How to win lane as Brand against Soraka · 51.6% win rate over 1,810 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Brand | You out-poke a self-damaging healer at level 1 with W-passive trades. |
| Level 2 | Brand | Your level-2 W-Q burst beats a full Soraka heal cycle. |
| Level 3 | Brand | At 3 her slow Q root can't punish you while you keep poking. |
| Levels 4-5 | Brand | Through 4-5 anti-heal poke drains her faster than she can sustain. |
| Level 6 | Brand | Level-6 Pyroclasm kills through her heals, especially with Grievous Wounds. |
| First item | Brand | First-item Torch plus anti-heal turns your poke into pure heal-negation. |
| Two+ items | Brand | Your R one-shot on her squishy body keeps you ahead even as she scales. |
You dominate levels 1-2. Soraka has to sacrifice her own health with Astral Infusion to sustain, so every time she heals her ADC you W-Q her face and out-trade the exchange. She has no CC to punish you and no escape from your poke.
