How to Beat Rell as Sona (Support)

The Sona versus Rell matchup as support is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.

The magic damage that Sona deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Rell has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.

Consider the excellent vision control demonstrated by Rell, ranking 2nd (versus 16th for Sona) in ward placement among supports. This means the opponent provides better map vision for their team. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.9 versus 3.1) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Sona Support versus Rell Support matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Sona player to maintain constant pressure on Rell, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
