Is Sona better when played alongside Diana?

There is no one best ally for Sona that will always be her best teammate. Yet, Diana is a very typical companion for Sona. By locking into the same team as Sona, she raises their win rate by 0.2% to 50.6%. This signals that there is a weak bond between Sona and Diana that allows them to perform stronger together than without each other.

Diana has a lower difficulty than Sona. That means you don't need to be careful when finding Diana teammates to play with, as they will have to have a relatively low level of skill to be able to cooperate well with you.

When playing cooperatively, Sona players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magical damage. When paired, these champs are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.

Although, by pairing Sona and Diana together, you probably will not be giving your side much tankyness. Make sure to pick other champs on your team that fills this relative hole in their abilities.

Regardless of your Diana ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
