I find that I am enjoying trying to develop my gameplay using this guide. Seems I am becoming more effective as a support player. Pity the author is no longer updating it due to moving on from LoL. It would be nice if the grammar and typo issues could be corrected, but overall a good read, good explanations on the build and how to implement, and some good thought into this build.
Makes me curious how this would work with non support but other AP leaning champs.



Sorry I had no time to upgrade the guide when the Season 3 came because I had a lot of work to do. But be sure I will do it very quickly.. Also, I will make sure I correct every grammar and typo mistake during my update.
P.S. Thank you, I'm glad I could help ^^!

I voted down. In my view, you should be rushing Lich Bane as the first power weapon you get every game. The rest of the stuff can be argued, but the 100% ability power on autoattack after using an ability that stacks with her passive makes Lich's Bane unarguably the first weapon you should get playing as Sona. This may be different on other champions, but the item is simply too good to wait and buy it at the end of your build like you have discribed on your item order.


No that is not right. You are not here to rely on your basic attacks followed by Lich Bane. First of all you need a high amount of Ability Power so you can rely on your Heal, Q and Ulty. Lich Bane with 110 AP is nothing and I don't see point in buying it as a first item. Anyway, that's your opinion, but I don't think you should down vote someone's guide just because it differs from your game play or item build order.

Really love this guide, in my opinion is the best. Fast and secure beginning, and I can help my allies effectively for a long time.

Thank you very much! :D. Be sure to check this guide again, as I am updating it to season 3!

AP sona is OP

Thank god someone willing enough to play ap sona. Every time I play her my team goes omg report this ap sona noob. Until i get 4 kills in 5 minutes then carry my team. But Idk about all those points in the utility tree, since u play her often as carry u might want to go 9/0/21 at least for some early damage output damage. I don't think greed is woth it because it only generates around 720 gold per 60 minute game, which I don't find a lot, but it's up to preference i guess.


Hello SerenadeMasestro :)!

Thank you a lot for your VOTE and Comment.
I agree that a huge number of people rage on AP Sona. I described why I play her that way and why I prefer going AP instead of Supportive Items ( though I sometimes go on PROTECTION Sona - I said that too... )

You probably misunderstood my point with AP Sona :D... I didn't say I am going on AP Carry Sona. My goal is to increase my Heal ( and DAMAGE, of course, for additional damage in teamfights - that helps a lot to my team ), so I would leave Talent Points as they are because I need a lot of Talents from Utility Tree.

As long as Greed is concerned, I wouldn't remove it. It is very helpful for Sona ( and any other support ) since you do not farm minions for gold ( except when your DPS goes to base and you are alone on the lane ). I found it very useful and it is a great combination with other Gold Per 10 sec. Items. It is also a little bit connected with preference :D...

I would also like to say thanks for sharing your Sona game style. I'll make sure I try it once :D!

Best regards,

Your Nemo.

luls, I haven't seen that Sona signature in a long time :) Nice guide ^^ I'd suggest removing those screenshots where you've red'd out your name - it looks like you're trying to hide something.


Hehehe :D! I went to your page with tons of signatures and I chose this one since it was the best one for Sona. I really like it! It's cool! Good job and thanks for sharing it :D!
The thing with hidden name is just for personal "protection" xD. I am not hiding anything :P...

Thank you for your comment. I really appreciate it :D!

Best regards,

Your Nemo.
