Overall, Lucian sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Sona. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN.

This change could indicate that Sona does not help protection for him to deal more damage or that her participation also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Lucian is played alongside Sona on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays without Sona. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Sona.
Moreover, when Lucian plays with Sona on the same team, he usually receives a little less damage than when he fights alone. Receiving not as much damage could indicate that Sona does a decent job of protecting Lucian during team fights.
