What makes Sona dangerous
Sona cycles poke, heal and speed auras with empowered bonus effects, scales infinitely with her passive-accelerated cooldowns, and her ultimate is an instant wide AoE stun — the cleanest wombo setup in the game. Late game her sustain becomes unbearable.
How to play against Sona
- 1Punish her hard pre-6: she's the squishiest support alive.
- 2The ult is instant — hold your key cooldowns until it's down.
- 3All-in her mana: aura cycling drains her dry early.
- 4Anti-heal from the first back or her scaling runs away.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓Paper-thin: any engage on her wins the 2v2 early.
- ✓No escape and no self-peel besides one slow.
- ✓Scaling-dependent — end before three items.
- ✓Instant ult but a long cooldown — fight after it.
Abilities & how to counter them
What each of Sona's abilities does — and how to play around it.
P
パワーコードアッチェレランド: 通常スキルを使用し条件を満たすたびに、恒久的に通常スキルヘイストを獲得する。獲得可能な上限を超えると、スキルの使用成功時にアルティメットの残りクールダウン時間が短縮されるようになる。パワーコード: スキルを数回発動するたびに、次の通常攻撃で追加魔法ダメージを与え、さらに最後に発動した通常スキルに応じた追加効果が発生する。
Strong: every third spell empowers an auto — slow, damage or silence. Weak: melee-range delivery on a glass cannon — punish the walk-in.
Q
ヒム・オブ・ヴァローソナが「ヒム・オブ・ヴァロー」を演奏し、音波を放って周囲の敵2体(チャンピオンか中立モンスターを優先)に魔法ダメージを与え、さらに一時的にオーラをまとって、接触した味方の次の攻撃に追加ダメージを付与する。
Strong: free-feeling poke that chips constantly with the aura. Weak: short range for a poke tool — engage inside it.
W
パーセヴァランスソナが「パーセヴァランス」を演奏し、癒しの旋律によって自身と周囲の味方の体力を回復する。さらにしばらくオーラをまとい、接触した味方に一時的なシールドを与える。
Strong: sustained aura healing that wins attrition wars. Weak: heavy mana drain — force spell trades early and she runs dry.
E
セレリティソナが「セレリティ」を演奏して周囲の味方の移動速度を増加させる。さらに一時的にオーラをまとって、接触した味方チャンピオンの移動速度を増加させる。
Strong: team-wide move speed for rotations and escapes. Weak: pure utility — no counterplay needed beyond tempo awareness.
R
クレッシェンドソナが究極の和音を演奏し、触れた敵チャンピオンに魔法ダメージを与え、強制的に踊らせてスタン効果を付与する。
Strong: an instant wide AoE STUN — the cleanest wombo trigger in the game. Weak: hold your engage/burst until it's spent; the cooldown is long.
Itemization
Engage supports feast on her early. Anti-heal always; end the game before her three-item concert.
