Despite the slight difference in effectiveness, in the Soraka versus Leona matchup as support, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.
The magic damage that Soraka deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Leona has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.
Consider the excellent vision control demonstrated by Leona, ranking 15th (versus 38th for Soraka) in ward placement among supports. This means the opponent provides better map vision for their team. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.5 versus 2.9) suggests they are less effective in team fights.
In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Soraka player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Leona player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.
