Tips to maximize your impact

Double your Surround Sound
Make Surround Sound (W) your third basic spell: Stage Presence (passive) casts it twice, and the second, cast while shielded, heals your allies.
Beat Drop on a slowed target
Cast Beat Drop (E) on enemies that are already slowed: they're rooted, and those already immobilized are stunned.
Finish with High Note
Save High Note (Q) for a wounded target: its damage grows with the health they've lost.
Send Encore through an ally
Cast Encore (R) through an ally toward the enemies: each champion hit, allies included, extends the spell's range.

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

Dodge her star
Dodge Starcall (Q): if it hits a champion, Soraka heals and speeds up, and can pass that heal on to an ally.
Leave her Equinox fast
Get out of Equinox (E) fast: you're silenced inside, and rooted if you're still there when the zone disappears.
Focus her, not the healed ally
If you can reach her, focus Soraka rather than the ally she heals: she has no dash, and each Astral Infusion (W) costs her health.
Finish in a single burst
Finish your targets in a single burst: Wish (R) heals them wherever they are, and more below 40% health.
