Picking Sona against a kill lane is suicide though, while Karma does well against them. And while it's easier to poke with Sona the amount of damage that Karma can output is way higher at all stages of the game.

That is what Janna does though, she uses her shield and disengage to make sure that her ADC never dies. If you're playing Karma your not trying to be passive, and it's obvious that a champion such as Janna who negates a lot of damage is good against someone trying to inflict it.

Just because a champion doesn't excel against a certain type of champion doesn't mean that it's inferior in every way. You just have to use its strengths correctly and pick it when it can shine.
