Is Sona better when played alongside Jhin?

There is no ideal champion pairing for Sona that will always be her top ally. However, overall, Jhin is a very typical ally for Sona. By locking into the same side as Sona, he decreases their win rate by -0.1% to 50.3%. This demonstrates that there is only a small bond between Sona and Jhin that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Jhin has a greater difficulty than Sona. That means you need to be cautious when finding Jhin teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to play well with you.

Playing on the same side, Sona players will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to destroy wih physical damage. Combined, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

In contrast, by aligning Sona and Jhin together, you probably will not be giving your team a lot of protection for burst damage. Plan to bring other champs on your team that helps cover this relative hole in this pairing's abilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Jhin ally, you need to focus on increasing your income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
