Since the first release of the game. The support role has been effective and important in helping the team win. Supports are not all the same, we want to focus on the healers. Those are the champions who give extra health to their teammates throughout the game. Here we will review the top 10 best healers in League of Legends.
10. Rakan
Rakan is considered one of the most effective supports in team fights, but his healing powers aren’t that big.
Rakan’s healing ability is his Q (Gleaming Quill): Rakan slings an enchanted feather forward, dealing magic damage to the first enemy hit.
If that enemy was a champion or epic monster, an area is marked around Rakan.
After 3 seconds or if an ally champion comes within the marked area, Rakan heals himself and surrounding allies.
9. Taric
The shield of Valoran “Taric” is considered one of the best supports on the rift because of his heals and shields, but what makes him weak is that his healing ability consumes a lot of mana.
Taric’s healing ability is his Q (Starlight’s Touch): ACTIVE: Taric heals himself and all nearby allied champions for 30 (+ 20% AP) (+ 1% of Taric’s maximum health) per stored charge at the time of cast.
8. Nidalee
The bestial huntress “Nidalee” is known for only being a jungle, what makes her on this list is that she has a good healing ability that helps allies all over the map.
Nidalee’s Healing ability is her E (Primal Surge): ACTIVE: Nidalee evokes the spirit of the cougar, healing the target allied champion or herself, increased by 0% − 100% (based on the target’s missing health), and granting them bonus attack speed for 7 seconds.
7. Alistar
Alistar is one of the best CC tanky supports, but as a healer, he just heals for a small amount of health.
Alistar’s healing ability is his passive (Triumphant Roar): INNATE: Alistar gains a stack of Triumph every time he stuns or Airborne icon displaces at least one enemy champion and every time a minion, a small monster or a pet dies.
At 7 Triumph stacks, Alistar roars, healing himself for 20 − 139 (based on level) health and all nearby allied champions for double the amount.
6. Bard
Bard is considered a high Elo support champion.
You need to wait for his shrine to build up first to get a good amount of healing!
Bard’s healing ability is his W (Caretaker’s Shrine): ACTIVE: Bard conjures a shrine at the target location that builds up in power over 10 seconds, up to 3 shrines active at once, which remain until consumed when a champion steps on them.
If the champion was an ally or Bard himself, they are healed for an amount based on the shrine’s power and gain a 50% bonus movement speed that decays over 1.5 seconds.
5. Janna
Janna is one of those ardent supports who has great abilities to save her ADC.
Janna’s healing ability is her ultimate (Monsoon): ACTIVE: Janna channels for 3 seconds, knocking back all nearby enemies up to 875 units based on their proximity to her, while stunning them for 0.5 seconds.
While channeling, she releases soothing winds that heal nearby allies every half-second.
Janna can use her ultimate for outplaying enemies, not just for healing allies.
Sona is a great poking champ in the laning phase.
However, she is too weak and squishy and can die easily in all-ins.
She has good healing abilities but she consumes a lot of mana.
Sona’s healing ability is W (Aria of Perseverance): ACTIVE: Sona heals herself and the most wounded nearby allied champion.
3. Yuumi
League of Legends has recently released a new champion “Yuumi”, the magical cat has proven a great ability to save allies.
She has a unique style in mounting the designated ally.
The strongest power of Yuumi is that while she is attached to an ally, she becomes untargetable.
Yummi’s healing ability is her E (Zoomies): ACTIVE: Yuumi heals herself, with the base amount increased by 0% − 130% (based on target’s missing health) and the scaling amount increased by 0% − 300% (based on target’s missing health), and gains 25% (+ 10% per 100 AP) movement speed decaying over 2 seconds.
While attached, the Anchor is targeted by the ability instead.
In the second place comes Nami.
Nami is considered one of the best healers ever in League of Legends.
She has a double-edged weapon that can heal allies and damage enemies.
Nami’s healing ability is her W (Ebb and Flow): heals allies and deals magic damage to enemies, with each bounce being 85% (+ 7.5% per 100 AP) as effective as the previous one.
1. Soraka
In first place is Soraka, known among League of Legends players as the “healing machine.”
Soraka’s healing abilities: 1- Her W (Astral infusion): ACTIVE: Soraka heals the target ally champion for a portion of her HP.
2- Her R (Wish): Soraka activates her ultimate ability, Wish, calling upon the stars to heal all allied champions, including untargetable allies in Playful, and herself.
The healing increases by 50% on targets with health below 40% of their maximum. We all know that the support role has a strong impact on the game, especially healers.
They can prevent assassinations of their allies by a “Talon” or “Zed” player. They can easily carry the whole game on their own!
The support duties are: putting wards on the whole map, healing, shielding, and more.
Supports can purchase an item called “Redemption” to provide immediate healing to allies, even without having a healing ability!
