This ardent censer change was a huge buff to Sona

{quoted}

Ahri is also never picked.

Ahri was picked, but then solo queue woes had her nerfed. Ahri's usually one of the safest bets for mid lane when it comes to a strong general performance in solo queue, so I don't see what you're getting at on that front. She still stands in a better position to be made pro play viable than someone like Sona.

But unlike Sona ,Ahri's winrate goes below 50% winrate. Yes she is horrible in both soloq and pro player according to winrates. Sona does well in soloq and not so much in proplayer. This is not because Sona is underperfoming. It is just that other supports are better due to having better interaction with Ardent Censor(tanks have mastery that is just broken with ardent). After Riot removes mastery from affecting items, we could expect to see Sona more in pro play.

Calling bullshit. If she can't be pro viable on a 60% solo queue win rate, forget it. Only way is if the upcoming Ardent changes somehow make her legit top spot broken...again...and even then she'll probably be an embarrassment like last time.

Pros have late game comps AND early game comps. There's all sorts of variety in at least that regard.

As for the ult size...Idk how they'll go about doing anything about it now.
