Invisible

Pros . + Soraka is the best healer + Can heal and give mana + Can defend turret for a long time + Very dangerous and uderestimated

invisible

Cons . - Early game little squishy - Need good cdr - No possibility of escape - Squishy against AD ranged crit champs

21-9-0 Offense
. .
Yeap, I changed style. I always played with 40% cdr, but now I don´t think that it´s so important.

I have Summoner's Wrath and Summoner's Resolve for my Spells. Classic AP Offense tree. With Hardiness , Durability and Veteran's Scars for more survivability.

• Greater Mark of Magic Penetration: Give you nice Magic Penetration and with Arcane Knowledge , it´s perfect for your Starcall and Infuse.
  .
• Greater Seal of Scaling Ability Power, Greater Glyph of Scaling Ability Power: AP is relevant for this build.
  .
• Greater Quintessence of Ability Power: It´s fine to have some AP from the start.

invisible

. With Summoner's Resolve it´s very useful spell. It always saves me and my team and of course combination of Heal and Wish is powerful. Usually I use at first fight at Top.

invisible

. I use Exhaust when my fights start -> 70% reduced AD or 35% reduced damage from AP and Items. Awesome! And thanks to my masteries lower Magic Resist and Armor.

.

.

• When Dominion started I thought that I must gave Ghost and his speed to move faster to Turrets, but it was mistake to choose it on Soraka.
  .
• People really like Flash. Although Riot reduced it, there are sill people who "can´t play without it". Well, in Classic I have Flash too, but Dominion is different.
  .
• Promote is good spell, especially on bottom lane. Minions are great help during capturing turret.
  .
• Garrison is fine too. You can better protect your turrets or capture enemy turrets.

Consecration Consecration: This is nice passive. Early game it´s very useful especially during Team Fights against Mages.

But be careful, this passive can have an opposite effect. If you want to go help to your team and hide in bush, it can reveal your presence.

---

Starcall: This is Soraka main damage ability. A little unpleasant is short range (only 335), but it´s balanced with short cooldown. Starcall also reduce Magic Resistance for 8 sec. It can stacks up to 10 times.

• You can try to keep debuff from Starcall, lower MR = better damage
• Starcall has low range, but it gives damage to all enemies in range. For example: When you are fighting against Shaco or Teemo and they are trying to get you to bushes, you don´t need to go. Just stay beside bushes and use Starcall. Same for Evelynn or Twitch. Even they are invisible, they are still here.
• If there is Shaco in Enemy Team and you are not sure if you can go to bush, because there can be Jack In The Box. Use Starcall before you enter the bush. It won´t have the visual effect, but if Jack In The Box is there, you can use it.

---

Astral Blessing: This is one of best single target heal in game. Little problem is long cooldown, even you have 40% cdr your Astral Blessing has 12 sec cooldown.

• Don´t wait too long to use Astral Blessing, don´t forget that it give your target Bonus Armor for 5 sec (125 Armor at lvl 5).
• It´s a good combination with Heal and Wish.

---

Infuse: "Silence! I kill you!!" very well-known sentence. Infuse has 2 ways how to use it:
First: you can Silence your enemy for 2.5 sec on 5 lvl. So you can save your own or your Team lives with Infuse.
Second: You can refill yours or your team mate mana. Well, becouse of this I don´t focus on Mana Regen items or Runes.

• If there aren´t fights and you don´t have full mana, use Infuse on yourself.
• Of course every champion who use Abilities hate Infuse (especially Vladimir).
• Which abilities you can interrupt with Infuse:
  • Fiddlesticks -> Bountiful Harvest, Crowstorm: If Fiddlesticks isn´t clever and start channeling his Crowstorm before you, just stop him.
    .
  • Galio -> Idol of Durand: Keep distance from Galio, so you won´t be caught with Taunt and you can save your Team.
    .
  • Karthus -> Requiem: If he start channeling it when he is alive and you are near him, you can Silence him and avoid damage. But if he use it after death, because of Death Defied, the only chance how to save your team is using Wish.
    .
  • Lux -> Finales Funkeln: If you are fast, there is chance to stop it.
    .
  • Nunu & Willump -> Absolute Zero
    .
  • Rammus -> Puncturing Taunt: You can free your team mate from his taunt.
    .
  • Shen -> Shadow Dash: Same as Rammus.
    .
  • Skarner -> Impale: Well, I am not sure if this works. Because I seldom meet him in the game.
• There are a lot of opportunities with Infuse during Team fights, for example:
  Amumu -> Curse of the Sad Mummy: If you silence Amumu before team fight, he can´t use his ultimate. And your Team can kill enemy attackers.
  But this depends on your situation and consideration.

---

Wish: This is the best heal in the game. It instantly heals your whole team.

• If you don´t have premade and voice communication, you should often watch your mini map and your team.
• When you have Karthus in enemy team, try to use your Wish every time when he use his Requiem. With this, there is chance to save your team.

• Zhonya's Hourglass is very useful item when you are targeted a lot. Give you more AP and Armor (good choice against AD carry) and it can save your life.
  .
• Hextech Sweeper you should buy this item if you don´t feel safe against Twitch, Evelynn and other invisible champions. It gives zou some AP, HP and CDR.
  .
• Odyn's Veil give you more HP, MP and MR. But relevant role is reduction incoming magic damage and his active give you extra attack to nearby enemies.
  .
• Quicksilver Sash is other version of Cleanse. Great against Fiddlesticks and his Terrify or Malzahar and his Nether Grasp. It won´t cancel it (you still get dmg from it), but with Quicksilver Sash you can run away from it or Stun / Silence Malzahar. This is great item against Taunt too ( Rammus, Shen, Galio).
  .
• Randuin's Omen is good choice against AD champions. You have 20% chance to slow you enemy attack speed and movement or you can Activate it and reduce Attack Speed and Movement all enemies in range. Great combination with Exhaust.
  .
• Shurelya's Battlesong give you and your team movement speed (better ability to change place). (When Dominion started there was item with similar Active - Priscilla's Blessing, but it was removed.
  .
• Guardian Angel maybe int´s so great in Dominion, but it gives you more resists and revive you if you die.

.

1. way: This way you are going with you Team capture The Windmill. Usually after capturing mids, there is 4 vs 4 Team Fight (well 3vs4 or 2vs3). When you choose this way, you should try to go in Shadows, it can a little confuse your enemies. On this way, there is relevant Movement Speed Buff, you should use it.

Invisible

2. way: Main priority is capturing The Quarry (The Boneyard] and then go farther on bottom lane. There are 1vs1 fights. But be careful! Not every Champion is good against Soraka.[/color]
