Why does sona even have Aria of Perseverence? Its already a bad heal as it is, now it's even worse.

They want supports to be aggressive in a lane, but they fail to realize that not everyone is Alistar and Taric.

As a support player, i'm disappointed but let's see what happens when the changes are implemented.

Yeah this aggresive support talk is really dumb considering the skills Soraka and Sona have in their arsenal.
I was going to say that the Poppy "lategame nerf" incoming was going to make Poppy the most useless champ; but DAYUM, if those Soraka changes go through, AD Soraka would probably be the most viable route to go. In other words she will become completely useless.

Here's my thoughts about the whole thing

SORAKA:

I wouldn't go as far as to say that AD soraka would be viable now, but she's in a rather tough spot atm.

With the change to infuse, she no longer has that mana sustain, so you have to work in some early mana regen to counterset it. (Im thinking Philo stone or mana manipulator)

The starcall change strikes me as odd, you want soraka to be aggressive but still be support, Why didn't you buff up her defenses or make her starcall range bigger to make up for the fact that she has to get closer to enemies to harass, and she's already squishy as hell.

Her W could use some scaling down but goddamm it got its ratio cut in half. Seems abit overkill. Her ult ratio is acceptable.

SONA:

At this rate, just delete her W skill and give us a new one.

TARIC:

Granted his heal is now weaker, but he should be fine.

NIDALEE:

Javelin Toss gets a lowered mana cost and lowered cooldown. I'm ok with this.

Pounce now being effected by CDR is nice, now with decent CDR you can GTFO out of bad situations/Chase down weak enemies alot better now.

Primal Surge. The heal on it was overpowered. It needed the ratio nerf so this is actually ok. The attack speed buff on it was untouched so this actually works nicely.

Swipe is good. and The Armor/MR additions on her ult is decent.

This coordinates PERFECTLY with the recent Tanky DPS buffs.

I can definitely see 3 Tanky DPS Champions with a Support and Ranged AP Carry being the new metagame. Easily.

Ironically, wasn't riot trying to get away from the Tanky DPS meta? Seems slightly retarded to do this with that being said.

The best part is that shields were the OP part of supports several months ago.

I hate soraka...lol with a passion shes soooooooooooooo annoying

I am so happy with the nidalee changes shes by far my favorite healer~

I approve of these changes!~ :thumbsup:

[PsychoWolfen]

I love playing soraka. its so much fun playing that type of support, Nidalee is the strongest healer due to the IAS bonus from the skill. But that global heal is just very nice.

But i don't see Kayle on there

Nerf on Sona?, and here I thought my favorite support couldn't get anymore useless. I couldn't play her before and now I still can't play her anymore.

you actually gotta build AP on her now, and shes not useless

her ultimate is one of the most game breaking ultimates, since it can literally help your team ace for the win :sweat:
