Soraka

Soraka is a support champion from the popular online multiplayer game League of Legends, developed by Riot Games. She is the Star Guardian of the moon called Starcall, and her lore describes her as a celestial being who seeks to relieve the suffering of the mortal world. She hails from the highlands of Ionia and comes to the Summoner’s Rift on a mission to heal grievous wounds and slay the forces of darkness.

Her gameplay style centers on heal support and area‑of‑effect crowd control. Soraka’s passive, Starcall, grants her a faint healing aura and gives allied champions a shield when she casts her abilities. Her primary heal is Regrowth, an ability that restores a large amount of health to a target ally and can trigger a stun if the target’s health falls below a threshold. She also has a harassing ranged ability, Starcall, in addition to a self‑heal and a summoner spell (Heal) and a mole option (Teleport) to reposition allies. Her ultimate, Wish, is a global heal that restores all allies’ health and stands among the most widely used heals in the support meta.

Lore-wise, Soraka is characterized as an enduring, patient, and empathetic figure who carries a star‑laden talisman. Her narrative depicts her falling from the heavens after a clash of celestial forces, leading her to become one of the immortal guardians of the League.

The champion has seen consistent popularity in competitive play because of her immediate burn mitigation and the large damage mitigation her heal provides in hard‑engagement lanes. Soraka’s playstyle rewards strong positioning and timing, as misusing her heal can leave her vulnerable to an enemy burst. Her popularity has once again surged during patch updates that broadened her damage output.
