Why this duo works

Soraka's healing gives Tristana a safer way to trade and recover without forcing every lane into an early all-in. Her silence and root can also help protect Tristana when she does commit to a jump.

Measured in High Elo: this duo wins 1.9pp more often than expected over 1,849 games.

Playing the duo

Soraka can restore Tristana with W and Wish(R), while Starcall(Q) heals Soraka when it hits; this gives the pair repeated sustain through trades.

How to play as Tristana

With Soraka, take controlled trades and let her healing restore your health instead of forcing every early all-in; jump when the enemy wastes the crowd control that could stop your follow-up.

How to play as Soraka

Land Q before healing with W when possible so you can recover some of the health you spend, and hold Equinox to silence or root the enemy who tries to punish Tristana's jump.
