Lucio's core stances are a healing aura and a speed aura, but I do not think Overwatch's healing paradigm would suit League's pace (namely laning). So Valor is actually new for the kit, with Tempo being a way to keep the healing. Perhaps I'm wrong though - since I think Sona's W and E actually achieve Sona's fantasy pretty well.

Yeah, I see what you mean about it just being "reshuffled Sona" - but that's kinda what Lucio is. But I feel Lucio captures what makes Sona unique more, because his gameplay is entirely surrounding his aura - which are powerful and not distracted with an ability like Sona's Q.
