I love Sona as a champion. Versatility and insane amounts of buffs for your allies. she can be played as a mage, support, tank and even... AD... GASP (though maybe not well, it's doable). i just want to hear other's thoughts and ideas for non-meta builds.

Personally I think Tank provides the greatest advantage more so than any other build.

Also i would like to hear some of your ideas for who Sona is good against and bad against and how you deal with the issue.

like i said, when i first started playing sona i went more or less AP and Blitz was the biggest threat with assassins, now i think my biggest threat is other tanks that have more damage.

Ready??? START!

She generally has more success in most tiers in solo queue building AP and Lichbane for damage, although on probuilds she generally gets built as a cheerleader. I think it mainly depends on whether you think your allies are working together well enough to take advantage of your utility.

In lane she has just about the best poke of any support due to its incredible reliability, and she synergizes really well with other poke adcs to force the enemy out of lane. Hook and all-in lockdown supports are probably her worst enemy unless they are pitching a no-hitter and Sona can prevent them from ever landing the cc and following up on it, which she is admittedly pretty good at due to never stopping during a cast. I don't think she has much trouble against tank supports in general (although some of them happen to have the right strengths to make her suffer) since lower range means they're ripe for constant Q's and Power chords. Someone like Alistar she can abuse quite a bit with her superior range.

item 3025 item 3065 item 3047 item 3143 item 2045 and item 3190, item 3512, or item 3041 and literally run around in circles pressing QWE. (I feel I should be more clear, QEW then right-click one of their carries to reduce it's damage.)

It's my favorite way to Sona. Don't need skill when you're a giant ball of stats people can't kill.
