Kai'Sa has a greater difficulty than Sona. That means Sona players should be cautious when enlisting Kai'Sa teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a greater level of skill to cooperate well with you.
When playing cooperatively, Sona players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to destroy wih physical damage. Combined, these two can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.
Although, by grouping Sona and Kai'Sa together, you will not be granting your team very much tankyness. We recommend you include other champions on your team that nullifies this relative disparity in their playstyle.
Regardless of your Kai'Sa ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
