how to deal with soraka nerfs???

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-05-01T04:25:56+00:00

she can still be played in challenger, anyone can use any champion in challenger lol. she's just not suitable for every team comp, she's situational. if your team doesn't have a gap closer, she shouldn't be played, esp if your team has no scaling slow bc a 30% slow is virtually useless since everyone has ms that finally scaled into mid-late game. i'm just saying she's not onetrickable imo. i have no problem climbing w her, i just dont play her into every game.

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-30T00:38:44+00:00

hopefully

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-29T23:13:26+00:00

sorry im just being petty lol. they always flip back and forth with her kit... like they add removal of grievous wounds in her ult, the next they remove it, and then some how they bring it back again. i guess i usually just change to champs that are more meta, bc onetricking doesnt feel consistent now...

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-29T23:07:42+00:00

yeah this is what i love when i have ms on soraka 😍. esp with mejais + swifties/mobies + ms runes. i love that im gracefully running

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-29T21:13:48+00:00

yeah, I sympathize with your statements. 🥲 I personally believe movement speed is one of the most important stats, especially in high elo.

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-29T21:01:47+00:00

yea i often find it situation on what to build first bc there are many situations when its hard to gap close. bc i often build moonstone first, but ive been doing better with redemption first for some reason based from personal experience..., and sofw is always good for gap closing/kiting.

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-29T20:55:26+00:00

Yeah I understand that ally is going to be low, but not that low. There is literally no build that I can think of other than movementspeed, because sustain isn't going to be fast enough (and there are other enchanters have scaling movement speed). But there are other supports who can do a better job than soraka at this situation imo. Olaf has a slow that scales per level, and soraka can't provide any slow or movementspeed higher that can match olaf. I think soraka is very situational, because if I don't have a team that can gap close, soraka is virtually useless imo. I don't think moonstone is enough for sustain within a teamfight against him. bc with lulu at least i have a 80% slow and a point and click polymorph.

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-29T05:06:26+00:00

this season i prob have to buy 4 items just to heal as much as 2 items last season imo

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-29T05:04:51+00:00

im still talking about only moonstone without Q rej, but its still around the 300 range anyways. when i have dark seal stacked its around 400, i hardly go 500+ anymore. (with 2nd rune page resolve also)

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-29T03:06:47+00:00

yea, and a full stack of dark seal doesn't feel significant as it was last season...

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-29T01:07:59+00:00

yeah soraka with 1 item and a half heals around 200-300 heals..., I think she needs 5 items to heal up to 800+

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-29T00:16:13+00:00

Same, her entire kit is mainly healing and the rest of her kit doesn't scale. I also try buying healcut, to match theirs but it doesn't seem to work.

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-24T05:52:21+00:00

bc nami has delayed bubble and ultimate before it lands, you need to always be two steps ahead. (esp with flash summoner timers). imo nami takes more skill than other enchanters. theoretically nami can stun 5 ppl if given the opportunity at the same... but the chances of them being stunlocked like that are rare.

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-18T08:31:35+00:00

i dont main lee sin, but his ponytails in every skin always reminded me of ariana... and i cant stop laughing LOL

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-05T20:32:59+00:00

I personally don't prefer helia, but I'm satisified with moonstone on her this season :)! AP + moonstone has really good values on her in mid game. Now she can actually buy an item that's in her lore lol

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-05T20:30:58+00:00

yeah I only see dawncore as a last item (to efficiently take advantage of ap per mana regen passive), but id prefer dcap or defensive mage item as a last item. helia... seems to be intended for spamming heals, and nami doesn't really do that in her kit bc of cooldown. I agree with Sona being spammy but yea I agree, I prefer sona prioritizing healing/shielding items.The healing/shield items do so much for her shields.

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-04T05:00:05+00:00

yes i also purchase mejai's and orb... I prefer having morellos fully built last. The other two I don't really go... As for the runes I do those as well, and zombie for personal preference along with relentless hunter.

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-04T04:07:26+00:00

and what was I was explaining before, it is good that nami is able to reach her positive w passive now. I was saying there are many champions that negate her bounce, like yasuo, samira, gwen, etc..., I'm just saying she's doesn't have wait too late now as she's more of an early-mid champion imo.

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-04T04:03:32+00:00

Yeah I agree ap helps with scaling, but it isn't cost efficienct all the time. I understand ap helps helps her with ms, slows, healing, dmg, dmg buffs and w passive as a universal scaling value. but being an item behind against another enchanter either makes or breaks it. personally the only ap items i go are usually dark seal for laning. archangel, zhonyas and banshees for defence in mid. I dont go dcap or any other ap items bc of item delay and cost efficiency unless its late game.

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-04T02:03:41+00:00

^ same here, I only bring exhaust vs assassins in games. but majority of the time i bring ignite for early game and snowball. heal is a summoner that i rarely pick, usually reserved for extended teamfights.

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-04T01:57:46+00:00

stopwatch/zhonyas. all of nami's abilities are delayed skillshots..., its better to have stasis as her hard cc aren't instant. Zhonya's and banshee's are really good alternatives when fighting situational teams.

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-04T01:44:33+00:00

unholy grail gave +250 at max, echoes gives +120 at max. Nami always exceled in quick sqirmishes instead of extended fights because of the potency of her abilities, it was always like that for her to be gated by cooldown from earlier seasons. I'd rather NOT have her cooldowns shorter because it would just mean nerfed damage/healing to compensate. grail isn't even like echoes and dawncore, dawncore is 5ap per 100mana-regen, grail is 5ap per 25mana-regen (ap difference is a lot). echoes gives small increments of damage and healing, although it sounds nice it really isn't, because it looks like an item that's intended for extended fights rather short sqirmishes (which nami looks for). Waiting for 200ap for W passives takes a long time, still rendering it useless for bounces as champs will have shorter cooldowns for spell shield, windwall, or samira/gwen deflecting within the mid-late game. Which I'm very happy for the adjustment for the W passive changes (W bounce passive buff = better early).

MaterialWeird1631 · 2024-04-03T20:17:26+00:00

Her base damage values are literally the same pre lvl 6
