Track: Soraka's E — Equinox (20–16s cooldown). The silence zone cancels your engage mid-cast — step out before the root snaps.
Read from Nami's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Soraka.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Nami | Soraka self-damages to poke and has no early CC, so you control the lane. |
| Level 2 | Nami | Your level-2 Bubble all-in punishes her low health from Starcall. |
| Level 3 | Nami | Your E burst out-trades her sustain in short exchanges at 3. |
| Levels 4-5 | Nami | You keep out-trading her drip healing through levels 4-5. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | At 6 her global Wish can undo your all-in, making the fight a skill coinflip. |
| First item | Nami | Your first-item burst outpaces her heal-per-second in all-in windows. |
| Two+ items | Nami | Your R engage kills her carry faster than she can out-heal it late. |
Levels 1-3 are yours. Soraka pays health to poke with Starcall and has no engage or hard CC to punish you, so every time she steps up you can Bubble her and win the trade; hit your level-2 spike and shove her under tower low. She pays her own health to poke and more to heal it back, so the exchange compounds in your favour. Empower your carry's autos steadily, hold the bubble for the moment her silence is already spent, and keep the heal bouncing rather than trying to out-sustain her directly.
