Can Sona finally receive some much needed nerfs?

She is one of those champions who RIOT seem to just ignore the fact that she has been the highest win rate champion for months and has also been within top ten most played to boot. I get we are still seeing residual stats from ardent censor meta, but she still is super powerful with the new runes. Sorcery is super strong on her, even without klepto just feeding her free consumables and gold.

what?... She's not even close to highest winrate, and during the ardent meta, they changed ardent numbers, not everybody elses. If she's going damage, you need to go all in on her. If you let her Q and walk away without trading, shes gonna win, all there is too it. She's very vulnerable, with low defs and HP, and all she has to harass you is Q. If she uses it, that's an opportune time for you to attack her back. She doesn't need nerfs, and I don't even play her.

She has a 58% win rate atm, aery is completely overpowered on her.

It's day 2 of the preseason

Oh ok, I don't pay attention to anything under diamond. In that case, I can see going from ardent stats to preseason, and her numbers have probably been majorly inflated the past few days.

She got a micropatch ARMOR 30 ⇒ 28 BASE ATTACK DAMAGE 50.04 ⇒ 46

ARIA OF PERSEVERANCE BASE HEAL 35/55/75/95/115 ⇒ 30/50/70/90/110 ARIA OF PERSEVERANCE SHIELD STRENGTH 30/55/80/105/130 ⇒ 25/50/75/100/125

That is not really a noticeable nerf besides base AD. 5 points off of her abilities base stats and 2 armor. Im more concerned with CD and mana costs. The abilities themselves are ok, maybe a slight nerf to scaling but when she becomes a spam bot with so much CDR and Aery now nuking and shielding champions for her, it is too much.

Sona should be one of the beginner champions. They should also add a jungler champion to the beginners selection my guess would be Warwick or MasterYi.

Even Yi and WW have to at least stand next to their targets. Sona can do everything from a distance and has a reliable safety net if needed (ult). so she is even easier for a beginner. But she is too easy.

Perhaps all of her abilities could be skillshots. make them the shape of the various Cleffs like the Treble, Bass, and Alto. so she takes real skill, then just give her buffs to numbers, and nerf to scalings.
