Sona is sitting on a 57% win rate with a 19% pick rate this patch. She will eventually remain on perma-ban status until Riot inevitably guts her next patch. Whether that is the correct thing to do is up for debate, but nobody can deny it's going to happen.
So....
Sorry in advance to all the Sona players out there
Sakura Mirage1 votesShe won't be perma banned but she will probably get some crushing nerfs.
sheldonbunny1 votesI can't find where people are getting the 57% from if you would be so kind to provide a link, I'd greatly appreciate it.

this is for Diamond-CHallenger, she is sitting at almost 58% actually (57.8%) with a 12.3% pick rate, soooo yeah thats pretty high.
i only use pickban to look at the strength of champs but you can also check out other sites like i know op.gg is a popular one but the difference is that a lot of other sites like this use platinum to challenger which can sometimes be very different than if you look at the diamond+ but a strong champ will usually show high winrate regardless
p.s. she has atm no bad matchups according to the data which i haven't seen on this site before, literally she has a 56%+ winrate vs any support and she has strong winrates with virtually every adc..yeah she is gonna be gutted hard if the data continues like it is
p.p.s for list of full champions since 6.14 dropped http://champions.pickban.com/, get to see how champs are doing so far at the highest level
Dominick Destine1 votesYeah she's well on the way to getting hard-gutted.

sheldonbunny1 votesThanks to both who provided links. Hadn't heard of pickban. Definitely worth bookmarking. I had forgot op.gg provided that feature.
I've been intentionally spamming Sona games, even in unfavorable matchups with a fair amount of success so far. Besides being more of a mana hog if you don't watch your resources, she feels pretty good atm. Hopefully they don't nerf her into the ground.
Athenes Lulu1 votesMore like people who played Sona and actually never complained about her pre-buff states because they know Sona is far from "garbage".
Don't confuse the whiny Sona players with the non-whiny ones ;^)
