What do you max first on Sion and why?
I max his W first so I have more tankiness without needing items right away. I main him jungle but sometimes I take him top or (rarely) support.

W when I want to proxy farm, or be defensive in lane.
E for lane bullying.
First point into W for HP. Second point into Q. Third into E. No surprises there.
Fourth point goes into W prolly 75% of the time unless I'm feeling real good about landing Qs.
Fifth point goes into either Q or W; whichever I didn't put my fourth point into.
I am really of the opinion that these 4th and 5th points are the most important as Sion really does need a second point in his shield early for the bump in both shielding and damage and a second point into Q literally doubles the base damage on it.
After that I'd say it's a matter of preference. Q does more damage if you can land it well. W is slightly more consistent if you can keep it up and pop it. I pretty much never max E... the mana bump isn't worth imo.
I usually prioritize Q over W.
