How to play as Soraka

Hit Starcall(Q) to sustain through Lux's poke, and use Equinox(E) to silence Lux when she steps up to cast; her W cannot be cast while she is silenced in the zone. (Unverified: no source confirms this note.)

Starcall(Q) restores Soraka's health when it hits an enemy champion, helping her pay the health cost of Astral Infusion(W) as she heals through Lux's poke. (Unverified: no source confirms this note.)

Equinox(E) silences Lux while she stands in the zone, which can prevent Lux from casting Prismatic Barrier(W) during the trade. (Unverified: no source confirms this note.)

How to play as Lux

Poke Soraka rather than spending your damage on her ADC, and take a short aggressive trade when your ADC can dodge Starcall(Q) and follow your Light Binding(Q); account for Wish(R) before committing to an all-in. (Unverified: no source confirms this note.)
