I'd largely agree with that. Many other supports need someone who understands their mechanics better to really shine (ever ran away with a zilean ult on you?), but sona depends less on her team to know what to do regarding her; they just have to stay in her buff range, defend her, and take advantage of her ult, all of which are pretty standard and easy to follow. I'd have to say, however, that I kind of agree with Janna being the strongest in that in synergizing best with an AD carry she fulfills the role of support best (especially when coupled with her very strong cc abilities), as opposed to, say, Karma, whose synergy with offtanks is a little less appealing (at least to me). However, karma does a lot more burst and is more fun to play imo, and I'm new to her, so don't take my word as fact.

As for Sona vs. Janna, it really comes down to how you use their ults. I tend to do better with Sona's, so I tend to do better with Sona in general. If I'm bored of Sona or someone on my team is a crit champ, however, I'll go with Janna for the shield and because I really should learn how to play her better.

I don't play many solo ranked games, but when I do, I prefer Sona. Stay supporty my friends. ^.^
