Playing against Soraka

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

Focus Soraka FIRST in teamfights: as long as she's alive, she heals her team indefinitely.

2

Grievous Wounds is MANDATORY against Soraka — reduces her heals by 40-60%.

3

Engage on her directly: she's squishy and has no mobility.

4

Her E silences the zone: don't stay inside it and don't channel abilities within the area.
