Very good in 1v1 situations while also very effective clash initiator.

Tanky sustain, great for survivability and overall damage. (Boots are optional, switch them to hunter strike in the mid-late game

Great for torturing squishy heroes.

Good sustainability while maintaining high damage capabilities.
Battle Spell
Very great for flicker combos such as Sora 2nd skill + Flicker. This combo allows you to reach farther enemies who are trying to run. This combo can also be used to perform a set with the Torrent Form of Sora. (2nd Skill + Flicker + Ult Torrent Form)
Don't start fights, let the fight start for you.
During the early phase of the game, use his first skill to easily clear the minion waves and harass the enemies. Do not engage them head on. Wait for your teammates to rotate to your lane, that is when you can engage the enemy head on. Do not rely solely on his Thunder Form. Use his Torrent form to keep enemies from taking objectives. Use Thunder Form to prioritize killing the enemy jungler during the first turtle spawn. Mid Game, start assisting or initiate tower pushing. Try to help your jungler achieve their objectives whenever other teammates aren't around. Never be afraid to check bushes and zone properly. It prevents enemies from taking your objectives, putting the game into your team's favor. Late game. Enemies will be more difficult to deal with. Which is why you should learn how to adjust your items depending on the situation. NEVER feed yourself to the enemies. This applies from early to late game. The timer of your respawn increases the longer the game progresses. Make sure to have solid map awareness and avoid ambushes or ganks. Lastly, support teammates in securing objectives. In the late game, enemies will slowly start gaining power, in which Sora will have a hard time dealing with them. Here's a tip for you. Always aim for the squishiest hero. Then slowly alert your team to advance to the rest of their teammates. Remember, the enemy marksman is the only one who has the highest potential to dominate and turn the tables. Make use of Sora's thunder form to annihilate the squishy heroes.
Best With Zetian
Zetian's ult provides great map awareness and helps in stunning nearby enemies, giving you the best opportunity for a kill.
Watch Out For Arlott
Difficult to land skills on and very agile. Arlott would be able to easily dominate you if you do not know how to play safe.
