This proves that there is not really a strong bond between Sona and Taliyah that results in them performing stronger together than alone.

Taliyah has a greater difficulty than Sona. That means Sona players should be very careful when finding Taliyah comrades to play with, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Fighting cooperatively, Sona players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magical damage. When paired, these champs can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.

In contrast, by grouping Sona and Taliyah together, you will not be granting your other teammates very much attack damage. We recommend you include other champions on your team that offsets this relative gap in this pairing's kit.
