated ruse. Feeling humiliated and betrayed she called once more on the power of the stars, searing his flesh and cursing his cruelty. He retreated with an agonized howl, leaving Soraka to reflect upon her fate. Though her life had changed, she felt empowered and renewed with a singular purpose. No longer bound to the grove, Soraka set out into the mortal world, vowing to heal the wounded and protect the helpless.

''The cruelty of one will not blind me to the suffering of many.''
~ Soraka

Introduction

Hello everyone, I am Bronzer, and this is my Soraka support guide. I worked hard to make this guide the best I could, and I would appreciate any and all feedback that you guys may provide. Soraka is an annoying pony roaming in its natural habitant - DA BOT LANE. With one of the best healing abilities in game, Soraka is an easy yet powerful support champion.

Without further ado, I present to you, my dear readers, my Soraka guide. I put a fair amount of effort into this guide, so I do implore you to reconsider any downvotes pending the actual trial and testing of my guide that I imagine you are planning to do. And above all, thank you for taking the time to read this Soraka Guide.

Counters to this build

These are some enemies champions that you should pay attention to when you are playing as Support Alistar with this build
DANGER LEVER: 4. Picking a gay to fight against a horse is "SUICIDE". School should teach you that!
DANGER LEVER: 5. Watch out! Cuz Tahm Kench eats horse for breakfast.
DANGER LEVER: 6. Being grabed = RIP.
DANGER LEVER: 7. An intense Support Fight. Janna has more CC than Soraka, but Janna's shield is not as effective as Soraka's heal.
DANGER LEVER: 8. Use your E to prevent her combos.
DANGER LEVER: 9. School should also teach you that Cows can rekt Horses.

Pros / Cons

+ Good cover.
+ Average damage at laning phrase.
+ Annoying AF.
+ Good healing ability with very low cooldown.
+ Global healing.
+ Easy to learn, easy to play.



- Although Soraka is a horse, she is as fragile as a mosquito.
- No means of escape.
- You lose your health to heal your teammates.

Runes

Why not become a second ADC when your auto attacks deal a shyt ton of damage? Just kidding, Summon Aery improves your healing abilites a lot.
At early stage of the game, Soraka's healing is not very impressive but her Q spamming is quite annoying, so Manaflow Band may solve the mana problem.
You are a horse, you are suppose to run fast.
More damage = easier KS.
Your Q has low cooldown, so it will make give your teammate continuous supply of health from your slowed down enemies.
More heal and shield.

Summoner Spells

This is a common Summoner Spell for escaping from the enemies or to assaulting the enemies team. How to use it is up to you.

You are a Support so you should use this.

Situational Summoner Spells


When your ADC uses Barrier, use Heal instead of Exhaust.
BURN THEM ALL!!!!! KS THEM ALL!!!!!!!!

Abilities


In this part, I will try to explain Soraka abilities in a short way.
  • Passive Salvation: Run faster when your teammates are dying, don't know if you are running to heal them or trying to escape from your responsibilities because of your uselessness and depression.
  • Q Starcall: Call the US Air Force to send down a bomb at specific location, deal zero damage but heal a lot.
  • W Astral Infusion: You decide it is a good time to do some charity, you lose some of your health to heal your teammates.
  • E Equinox: You draw a ritual ring to summon Satan, trap anyone who think it is a good idea to stand in it and deal a ton of damage, bring you that sweet sweet kill secure.
  • R Wish: Heal your all of teammates. ( sorry for the short description, I have to cook dinner TT_TT )

Team Fights

When playing a healing Support like Soraka, don't try to become HERO, always be a COWARD. Because if you die, no one will heal your teammates. Stay behind at all time, even behind your Carries. Just heal your teammates, watch for oppotunities to use your ultimate Wish
That's all.

Summary
