How to Play with Olaf as Sona in LoL

The Sona Olaf synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Olaf, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Sona sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Olaf. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Olaf helps Sona perform not as well in competitive League of Legends games. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Sona tries to synergize with Olaf, she sees a barely noticable drop in her total damage output. This difference may indicate that Olaf does not support by providing cover for her to deal more damage or that his presence also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Sona is played together with Olaf on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays without Olaf. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Olaf.

Additionally, when Sona plays with Olaf on the same team, she typically receives a little less damage than when she plays alone. Taking not as much damage may indicate that Olaf does a decent job of protecting Sona in team fights.

Is Sona better when played alongside Olaf?

There is no perfect champion pairing for Sona that will no matter what be her best ally. Yet, Olaf is a very typical companion for Sona. By playing on the same team as Sona, he raises their win rate by 0.4% to 50.8%. This clearly indicates that there is not really a strong strategic relationship between Sona and Olaf that results in them performing better together than without each other.

Olaf has a lower difficulty than Sona. That means you don't need to be very careful when lining up Olaf allies to fight alongside, as they will require a lower level of skill to play well with you.

Playing together, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to dish out massive AD. Together, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

In contrast, by aligning Sona and Olaf together, you will not be providing your team a great deal of cover. Make sure to include other champs on your team that helps cover this relative gap in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Olaf 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.
