Why is Riot going ahead with yet more Sona Nerfs, when the real culprit is the dual Gold items?

Riot:

While it may seem like we're doing this just because of the in-vogue bot lane Sona, she's been extremely close to our thresholds for acceptable win rates (outlined in our Balance Framework that you should go read if you haven't already) in solo queue for awhile and is the most commonly banned bot lane champion in pro play right now.

We're also seeing more than just Sona with Taric, mind you. We're seeing Sona and Tahm Kench, Sona and Pyke, etc. which points toward specifically nerfing her rather than Taric. To be clear, we're not explicitly trying to kill Sona + XX bot lanes: Even if she were a standard bot carry, she'd still be deserving of a nerf on multiple fronts.

WRONG RIOT.

What makes the lane work:

+ + Klepto.

It has NOTHING TO DO WITH SONA's "Strengths."

It has to do with the fact in this lane she has THREE incomes!

There was a reason Riot nerfed in regards to adcs! Because..... it created a dual income lane and because it allowed adcs to heal supports.

There's a reason Riot changed + to not be reliable proccers on solo lanes (dual incomes)

There's a reason Riot changed + to be impossible to purchase on the same champion (dual incomes)

What dual income/wards is left? AD Melee champions and a poke support!

Close the loophole. Don't nerf a champ you've applied 4 consecutive nerfs to!

This is also a strategy Riot itself notes is a PRO PLAY PROBLEM.

In the one pro play game I saw it played in, C9 Sneaky and his Taric also SHARED the CS (Both ended game with about 140 CS)

^ Watch. Gold income is why this works. NOT some in born Champ advantage.......
