A Probably Bad Sona Rework

Hey, i'm julie, i'm still rlly bad at this game, tbh, but Sona was the first champ i picked up and, well, i gotta agree she lacks a certain skill expression, but it would be hard to keep her music theme without the Auras (video game for Music apparently)

UNLESS, what if Musical combos? i know, i'm not the first to say it, but, what if she had a Hate-Spike/Broken Wings esque "recast" system? where she could cast a spell multiple times within one cast? (only it also applied a buff to the next one in the chain, like So:

**P- **Power Chord stays the same(?)

Q- Cast up to three times to create Damage Zones at cursor.

W- Cast up to three times to heal targeted allies.

E- Cast to grant speed to up to three targeted allies.

QW- casting Q and then W grants a shield on the targeted W ally.

QE- casting Q and then E grants Attack speed on the E ally.

**WQ- **casting W and then Q grants magic pen on the Q.

WE- casting W and then E grants decaying Mana Regen on the E target.

**EQ- **casting E and then Q grants a larger Q zone.

EW- casting E and then W grants decaying Health Regen on the W target.

R- Crescendo stayes the same.

yeah some of these r probs whack, i'd leave it up to Riot to figure out mechanics stuff, cuz i can't claim to be the best at that, but the idea is there y'know? she can spam Q till the cows come home but it would be all-in-all less powerful than pressing Q + W + Q + E or smthing.

or this kit is totally overloaded, idk, you decide!

I like the idea of having musical combos, like a different song sounding different, the effects would be different like you said. Its kind of like Invoker from Dota2 in away, since the end result depends on the combo of keys you pressed. I like it as an idea, but i would not like if it implemented simply because it would raise her skill cap SO much and she would be incredibly strong.

It's interesting but it would be hard to remember all the combos lol

Yeah, I get what you're saying as Sona was almost the first champion I mained (Still play her from time to time). But I feel first off all the combos would be really hard to remember, I get that she can be pretty easy and such, also that other champions have much more challenging kits but I feel like this is a tad to much and quite overloaded. In all it's a good idea but there's to much, it'd easily become over powered with all the versatility, or it'd be very lacking getting extremely nerfed for it. I like the idea and it seems cool but I just couldn't see it in game, nice ideas though and best of luck!
