Key takeaways

  • Soraka is favored in this matchup: Soraka wins 65.9% of 44 games, and the whole 95% range (51.1–78.1%) is on the same side of 50%.
  • Both champions' overall Support win rates predict 53.3% for Soraka; the result is within the margin of error of that, so this matchup mostly reflects the two champions' general strength.
  • Maokai usually wins the lane: 266 gold ahead of Soraka at 15 minutes on average (43 games with a 15-minute snapshot).
  • Soraka players pick the W > E > Q skill order far more often against Maokai: 6.7% of their other Support games, 20.5% 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 Soraka and Maokai 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 Soraka'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 Soraka Build vs Maokai

Usual Soraka build (Support)

65.6% win rate · 209 games

Against Maokai

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 4 of 17 Soraka games against Maokai carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Soraka's standard build instead.

  • Soraka usually completes Moonstone Renewer first, at 13.9 min (median of 30 games).
  • Skill priority: W > Q > E — 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.
