LEAGUE CLASSIC CHAMPION GUIDE

Soraka League Classic Build, Healing & Support Items

Support · Mage

Use limited support gold for regeneration, auras, and team movement, or scale healing and Starcall with an AP income branch.

QUICK ANSWER

For Soraka in League Classic, buy economy and team utility before personal damage as support; use the AP route only when farm can justify stronger heals and Starcall pressure.

Overview

Soraka's strongest decision is often target selection rather than raw mechanics. Every spell can protect a different resource: health, mana, positioning, or the global map.

Build logic

Choose the route that solves the current game.

  • Astral Blessing armor matters as much as its heal against physical burst.
  • Infuse can restore ally mana or silence an enemy, so target choice is the spell.
  • Watch every lane before spending Wish.
