Doran's Shield has been the core starting item on all supports since the vision changes. It simply gives so much defence against auto attack harrass such as Sona's.

Now that it's getting nerfed Sona will be able to cause a lot more poke damage.

However the problem is that Sona herself also used Doran's Shield to lessen her notorious squishiness. I actually see the change as a nerf to Sona.
