Sona vs Galio

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Play a defensive scaling lane to protect ADC from Galio's engage and roam pressure.
Control brush to deny Galio's taunt and knock-up angles on your ADC.
Use poke and sustain to enable safe ADC trades and avoid extended fights until level 6.

Trading pattern

Take small empowered (Q) trades only when (W) and (E) are on cooldown to protect ADC.
Hold (R) to peel or punish Galio's all-in attempts with ADC follow-up.
Deny Galio brush access to reduce engage angles and create safer poke windows for ADC.

Danger windows

Respect (W) taunt and (E) knock-up cooldowns as they enable Galio's all-in threat on ADC.
Beware Galio's level 6 (R) roam and follow-up; ward river to track side fight impact.
Avoid stepping into brush without vision to prevent Galio's engage from fog and deny ADC safety.

Early game

Track level 2 closely and avoid stepping up without ADC follow-up to survive Galio's short trades.
Hold brush control to prevent Galio from landing (W) taunt and (E) knock-up on your ADC.
Keep wave near turret early to limit Galio's roam and protect ADC from engage.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks sustain and poke; use it to outlast Galio's short trades with ADC support.
Level 3 grants movement aura, improving ADC follow-up and peel against Galio's engage.
Level 6 (R) is main counter-engage tool; use it to stop Galio's all-ins or secure teamfight control.

Win conditions

Survive early lane using (W) sustain and (Q) poke to enable ADC scaling.
Control brush and river vision to deny Galio's engage and roam opportunities.
Use (R) with ADC follow-up to punish grouped enemy commits and secure dragon or fights.

Tip: For Sona vs Galio, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Support lane check.
