Key takeaways

  • Soraka consistently wins this matchup across a large sample: Lux wins 42.8% of 444 games (95% range 38.3–47.4%).
  • That is 4.7 points worse for Lux than both champions' overall Support win rates predict (47.5%), so the matchup itself works against this pick.
  • Lux usually wins the lane: 448 gold ahead of Soraka at 15 minutes on average (223 games with a 15-minute snapshot).
  • Lux players pick Shadowflame much less often against Soraka: 27.5% of their other Support games, 19.1% here.
How we calculate this

Games: ranked Solo/Duo and Flex games on the North America server from the patch shown. Remakes (games under 5 minutes) are excluded.

A game only counts when Lux and Soraka played the same position on opposite teams, so roaming, lane swaps within a team or a champion merely being in the same game never count as this matchup.

The 95% range is a Wilson score interval. Confidence comes from how wide that range is: within ±3 points is very high, ±5 high, ±8 moderate, anything wider low. Below 20 games a matchup is not classified at all.

Expected win rate combines both champions’ win rates in this lane (same games and filters) with the log5 formula: E = A(1−B) / (A(1−B) + B(1−A)). Matchup effect = observed − expected.

"What changes" compares Lux's choices in this matchup with the same champion's other games in the same lane, and lists a change only when it is at least 3 points and statistically significant (two-proportion z-test, |z| ≥ 2, 20+ games).

Results are not split by rank: the sample per rank is too small for honest per-rank matchup numbers.

Best Lux Build vs Soraka

Usual Lux build (Support)

91.7% win rate · 12 games

Against Soraka

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 9 of 67 Lux games against Soraka carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Lux's standard build instead.

  • Lux usually completes Luden's Echo first, at 14.3 min (median of 151 games).
  • Soraka usually completes Moonstone Renewer first, at 13.3 min (median of 189 games).
  • Skill priority: E > Q > W — the same as usual.

Builds are ranked by the lower edge of their win rate range, not the raw win rate, so a build seen in a handful of wins never outranks a proven one.
