Playing as Soraka

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Star first, heal second

    Hit a champion with Starcall (Q) before Astral Infusion (W): Rejuvenation heals you, lowers the heal's health cost and passes to the healed ally.

  2. Run to your wounded allies

    Get to your wounded allies quickly: Salvation (passive) makes you run faster toward them.

  3. Equinox on a channel

    Place Equinox (E) under an enemy who is channeling: the zone silences them, then roots champions still inside at the end.

  4. Save an ally anywhere

    Save Wish (R) to rescue an ally anywhere on the map: the heal is stronger on allies below 40% health.

Playing against Ashe

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Short trades

    Take short trades: each auto slows you with Frost Shot (passive), and her autos deal more damage to slowed targets.

  2. Back off during her Focus

    Back off when she activates Ranger's Focus (Q): for a few seconds, her attack speed rises and each auto becomes a flurry of arrows.

  3. Punish her lack of mobility

    If you can engage, go for her when her support drifts away: her kit has no dash, only slows.

  4. Dodge her long-range arrow

    Prioritize dodging Enchanted Crystal Arrow (R) fired from far away: the farther the arrow has traveled, the longer the stun.
