Is Sona better when played alongside Vi?

There is no perfect companion for Sona that will always be her best ally. However, Vi is a very typical ally for Sona. By playing on the same side as Sona, she improves their win rate by 0.7% to 51.1%. This clearly indicates that there is only a small bond between Sona and Vi that results in them performing better together than alone.

Vi has a lower difficulty than Sona. That means Sona players don't need to be cautious when arranging Vi allies to play with, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to play well with you.

Working cooperatively, you should observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to dish out massive AD. Together, these champions should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

In contrast, by bringing Sona and Vi together, you may not be providing your side a great deal of engage. Make sure to include other champions on your team that neutralizes this gap in their playstyle.

Regardless of the ability of your Vi teammate, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
