Sona vs Rell

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Play a defensive scaling lane focusing on protecting ADC from Rell's engage and enabling poke follow-up.
Deny Rell brush control to limit her engage angles and keep ADC safe.
Use river vision to track Rell's roam timer and prevent mid pressure or dragon setups.

Trading pattern

Use (Q) for short empowered-auto trades only when Rell's engage cooldowns are down.
Hold (R) to punish Rell's committed engages or to peel for ADC during her all-ins.
Deny brush vision to reduce Rell's ability to flank and chain CC with her ADC.

Danger windows

Respect Rell's level 2 (W) engage and avoid stepping up without ADC ready to follow.
Beware of Rell's full CC chain at level 3 when she can lock down ADC quickly.
Track Rell's level 6 (R) cooldown to avoid giving clean engage or counter-engage angles.

Early game

Track level 2 closely and avoid contesting wave unless ADC can follow your threat.
Hold brush control to prevent Rell from flanking with (W) engage.
Keep wave state favorable for safe poke and avoid pushing too far without vision.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks your sustain and poke; use it to outlast Rell's early engage attempts.
Level 3 completes your kit, enabling better peel and poke around brush control.
Level 6 (R) is your main punish; use it with ADC follow-up to stop Rell's multi-target engage.

Win conditions

Convert brush and river vision control into denying Rell's engage angles and enabling ADC poke.
Use (R) in grouped fights or dives to peel and punish overcommitment.
Crash wave safely to create roam windows, securing vision around dragon and mid pressure.

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