I would probably put Lulu and maybe also Yuumi into the second tier because they both got buffed recently and Yuumi's healing is super strong in late game and Lulu got more harass and shield power than ever thanks to the new patch.
I would also put Sona just a little higher. She's at least just as useful as Lux in my opinion. But I guess that depends on the player's play style.
Also, I think you forgot to add Malphite.
Sona: Glass cannon without the cannon, Is a fusion of many concepts while being the worse at all of them
You want her auras? Just play Taric
you want her heal spamming? Just play sorraka
You want her big cc stun ultimate that is ultra fast, literaly just play Alistar and press W/Q
MF is in C tier which is pretty low, as for why she's in the "middle", it's becuase she has very specific match ups that make her note worthy, example into immobile adcs like jinx, or zyra
As for Galio; Can't believe I forgot to add him, He's in around S for competitive, A for solo q
While she gets a huge power spike at level six through her high burst cc ultimate, her core problem is that this champion simply can't lane, if she faces literally any of the S tier or B tier champions, almost all of them having HARD cc, she will die faster than you can say. "wtf that's so broken". The reason why her win rate is so good, is largely because of low elo, and a low pick rate. Which U.GG doesn't properly calculate. if you go to lol alytics, set it on korea, than support, go to pick rate, start at low elo, you will notice her pick rate is decent, than gets lower and lower the higher you go, until it becomes a none existent score of 1 at masters. Now why is that?
It's because she's an annoying poke bot, low elo players, literally have no idea how to play against poke, look at zyra and lux, these are support champions that most low elo players flat out int against. Yet their pick rate becomes Tiny and none existent in higher elo. This is because high elo knows the champions that counter it, and they know how to play against it.
So than one might the question. "Why not make a high elo, and low elo tier list?"
For that's simply incorrect thinking. That is you going into your games, assuming your opponents are bad, when you should be fully prepared for a scenario of what happens when you are facing someone competent.
This is not Sona hate, this is not biased, ask anyone in high elo Diamond+ and they will often give you the same response I am.
"Oh Sona, good against bad players, horrible against decent players"
that or they will be even blunter and say. "Garbage champion, i dodge if you pick it" her biggest niche is the fact shes suppose to be a long range poke bot. One problem, her range isn't that good, and requires her putting herself in danger, which exposes her biggest weakness. Her squishiness.
if you want poke, just play lux or zyra or brand.
I hope this answers your question, if you for whatever reason like playing Sona, good for you, i'm not telling you to stop, but if you chose to main any champion you should always go in with the full knowledge of their weakness.
Sonas Cons
-Super Squishy
-mid tier range when it should be High Tier
-Super reliant on a level six spike
-Mana consuming
-Gets hard countered by hard cc, which is what's meta right now

P.S I did take into consideration Blitzcrank, and while I don't like him, his placement was abit to low, so i gave him a upgrade, as to why I placed him low. Blitz is simply the low iq thresh/nautlist/pyke.

But anyway, it's a cool tier list. Keep going.

Sure she might not be the best at anything, but she has a lot of tools to work with. Surely she is better than a D tier?
