How do you think sion would do as a tanky support?
His ult, Q and E can provide some pretty legit CC, he has armor shred, he can also make use of his W's scaling if he starts relic shield (not to mention assists go well with it). His ult potentially be a kill whenever he is returning to lane (lane gank?)
Edit: I'd assume his build patch would be the same as Braums
Nucleophilic atk2 votesThat Q takes forever to charge. Certainly enough that it is easy to dodge with the mobility of ADCs. He is also pretty easy to kite, so I see him getting harassed very hard in lane.

Hmm you may be right, but its still worth a shot to try out
Nucleophilic atk1 votesYay, as long as you don't try it out in ranked like all the other Sions are doing :(
MHehU50FHM2 votesI just played a match and it went pretty well, maxing E makes it less likely for you to get kited, and you can also use it to poke down the enemy adc by knocking a minion into him (causing it to deal double damage) You can get stacks on W with kills/assists/relic shield/ and farming while your ADC is backing. I'm not trying to be that guy that posts something asking for advice on it and ridiculing all the advice but aside from being easily kiteable (If you DONT max E) I don't really see anything making him a bad support. Sure he isn't at the top of the tier list but it is pretty viable
Nucleophilic atk1 votesNice.
Woodja2 votesI could see him doing decent with an adc such as cait who can set him up for a 50%+ charged Q. other than that he would probably just be abused hard pre 6
7ha7guy7771 votesblitz and sion bot. there's a minion in the way of your grab? not anymore thanks to sion's E. grabbed, knocked up, knocked up again, gone.
CheeseNOnion1 votesI think the E will define him in support; many possibilities with it. Charged Q is for when they tunnel-vision your carry.
Season 9 Amumu1 votesit depends on the sions ability to land his e i think. it provides good poke at a long range with low mana cost, but has a small hit box.
