Riot Can we have a moment to talk about Sion?
I think Sion is weak and extremely popular now. Riot reworked him and made him so fun to play, the rework happened around when i first stared playing League and I can honestly say this champion was a big reason I got so engrossed in the game. It feels like he was nerfed and then just ignored and I believe there was ample time to work on him (eg the whole Juggernaut rework). It feels really awkward that a champion whose title is the Undead JUGGERNAUT was ignored in the Juggernaut project. I think it's sad the his playrate is under 1% (according to champ.gg http://champion.gg/champion/Sion )
Some problems I think he has are;
-
His passive. His passive honestly only really helps when the enemy team is surprised by it because they haven't faced a Sion in forever. If they know about your passive, they can just avoid you, and if they have mobility lol you don't have a passive. His passive also takes too long before you can actually do anything giving them ample time to just run away. I think death passives (except Karthus) are generally unimpactful to be honest. I like the idea of his passive though, i like stealing red then teleporting into top lane.
-
His W nerf. THIS NERF WAS TERRIBLE. 3 seconds before you can pop it? IT'S TOO LONG. That W nerf is horrible.
-
His Ult. I really love it but it makes me sometimes wonder how actually impactful it is outside a point blank usage or against any enemy who more or less knows what they are doing. I would love it if he could flash while ulting. I think that would make hime more scary.
So what are all your opinions about Sion
