She is less viable than Janna as a support. But tell me who doesnt?

After the nerf Sona is way worse than her.

Soraka is passive type a true babysiter. Offensive support is more fun and more rewarding.

How to support Orianna? Her play style is pretty much like Janna.

Orianna has a shield. Max it 1st and use it the same way you use janna shield. It is as good since it also give resists and deals damage.

She has a slow and it is aoe so it is even better than Janna's. It also is a haste thou its aoe is smaller than Janna's but it is more powerfull. thus alway remember to use it when chasing/ escaping. This alone is enough to pair her escape/chase ability with Janna against no multi-gap-closer. Get it to rank 3 after maxed E then max it last.

Get Q at lvl 1 and max it after get W to rank 3 just use it to move your ball around, checking/controling brush(you should alway beable to get the brush advantage with this) and look for free harass if possible, try not to hit any minion with it.This +AA give her insane harass. Dont underestimate her AA that is what her passive about.

You can save ppl with janna ulti you can do the same with orianna's by placing the ball behind chasing enemy and ulti. You can initate fight with janna's ulti+flash. You dont need flash if you are oriana just plave your ball on some1 else.

Runes+mastery+items. just typical support setup works fine. Better to run Mp5 blue.
