Meh, I'm not sure how I like her rework to be honest. I played one game with her so far and one against her. When I was playing her, I was against Leona and man, was it painful after first lvls. I harrased her all the time with Q (I didn't want her to engage on us, so I tried to keep her at low health all the time) but once she hit lvl 5 or 6, it was hell.

Sona is waaay too squishy to be in the middle of teamfight to give her auras to everyone. However, at the same time, her teamfights are insane. She definietely has more potential than the previous Sona who had only ultimate and auras that gave in my opinion unnoticable effects. She has great 2vs2 potential with her heal+shield and no one can run from her E. We won that game, I ended up 4/9/28 (my items were Frost Queen's something, Mikaels, Sightstone, Ninja Tabi - their team was full AD, which might've lead them to defeat, Ardent and Seeker's Armguard). So even though we didn't exactly win the lane (neverending towerdives from Leona ftw) we did great in teamfights.

The second game I was Morgana and the enemy Sona basically couldn't do anything. She couldn't poke / engage with ult cause I had Black Shield and even without Black Shield, her Q + AA poke combo in early game did almost no damage. We easily won this one because we snowballed bot. We didn't teamfight almost at all though, we just kept pushing bot till the inhibitor.

TL;DR - Sona is having a hard time against almost every other support cause her poke has been nerfed significantly and other supports like Nami can out sustain her. However, she's quite nice in teamfights but it can be quite hard to stay near frontline to give everyone shields. Maybe tanky Sona will become a thing, I don't know. Right now she feels better in teamfights but weaker overall.
