Overview
This is a simple and straightforward guide for beginners to follow. This covers how you generally want to play Sora in the Exp lane.
Strengths
-Easy to build and scales well to late game -Ultimate is extremely versatile; can be used for finishing or greatly damaging enemies, or be used for team setup for strong crowd control
Weaknesses
-His non-ultimate Skills can be cancelled and can be disrupted, breaking your combo or putting you in a vulnerable position. -Playing in the exp lane, outside of emblems or items, he does not have any form of sustain (heal or shield) which leaves little room to adapt builds
Standard build
This will be Sora's standard build. It gives you the full cooldown reduction, great defense and offense.
Core items
These will be your core items and synergize greatly with Sora's kit. It has attack and HP where your Ultimate can utilize in either form, 20% CD reduction, and 18% spell vamp.
When You Are Behind
If you are losing your lane, or you're having a hard time, skip War Axe and opt to build Queen's Wings and Oracle to be more defensive.
Fighter Emblem Sora
Fighter emblem will be your go to choice for this guide. Vitality for that small boost in HP and damage Festival of Blood for sustain using your skills And Brave Smite for extra heal, to trade efficiently in lane.
Battle Spell
For this guide, Petrify will be your go to spell. Activate it when ambushing enemies, before setting up teamfight to avoid your skills getting cancelled, or activate it to give extra time to finish off your enemies.
When to use Thunder Or Cloud Form?
For simplicity: Use Thunder Form (swipe left) against solo heroes to burst, while use Cloud Form (swipe right) against a multiple enemies to setup
Level 1 to 4 - Early Game, Self Control and Discipline
Don't be too aggressive. Control or freeze your lane; your goal is to reach Level 4 and have your Ultimate so you can be a threat and control the first turtle.
Level 5 to 9 - Mid Game, Lane Dominance and pressure
This is where you can now pressure your lane and punish your opponent with your Ultimate. If you are unable to push your own lane, then move to another lane and push that instead.
Level 10 to 15 - Late game, teamfighting
By the late game, try to setup for your team using Cloud form. Use Thunder form for enemies that are out of position or alone.
