Known Issues

• Due to Sona being an an earlier stage of development, it is highly recommended to use her base skin. Other skins may not have all their audio and visual effects playing correctly.
• Sona’s Q aura bonus trail particles do not apply to certain enhanced auto attacks (Draven’s axes, Caitlyn Headshots, etc.)
• Sona’s updated Audio and Visual Effects are still works in progress. These will be getting more polish over the days and weeks to come.
• Sona's information in the client is not up to date with these changes
• Sona bot is going to be really dumb until we can tell her about her new tricks"
