Sona needs to be nerfed, but it would be nice to know from Sona mains where they ant her nerfed.

Having a champion you love is awesome, but if you can't play it because it's perma banned that's a bad thing right?

For me, that was Gangplank and then later Vladimir. I can finally play them both in Normal Draft so I can practice before going into ranked.

Still, doesn't it suck for many Sona Mains to have Sona perma banned? So could you please post down below how you would nerf Sona and why it would make her less frustrating to play against?

Sona does not need a nerf. She's good against tanks/fighters in my opinion, but is weak to mages who can burst her in a couple seconds. Mages can also stay out of her Q's range since they usually have way longer range than assassins, fighters, and tanks.

No, sona definitely needs some nerfs. She's still sitting at a 57% winrate with a 20% pick rate across pretty much all elos.

That's because she's extremely easy to use and doesn't do the fighting on the team normally.

She's always been easy to use, but she hasn't always been this broken. Pretending she's balanced right now just doesn't make any sense.

That data is pre-nerf.

No it's not? She had a hotfix nerf in 6.14, which that data still shows. She went from her 59% winrate down to her current 57%.

LolKing shows post-nerf, champion.gg doesn't really. And she took another nerf this patch with the bugfix to her W anyway.

Q bolt AP ratio probably needs to go down.

The CDR that her ult gives is something that should be looked at.

Poking isn't as tough anymore especially outside lane, but nerfs on that (as well as its AP ratios) would be just as nice.

I think we should wait for the win rate to settle for a few weeks before another nerf.

She is incredibly squishy, lacks early escapes, and has mana issues throughout the game despite building mana intensive items.

Her Q damage was nerfed so she isn't as oppressive in lane when they did the mini-rework.

The extra CDR from the ultimate may have moved her win rate up but she was sitting pretty high prior the rework anyways.

I don't see Sona being banned at all in ranked games. If people are not banning her regularly I don't think additional nerfs are necessary.

Sona has already been nerfed. If you bother to read the patch notes you'd know that she was actually nerfed BEFORE this patch.
