If you max Janna's whirlwind, the she can destroy creep waves when it hits Lv 5. But so does Morgana's W. Soraka's Q, not so much. It takes multiple casts to kill a creep wave. Even with AP Soraka. She is a good farmer, but there are better. I /will/ admit that. But the MR Reduc is better then Morg's, it's spammable for one. People saying "but you have to be close to use it and she's easy to gank," they have probably never laned against an experienced Soraka player. Soraka is not easy to gank. She, if she is smart, should have a ward in river at ALL times. (The 75g ones work, 125 if they have an invis character.) She should ALWAYS be watching her Q, which only lights up when a target is around. Her heal can be cast on herself immediately after CC is off by hitting Alt+W. And as for positioning, the radius on her Q is longer then her auto-attack. Which means you really don't have to be that close to them to cast it. Since it isn't a targetted spell, whenever they get in close, just pop it.
