If your really having trouble with the base mana regen before you get philo (assuming you get it in the first place) might have to bust out those ole dusty mp5's. It is alittle bit low early game but I think that's where they wanted to hit her anyway so I don't think its such a problem.

2b. If we were to buff her mp5, we would probably have to further increase the cost of Astral Blessing to compensate

3. Base stats do not mean everything. As much as I really like having them all nice and pretty, there are plenty of huge counter-examples. Master Yi has obnoxiously high health and overall durability stats. He's the most durable champion in the game at level 18. His base attack speed is higher than Tryndamere's. Yet Tryndamere is a stronger champion.
better thoughts could be: God forbid you should have to commit some items for mp5

This is pretty awesome.

I bet Tryndamere would never be played again if Master Yi's ult made him unkillable for 5 seconds.

I agree. I got champions' damage (per level) when we did the Season One site back in July 2010. I'll try to get this one going as well

Um. I want to point out Taric's is 4.1(+.4)... which is lower than Soraka's?

I'm sure his passive is meant to balance this, but honestly, not many people will utilize it just because of the consequences of simply Autoattacking for minimal mp recovery.

Taric's passive could use work, and that goes without some saying...
