How to Beat Lulu as Soraka (Support)

Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.

The magic damage that Soraka deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Lulu deals primarily magic damage (82.10%), additional magic resistance may be required.

Consider the excellent vision control demonstrated by Lulu, ranking 26th (versus 38th for Soraka) in ward placement among supports. This means the opponent provides better map vision for their team. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (3.3 versus 2.9) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.

Key aspects of the Soraka Support versus Lulu Support matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Soraka player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Lulu 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.

Soraka tips:

  • Soraka is a powerful ally in battle, using her strong healing to keep the party moving forward.
  • You can use Wish on your allies from across the map to save them from otherwise fatal events.
  • Equinox can be used as a powerful zoning tool to keep enemies at bay.

Playing Against Lulu

  • The shots from Lulu's faerie can be intercepted - hide behind your minions to avoid the additional Faerie attacks.
  • Lulu excels when opponents heavily commit. Don't give her this chance! Use heavy harass tactics instead to force Lulu and her partner out of lane.
