Champion Build Guide

Hello!
My name is Magdaleno9. I'm a Sona main and mostly i play in LAS. As you may notice my english is not very good but i'll try my best. So, i liked Sona basically since i started playing league in season 9. I consider her, and i know this is an unpopular opinion, one of the best supports you can play this level up your ELO. She is super strong late game with shields and heals, strong poke early and if you position yourself correct you won't have a hard time in laning phase. With the correct items and runes i will try my best to give you a good Sona guide :).This is my first guide and i will keep building / improving so it will be more dynamic and have more information :) plus this is the first time using mobafire so please don't hate me. If you have some doubts feel free to ask me <3. This is just the beginning :D.

As you may see, Sona has a lot of variety in terms of her runes. Each of her runes have a purpose, and it is either surviving laning phase and get safely into late game, or trying to win early game to take advantage of the game. Basically, your whole fate of the game is decided when you choose your runes.
GUARDIAN: Really strong rune page vs a hard engage supports. If you get caught, this will her you survive and this helps a lot with Sona's weakness which is her squishiness.
Aery + Resolve: Really good standard and scaling rune with gathering storm. Helps you surviving a bit more combined with strong heals and damage. This is my favourite rune page <3
Aery + Precision: Strong vs a poking laning phase like a Janna, Lulu, Yuumi, etc. Prescence of mind will help you with your mana issues so you won't need tear and you will poke more. Scorch + Cut down will enhance your poke.
Aery + Domination: Ingenious hunter is super strong combined with moonstone. You will proc it 35% more and that means more heals!. You will be squishy but your healing will be INSANE,
Please position yourself correctly, poke safely to stack your support item and if you can. Use your power cord Q to do a bunch of damage. When your jungler is ganking you, engage with power cord E, so he/she can gank better :). If you both are figthing (you and your ADC) consider power cording W the enemy ADC so you both can win fights.
LEARN HOW TO USE YOUR POWER CORD, IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT OF SONA.
If the enemies are damaged, it may be a good time to engage. Always engage with your R and Power cord E so they can't escape, don't waste your FLASH. If you misposition, it will help you a lot. Try to avoid using R + Flash.
Try to stay in the back of the fights and only get a little ahead to use your R. If it will catch more than 1 enemy, PERFECT. Also, take into consideration the enemies' items. If they have tenacity boots, your R will be useless so try to use your ultimate on the enemies who doesn't have that boots or use your R to cancel some abilities like a Katarina R. :)
VALUE YOUR R EITHER TO ENGAGE OR TO CANCEL STRONG ULTIMATES.
