Playing as Sona

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Choose your last spell

    Choose the spell you cast before Power Chord (passive): after Hymn of Valor (Q), the auto deals more damage, and after Aria of Perseverance (W), it weakens the target.

  2. Tag your allies with your aura

    After each spell, move close to your allies: your aura gives them a damage, shield or speed bonus depending on the spell.

  3. Build up Accelerando

    Hit champions with Hymn of Valor (Q) and shield allies with Aria of Perseverance (W): Power Chord (passive) gives you ability haste, then reduces the cooldown of Crescendo (R).

  4. Crescendo on several enemies

    Save Crescendo (R) for when several enemies are in front of you: it stuns them all and deals damage to them.

Playing against Thresh

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay behind your minions

    Keep minions between you and Thresh: Death Sentence (Q) stuns and pulls the first unit hit, so one minion is enough to block it.

  2. Step up after a missed hook

    Step up when Death Sentence (Q) misses you: he keeps its full cooldown, 19 to 9 seconds, which only goes down if the hook lands.

  3. Don't give him free autos

    Don't stay in his range for no reason: Flay (E) charges his autos between hits, and a charged auto hits hard early on.

  4. Beware the first wall of his box

    Avoid being the first to break a wall of The Box (R): that one slows and deals full damage. After that, the remaining walls deal no damage.
