How to play as Soraka

Use Starcall(Q) to trade and restore your own health, and keep Equinox(E) for a moment when Yuumi detaches or her ally commits. Press the early lane advantage before Yuumi's shielding and attached sustain build up.

Soraka's Starcall(Q) restores her health when it hits, and Astral Infusion(W) spends her health to heal an ally; Yuumi instead supplies a shield and movement speed with Zoomies(E).

Equinox(E) silences enemies in its zone and roots those who stay until it expires, while Yuumi becomes untargetable from most enemy effects after You and Me!(W) attaches her to an ally.

How to play as Yuumi

Stay attached while Soraka has Equinox(E) ready, and use Zoomies(E) to protect your ally through her poke. Avoid detaching just to trade if Soraka can place her silence under you.
