New Sona Feels Amazing

Riot you finally did it,You fixed Sona

Right now Sona is the truest of all enchanters imo,She gives now meaningful Aura's and effects and even her passive is a lot better(looking at diminuendo here)

her old self before 6.14 wasn't the worse support ever(that would be Lulu) but she didn't feel very impactful unless you landed a 3 man ultimate i mean her E scaled by a large and impressive 1% Per level back then(a shoddy AP ratio to) and her heal was to reliant on your target being low or else its just a waste of 100 mana

But now,My Q might be weaker dmg wise but the aura size increase all but makes up for it because its easier to tag my allies with it,My W has a slightly higher Base on both heal and shield(having an increased AP ratio to) and is again much easier to use with the bigger aura size,My E is A lot fucking better it has a meaningful speed up even without ability power now(thank the fucking heavens) that +the increased aura size+and the OOC MS helps with team fights and Roaming

Her Ult with the 40% cdr or up to 67% on her basic abilities lets her constantly buff allies and have Any of her power chords up more often I can Poke and give my allies bonus damage,I can shield Every one around me constantly while healing me and the most injured ally nearby,I can spam a weaker Sivir ult every few seconds

My power chords are up often and with the minor tweaks to it i have a variety of options

I can burst with Staccato(and the base dmg of power chord was also increased so thats a +)

I can have this weaker exhaust with Diminuendo with a base of a whopping 25%(from 20%) dmg reduction with an increased AP ratio

I can Slow enemies with my E power chord(can't remember it FML) which also has an increased AP ratio

Thank you Riot, sincerely an Avid Sona Player

I played one game with her earlier to see how see felt to me.

I found my early game was weaker, and the increased ability (and expectation to) spam abilities left me constantly mana starved, even with the regen from censer, athenes, and eye of the watchers. I am somewhat surprised they didn't slightly lower her mana costs in line with her increase in CDR.

That said, in spite of the above she still felt decent. I'm only an 'ok' sona player, but I mostly felt like I was doing something, which I suppose was the point of the update.
