^100% agree with you (though i like to get two points into W before i max Q so the heal and  armor can keep up with the enemy's items [that ish practically doubles dude!], but yes) I max Q 1st. Playing Soraka as a passive support/health fountain is a waste since her W cooldown is high. If you play aggressive with someone who understands that a turret is more important than cs, you can easily have bot lane in under ten minutes with at least a kill under your belt (i [as soraka] had seven once and my ADC had 2...yup we trashed hard); If you don't then that means enemy jungler parked in your lane which is awesome since top lane is safe and their jungler will be underfed if you warded (and you will probably still snowball once your jungler and ult come into the picture). Her E is devastating against anyone who works as a 'caster' (which is ton of character's, your biggest problem will be who to make uselss) and works in so many situations:Sona going in to heal her carry? Denied, Nunu/Fiddlesticks channeling ult? Denied, Kat just killed someone and is about to troll? Denied, someone about to get bursted? Nope not on my watch. Even Karthus ults lose their 'umph' against her since he wont have more than 550AP, which means his ult does roughly 100 more damage than you can heal (assuming he is doing true damage). 100 damage, on your 3 minute cooldown 'showstopper-onlyreasonanyonepicksyou" ult is such a complete counter it's not fair. Super underrated.

P.S.-I love that you understand, I usually don't spell things out like I did above but my hope is that people will read and stop treating her like a prissy lil Sona...sorry i get worked up sometimes T.T
