Sion The Squashy Juggernaut

Trading best sustain Ulti in game for a LOCKED F AOE KNOCK UP . One AOE CC IS NOT BETTER THAN SUSTAINED HEAL FOR ENTIRE TEAM .

You might as well make ASH fly with her arrow and call it Sion rework . Put champion without significant damage debuffs in the middle of team fight .

His passive is awful . Old damage reduction would keep you alive longer! 5 seconds of Basic attacks are not game changing . He ain't Karthus to have that mechanic .

Also what is better in laning phase ? Life-steal that makes you invisible or one AOE knock up.

I'll be honest . These Sion players look like idiots . Half the time that ulti does nothing or gets them killed .

His Q is too easy to dodge . Haven't learned from NUNU Ulti?

You Killed VIABLE AP sion and YOU KILLED HIS LATE GAME POTENTIAL WITH NEW ULTI

You can look like a Hero with any champion if your team is better . In even game this guy doesn't scale . He basically is CC champion without good defense to tank or any dps . Might as well jungle Nautilus if you want stuns .

he has great defense though, are you building straight dmg? hes best suited as straight tank. his shield + passive from w make him a monster. maybe its just a playstyle problem since hes no longer a burst your face off champ and now is a front line initiator/peeler.

I've probably posted this about 500 times now, but I think it's helps my point.

haha ive seen it a lot and its hilarious. but it is also against bots and if you notice at the beginning when he buys the items he has like 7000g. its clearly not a real game and besides, any champ with all those items will do shit tons of dmg. but from a more realistic and not diamond standpoint lol hes better suited as a tank

He really only has one skill that gets more powerful with more health and health is easily accumulated.

Riot might WANT Sion to be played as a tank but I'd rather play tank Vayne than lose mADC Sion.

but your goal isnt to one shot people anymore as sion, but to slow them so your carry can kill them. with his new skills and model he really is meant to soak up dmg and be a nuisance to the enemy team, not to be the top dmg dealer. but, as any other match, all build paths change due to how the teams are playing, so def not saying you cant do damage sion and wreck people, ive seen it happen. just saying from personal experience that tank sion is more useful in most scenarios

I agree. I went 3/6/28 as tank jungle. Only damage I took was Hydra and that was after Frozen Heart, Golem and boots. He is incredibly tanky and disruptive if played properly. I don't know why people think you need to build him straight damage.

Sustained heal to anyone who is also in melee range of the enemy. IF you can stay in melee range long enough to attack.

CoolSpot2Oct 11, 20141 votes

In lane you can heal of minions if champion not in range . Old ulti also gave him quick tower kills .

In teamfight i am pretty sure you gona be in range of at least one person .

Old Sion was better both as Ap carry and as Ad carry(or hybrid mostly)

New Sion has to be a tank but he just ain't tanky .

Old Sion was useless. He was never meant to be built with AP, and this Sion is vastly more useful, fun, and complex. His ult is awesome, and he kept his old stacking hp from farm, so if you dedicate time to farming, you won't be squishy.
