Man, 6 days later and not a single lurker here has answered your question? I find that kinda interesting in itself.
Perhaps like myself, no one actually knows. However, I have used him over the past several years and I'll try to give you what little insight that I know of. When Son kills someone with his A2 ability and his splash damage spreads, I have seen a hit do 50k on one champ and 20k to another on the same team. However, I'm not sure if it was due to affinity OR perhaps the 2 champs Def difference. If I remember right, the 20k champ was Elsa (weak affinity) and the other 50k was Alice (also weak affinity). But, was the damage less because of Elsa's defense OR was I able to land a crit on Alice and not Elsa because of the weak affinity?
I wish I could help you out better but I'm hoping that p[erhaps bumping this back to the top for you might make someone put their eyes on it and have a better answer for you.
Good luck bud.
