When is sion getting nerfed?

kinda sick and tired of people who get filled top just suiciding themselves into towers and winning the game

what do u do against a champion if they arn't worth killing because u get less gold then a minion but if you don't kill he takes your whole base? maybe make it so he is never worth less gold then his first death so at-least then he gives up something for literally going 0/7?

also so what if this wins games... if your 0/15/2 at the end of a game it shouldn't matter how many towers u took why it okay for his champ to do it and no one else... kinda shows unfair favor... and sure "inting" is toxic... how the shit is sion inting any different from just inting

Inting is trying to intentionally hinder your team by getting killed. When "inting" sion "ints" for an objective, he is trying to help his team.

Still tho its unfair in general with the nature of his champion... how does killing someone that wants to be killed make and sence?? He is the only champion in the game that supports the "you kill me and i get stronger and you dont" mentality.. and thats not what league is. The people getting the kills should be getting stronger not the guy who benifits from dying

I agree, although I don't consider inting sion a problem, I still think sion's passive allows him to apply too much pressure onto towers.

It doesn’t apply enough pressure on enemy champions because of how easy it is to avoid. So it’s only logical people will focus objectives.

Hell I still do it, I just don’t build for int.

He was already "nerfed" by the community, who popularized the "inting Sion" strategy which actually crashed his winrate by 3%. He used to have one of the highest winrates in the game, but the very strategy you are complaining about is statistically so unreliable that it has dragged him down to the point where he's technically close to balanced overall now. It's funny how so many people still think that "inting Sion" is overpowered freelo when the data on it has been out for weeks. Look up a graph of Sion's winrate over the last month and see for yourself.

Sure his winrate isnt 90% but into teams that just struggle with his mental wave clear, insane hp and next to 0 reward for killing him... whats the point? You set him back early, he farms 2 items and tries not to get kills... eventually u still get the same result, a 4-5k health, tower and lane destroying monster that makes you sink 2 maybe 3-4 people into killing him and even if you do he usually gets 2/3rds of a tower and you get... 200 or less gold... WHAT?! yea you get less gold from him then he gets from you (assuming you convert tower hp into the respective value and count the wave of minions he definatly killed to get there) its not "op" or "unballanced" its just really unhealthy because if he can do that why cant the other 140 something champions

Like should you just play twisted fate? Go 0/5 in lane on purpous then out value every other champ in the game with the fact your minions are worth more? No because riot doesnt support "feeding" but they make an exception for soin and thats just stupid

What really needs to be nerfed is the demolish rune. Which I think is actually getting buffed on the PBE. But Turrets are changing so I don't know what's gonna happen. Hopefully the Inting Sion strat will fade out once preseason starts and will be less viable.
