How do you mid with Sona? Good question. She's of course rather weak until you get AP, and as Sona you can't really build AP till you at least have chalice. Farming relies on your q aura, of course, so be sure to rush that to rank 2. Your ability to stay in lane relies on your heal, so it's important to put a rank into that as well instead of going straight for q.

I always build straight AP. Some people go lichbane but I haven't tried. Late game, I usually have 500-600 AP. At that point, ult does 600 damage, q does 500, and q power chord does another 600. And rememeber that you can q powerchord towers.

She doesn't do well against super bursty melee champs like Fizz or Akali (She can manage against Akali, though) but because of her sustain she counters Ziggs, for example.
