| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Level 1 is an even poke mirror with no engage on either side so it comes down to skill. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Both spike at level 2 with two-spell combos and neither hard-commits, keeping it skill-based. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Level 3 stays a Q-for-Q poke trade with no hook to break the stalemate. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 remain even as both scale poke and manage mana with no forced engage. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | At 6 the competing AoE ults cancel out; whoever lands theirs first wins, so it's skill. |
| First item | Even / skill | First item keeps the poke curves close, leaving trades down to execution. |
| Two+ items | Sona | With two-plus items Sona's aura buffs and repeated Crescendo teamfight value edge past your burst. |
Level 1-2 is a pure poke mirror and it's roughly even: your Q outranges her auto trades but her Hymn of Valor Q pokes back, so it comes down to who lands E/Power Chord cleaner. Hit level 2 first and threaten a walk-down since she has no hard CC to stop you.
