just to put this in perspective

we have a jarvan with atmogs and mallet. he has 4k hp. he has 120 armor from runes and passive and atmas.
we have soraka heal for 350 + 125 armor. The heal gives 787.5 ehp alone. on top of jarvan's 4k hp. that's 5k ehp, so a total of about 5800 ehp. Jarvan currently has 8800 ehp. with one spell, soraka just fucking increased jarvan's tankiness by 60% (and I'm not even counting his shield!). And i think we all know how fucking hard it is to kill jarvan.

So how are you guys planning to skill / open with Soraka now?

I'm guessing I'll be going with W - E - E - Q then E > W / Q situationaly. Or maybe just E for big harass early and open with Faerie + 2 Wards + 3 HP / 1 Mana? Without W, early game trading will be pretty weird though. She still seems to be pretty viable either way. Time to replace those ArP runes with MPen ones!


Still going to stick with WEEWER, E > W > Q > R. If I'm going to test out Starfall, I'll probably add it in 4-5 and see how it goes. Weaker effective heals but still not sold on changing her build yet, so we'll see.

Open Faerie, 2 hp, 3 wards still.

40% cdr on soraka, 12 second cooldown
you're right it'll only be friggin impossible to kill the target half the time

I can only imagine Caller's face when he sees a Poppy Soraka on the same team on the loading screen.

Madred's Blood Razers or Vayne. Armor is useless against both.

Gragas seems to be quite hard to play... any advice? I looked up several guides but most of them rush mejai, which I don't want to even hear about.

Play vayne every game because soraka is on the other team. This would be quite funny

huehue, Armor stacking is obviously not a blanket build. If enemy team has MF or Ashe, have fun building that BR.

Uh, be a bit more specific? What are you asking advice on? If it's build, just start out with the typical Ring, Ring, Deathcap, Void Staff <> Banshee's build.

Dunno what you guys are talking about with roam alistar, alistar basically got no nerfs for laning except his tower diving power. He still has insane laning and insane healing with his 20 mana AoE heal.

Alistar #1 Support now.

actually he is one of the easiest heroes to play, and fun at that. Grab solo top. Grab W then E this way you hit for over 90 with your autoattack at all times making last hitting piss easy, you have a great anti gank skill and you regen hp like a mad man. then just level your q and r and kill shit.

No, Janna #1 support, if you're actually capable of playing support. Un. Touched. I rofl'd when I realized this.

Pretty sure he was #1 support prior to this. Only Soraka could rival him imoimo. Was never sold on Janna, Mellisan just made her look gud.

Going to see a lot more Ali bans in tournaments now.

Finally got around to reading the patch notes and quite a few big nerfs :o Don't know what I think of the Kayle changes yet but in a typical hybrid build that's around a hundred extra damage on to her Q. I forgot how well her E scales but with the 10% and shred I'm sure it hurts. Kayle/Janna lane might make a comeback.

Don't know if the sona/soraka/taric nerfs needed to be that drastic but it does bring them in line with other supports to make more choices applicable. I only felt soraka and taric were a little above the rest and needed toning down. Changes will at least make bot lane more interesting and allow for melee bot lanes to be played consistently. People might have to start putting their AD's back to mid


Thank lordy... I can only hope.

AD/Support bot meta is quite possibly the most boring...


Eh, maybe it's boring for you, but for me it was tons better splitting bottom CS with someone and ending up with 2 underfarmed characters. Perhaps we'll see a resurgence of roam Alistar?


Er, let me reiterate then. Boring to spectate. Not so bad to play.


Ah, boring to spectate makes more sense ^^ But from gameplay perspective, I can't help but feel that it was the better way. I remember when I started playing, I got bussed to bot lane so much and always ended up being underfarmed, was a really scarring experience.

Soraka's heal got a base value buff. When you calculate how much the new one heals versus the old one with just a death cap, the new one is just 30ish hp behind in value. That's assuming you don't have any other AP. If you do, the discrepancy might even go up to 50 or something! The new heal actually heals for more without AP now, so perhaps stacking CDR from the get go skilling the old way would come out to be the best solution? Dunno, you have to try for yourself.

Soraka was relatively untouched in lane. Her later scaling got kind of nerfed, they killed taric, sona kind of, they just shrunk the number of viable support bot pool, but maybe now we might see something different, who knows.

Janna pretty ridiculous outside of the laning vs carry diving bruisers, but if there's no clear cut ulti I'm not so convinced.

I've never viewed Alistar as a support, more like a tanky disabler with a heal... kinda like Taric is now an AP nuker with a heal. I'd liken Alistar more to uh.. Centaur Chieftain from DotA.

Oh gawd, Taric. He went from really terribad late game to no late game. Poor fabulous guy.

I lol'd at the AS buff. The attack to reduce CD is just silly. Does Riot want him to push the lane? >_>

I have no idea about dota but it seems to me he's one of the best laners, one of the best carry protectors (janna is better sometimes, but alistar can help you focus the carry diver), and can also initiate a teamfight without dying as a SUPPORT.

Just last hit the creeps to reduce your cooldown. I'm sure no one would mind >_>

Centaur's ultimate gives him ungodly amounts of hit points. He also has an AOE stun and a single target nuke, but instead of heal he has a damage return aura. He can blink in, stun their whole team, or stun/nuke the guy that's diving your carry, or whatever, and he's pretty hard to kill.
