What makes Soraka dangerous
Soraka heals her allies at the cost of her own health, silences and roots with her E, and her global ultimate heals the entire team from anywhere — clutch-saving allies across the map. She turns drawn-out fights and sieges in her team's favor with relentless sustain.
How to play against Soraka
- 1Buy Grievous Wounds — anti-heal is the direct counter to her sustain. It cuts her heals and turns her value down hard.
- 2She pays health to heal — poke her down and she can't sustain the team safely. Focus and dive her; she's very squishy.
- 3Dodge her E (a delayed root/silence) — without it she has no lockdown and can't stop your engage.
- 4Force quick kills — her strength is long fights. Burst a target before her heals and ult can respond.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓Grievous Wounds hard-counters her healing.
- ✓Extremely squishy — dies fast to dives and burst.
- ✓Pays her own HP to heal — punished by poke.
- ✓E is a dodgeable delayed skillshot.
