I was playing Taric the other day and a level 10 Fiora with ~200 AD whomped me in like 3 seconds when I had 200 armor and 2000 health. Check her new abilities, notice % max health true damage. Hmmmmm, seems balanced.

Would explain why she was doing like 500+ true damage though. Good lawd.

Doesn't Fiora have like 35% winrate? Played her and against her and didn't even consider that a real champion.

Reliability is king. Soraka is a 5th pick cheese pick that can win you the game in champ select if the other team doesn't have an answer for her rediculous heals and can let you get away with having no support presence in the early game, but gets absolutely dismantled by control of any form. I honestly think Alistar is her hardcounter and hes priority right now so that says alot as well.

Soraka is not reliable so she doesnt see play.

That being said I really wish someone would grab it in a sexy 5th pick cheese one-off game and then figure out the proper conditions to draft it occasionally. :/

Her and Zilean.

Why is alistar a counter to soraka? He has a fairly weak engage and low damage meaning its pretty easy for soraka to outheal

sorakas quite strong in lane due to insane heals and quite strong in 3v3's but weak against ganks and cant aggressively roam

Zilean is the only champ in the game that has made me go "this shit is too hard not worth".Like seriously those bombs really need a buff.

The real hardcounter to soraka is laneswaps and junglers.

There's a cast time on it, so even going QWQ is hard, the delay is noticeable and you have to lead with the second one (meaning you can't attempt the combo at max range).
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

soraka has no strong gank escapes the way shit like thresh alistar janna have and she also can't harass well in a 2v1 situation
she is probably okay at 3v1 dives because of heal and sielnce though
in fact probably really strong combined with jinx and junglers cc since you can just get a guaranteed silence+root

problem is 3v1 dives don't happen unless the enemy fuck up real bad but then it doesn't matter champ you picked really

Just played an Aram where for the first time I didn't feel like complete ass as Zed. Was weird. Reminded me why I don't play champions with long range jump abilities.

Zilean is a bunch of setup for one scenario he's kinda-sorta good at, if your team is in a position to follow up, and you have a good ult target, and they're squishy. I hate the whole idea of his kit. I own him because at least he was fun in aram because lolbombs; he doesn't even have that now.

Fiora's new and difficult to play and not really traditional at all and undertuned. I dunno what people expected for her winrate.

I dunno, I think lobbing bombs at health packs and Dirty Harrying it is amusing.

I dont see how Soraka survives in a professional game with an Alistar on the other team specifically. Early she just gets outroamed in the laneswap - what exactly does soraka do in a laneswap? At the very least she cannot make solo plays like Alistar and has to work with her jungler to gank and even then she has a high chance of getting counterganked. And in the teamfight phase she just gets flanked, cced and then cannot do anything against Alistar's control. Or at least thats how i see it playing out.

Couldn't she be a real pain in the ass in invades? Especially if you pull the jungler with you and just drop the silence/snare field on them while they're taking gromp?

alistar doesnt interact with soraka at all really.
alistar usually plays defensively or a head on engage, soraka stays furthest behind, alistar isn't really anything to soraka

an important point is that nobody at all has ever played new soraka in competitive, that might mean he's bad but it also might mean that nobody practiced her -->nobody plays her -->nobody sees her -->nobody practices here circle
look at how long hecarim went under the radar

that said soraka is obviously going to have some problems in competitive (supports are usually picked early, lots of really OP supports available, can't harass at all in laneswaps)

http://lol.esportspedia.com/wiki/IEM_Season_IX_-_San_Jose/Picks_and_Bans only time she was played as far as I am aware in c9 vs uol and c9 vs alliance.

Her strong points aren't really something that is desired in competetive so it makes sense nobody has really played her.Especially the whole sucks donkey dick at roaming.


her roaming is actually sick you run to mid laen heal him to full and its gg

Honestly Soraka is very, very strong but the problem is that you have to build the team around her and that's not exactly a popular idea in League.

Wondering why Soraka isn't picked in a meta dominated by support roams and engage control.

Alright.

I find her to be a very strong zoning support, her E is basically a gravity field with a silence attached.

What's she do when Sivir Rs her whole team into your face? When Janna disengages any time your top or jungle try to engage? When Viktor drops ult and laser on your ADC and he's dead before you get a heal off? When Alistar's roaming in the 2v1 and you're useless for 15 minutes?

She's fantastic in soloq. I've said as much since she got reworked, actually. But in competitive? Not until someone counters 2v1 and Sivir gets nerfed.

a perfectly played soraka should be fine vs alistar but alistar punishes any positioning mistake from soraka really hard. especially in ganks.

however this is not specific to alistar and applies to thresh/leona/annie/naut.


alistar doesnt punish soraka hard at all compard to thresh/leona or whatever
