Sona Maven of the Strings

Sona is Demacia's foremost virtuoso of the stringed etwahl, speaking only through her graceful chords and vibrant arias. This genteel manner has endeared her to the highborn, though others suspect her spellbinding melodies to actually emanate magic—a Demacian taboo. Silent to outsiders but somehow understood by close companions, Sona plucks her harmonies not only to soothe injured allies, but also to strike down unsuspecting enemies.

MetaBot Tips

  • Sona has less crowd control than most champions. This can make locking down kills or ganking for other players more difficult.
  • Sona secures less objectives than most champions. Your value may be better oriented towards helping other champions secure objectives.
  • Sona has a high rate of healing compared to other champions. They may be good at exchanging hit trades in lane or before teamfights since they can recover damage taken very well.
  • Sona has a much higher late game win rate than their early game win rate. Take advantage of this by spending the early game farming and avoiding unneccessary fights.
  • Sona has a low base movespeed compared to many other champions. Play back towards your tower in lane, and consider early game boots when fighting skillshot-based laners.
  • Sona has more magic resistance than most champions, which makes them excellent in the early game against magic damage type enemies.
  • Sona has more health regen than most champions, making their playstyle optimal for aggressive trades in lane.
  • Sona has more base attack damage than most champions, so they should be trading autos aggressively in lane.
