So she starts with 300 mana and her Q only costs 20 mana. That's a crap load of sustained damage early on.

I tried her solo top and honestly she can outtrade almost anybody (any hero who can rush Wit's End can beat her though). It's been a while I saw so much potential on a champion.

Gap closers don't own her either. If you dare jump on her, she'll silence you, so you can't do anything and kite you down with Q. "I'm just gonna rely on my auto attacks, Soraka is squishy" is not gonna work either, because W gives her more armor than you'll have for 3 seconds. She counters burst with her skill set and gets stronger the longer the fight lasts.

The only thing that can stop her are ganks and as long as you always start with 2 wards, that won't be a problem.
