How to win lane as Taric against Sona · 54.35% win rate over 517 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Taric | At level 1 Sona is immobile and squishy while your E threatens an instant stun. |
| Level 2 | Taric | Your level-2 E-Q all-in near-kills the paper-thin Sona before Powerchord matters. |
| Level 3 | Taric | Level 3 you still out-all-in her with no escape available to her. |
| Levels 4-5 | Taric | Through levels 4-5 her immobility keeps her losing every short trade to your dive. |
| Level 6 | Taric | At level 6 your R covers your dive and negates her Crescendo, keeping you ahead. |
| First item | Sona | First item Sona's auras and sustain start out-tempoing your all-in windows. |
| Two+ items | Sona | With 2+ items Sona's ult and enchanter scaling make her the stronger fight support. |
This is your lane to snowball: Sona has no dash, no reliable disengage, and dies to a single E-Q all-in from levels 2 through 5. Every time she creeps up to hit her Q Hymn poke, threaten her with E range and force her to burn Flash or back off. Coordinate your level-2 spike with your ADC and you can outright kill her before Powerchord poke adds up.
