Sion nerfs are a joke

Just played a game versus the inting Sion strategy. I could have swore that they nerfed him so I looked in the patch notes

> V8.20

Stats: Base health regeneration reduced to 7.5 from 9.

Is this a joke? Why change this when you could change the patch 8.14 and 8.16 ridiculous buffs that you gave him. These types of changes have happened in the past to numerous champions where you buff an aspect of their kit then later when they're strong you nerf something arbitrary. Imagine the current Kassadin situation. He's strong because you buffed his E, W, R in 2 patches. As an example of how they (Riot) will nerf is by reducing mana regen or reducing movement speed INSTEAD of fixing the thing that made him strong. It is just ridiculous

Played both as and against him today, didn't really seem unreasonable either way

They did NOT nerf the inting Sion strategy. They nerfed Sion in general because after the W buffs he became too durable in lane too early, so they cut down his regenration which scaled with the usual tank items (remember, hp regen is alway a %age of the base regen). Inting Sion was basically made popular AFTER the nerfs were decided on.

As someone who was an 11k HP 11/1 chogath during a URF match who turned the corner at baron and a 2/11 firoa turned my screen gray just fucking play fiora. Like If you dont 1 Hit her she kills you instantly no matter how much HP you have. She literally does %Max HP True dmg. %max HP true damage, I literally cant think of a more toxic unbalanced thing you could add the the game? She has Master YI as a passive.
