Playing against Sona
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
Sona is one of the squishiest champions in the game — engage on her directly to kill her in one combo.
Punish her in the early game: she's extremely weak before her items and levels.
Her R is a linear skillshot: dodge it and she has no hard CC left.
Engage supports (Leona, Nautilus, Blitz) dominate her in lane.
