But that's the problem: not only is that not particularly helpful in pointing out what is specifically wrong with new Soraka's kit, it doesn't move the discussion at all, as it ignores all the reasons why Soraka was reworked in the first place. It also ignores the fact that old Soraka and new Soraka run on completely different paradigms: old Soraka and new Soraka do different things, and do what they share in common differently. New Soraka isn't meant to be tanky like old Soraka, who wasn't meant to be able to poke, for example.

A better way to criticize Soraka would be to focus on her new kit and her new kit only: what do you find that's specifically weak or poorly designed about her? What do you think needs to be buffed or changed? Is she not achieving her identity properly?
