Learn how to play with Sona with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Sona's ability auras only affect allies within a short range (400 units). Stay close to her during team fights to benefit from her shields, healing, damage buffs, and movement speed boosts.
Basic Team Fight
When Sona hits multiple enemies with her R, follow up immediately with your own area damage or crowd control abilities. The 1.5-second stun creates a perfect window for landing skillshots or engaging.
Team Fight
Sona is extremely vulnerable in the early game. If you're the jungler, consider providing extra attention to her lane as enemy teams often target her for easy kills due to her squishiness.
Basic Lane Phase
When fighting burst damage champions, coordinate with Sona to have her use her W Power Chord (green aura) on them. This reduces the target's damage output by 25% for 3 seconds, significantly weakening their burst potential.
Team Fight Skirmish
When chasing enemies or peeling for carries, look for Sona's E Power Chord (purple aura). This applies a 50% slow for 2 seconds, making it easier to land skillshots or escape pursuing enemies.
Skirmish
After Sona uses her Q, quickly trade with basic attacks to utilize the bonus magic damage her aura provides. This is especially effective for champions with attack resets or on-hit effects.
Lane Phase Skirmish
Sona becomes significantly stronger in the late game. After 25 minutes, prioritize keeping her alive in team fights as her constant healing, shielding, and utility can make your team nearly unstoppable in extended engagements.
Basic Late Game Team Fight
Sona's W shield only lasts for 1.5 seconds. When engaging in fights, try to time your all-ins shortly after she uses W to maximize the shield's effectiveness rather than having it expire before the enemy responds.
Advanced Skirmish Team Fight
