Want to know about pushing build for support sona.

[quote=Amitalia]Really it is just the items I would like to know. Here is what I have: Locket of the Iron Solari Athene's Unholy Grail Banner of Command Ardent Censer Zeke's Herald Sorcerer Shoes wtih Distortion. Is that an alright setup or no?[/quote]

[quote=sirell]For pushing? Yeah sure, it does its job, I suppose. I'm assuming it's not for serious games.[/quote]

[quote=Amitalia]Well no, I wouldn't be going for pushing as much if it was for serious.[/quote]

[quote=IceCreamy]Absolute core: [[Frostfang]] [[Sweeping Lens]] [[Boots of Mobility]] [[Sightstone]] [[Mikael's Crucible]] Later on: [[Oracle's Lens]] [[Ruby Sightstone]] [[Enchantment: Distortion]] or [[Enchantment: Homeguard]] [[Ardent Censer]] (if your team enjoys the attack speed) [[Morellonomicon]] Plus a defensive item depending on the game. Think about [[Abyssal Scepter]], [[Spirit Visage]] or [[Locket of the Iron Solari]] for MR and [[Frozen Heart]] or [[Randuin's Omen]] for armor. As last also sell [[Frostfang]] because tbh [[Frost Queen's Claim]] sucks. Last tip: make sure to max out your CDR ;)[/quote]

[quote=Vorcia]The Captain enchant sounds like it'd be better for pushing wouldn't it?[/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard][[Ardent Censer]] is terrible on [[Sona]] as you have no control over who the healed target will be on top of the fact that the passive doesn't work on you. The shield on [[Aria of Perseverance]] makes it a little less terrible for the intended use, but not enough to really justify buying it over other items of a similar cost. [[Banner of Command]] would be a better option for a build like this, forgoing [[Ardent censer]] for something else entirely.[/quote]

[quote=NicknameMy]That build is kind of funny on [[alistar]], as he can give the AS buff to all the minions with his heal. And then get more AP instead of Zeke's so your passive destroys turrets as well.[/quote]

[quote=IceCreamy][[Ardent Censer]] is actually great because everyone near you also gets a shield so EVERYONE gets the AS bonus. But again, if your team doesn't scale well with AS then just skip it.[/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard][quote=IceCreamy][[Ardent Censer]] is actually great because everyone near you also gets a shield so EVERYONE gets the AS bonus. But again, if your team doesn't scale well with AS then just skip it.[/quote]I just don't think it's generally a very good item because the base stats are so lackluster. Also only your teammates get it, NOT yourself (which I assume you know), which means at least three of them really need to utilize it well for it to really be worth it imo.[/quote]
