It's good you didn't give into the crybabies. Nothing wrong with this strategy because that's what it is: A strategy.
Why people are crying when there's potentially 5 people would could now win a TF Vs 4 and baron to end or rush mid when Sion is inting or in death timer I don't know.
Wish people would stop crying just because they don't like something. It might be annoying but it opens the door to a free win if you're coordinated enough.
Zéychin4 votesPeople hate the strategy because you have to send a babysitter to the lane or he will AFK ult into the tower on cooldown. Him ulting to the tower means that if you're not already actively winning a fight near an objective, you are already losing the objective trade. So your team scrambles to either engage or to stop the AFK push. This is solo queue, so people are not going to be on the same page. and there might be a terrible engage. You might not be able to engage due to enemy team comp. Maybe half your team tries to go stop Sion, right as your tank tries to engage. Maybe your tank fudges the engage in the heat of the moment because they feel stressed to make an engage and then your team dies 5v4 and you hard lose multiple objectives.
and every time he ults, your team doesn't know that this is the one time he is ulting to 5v5 with his team. Regardless of his score, unless you manage to one-shot him before he hits your team, Sion's ult is an extremely effective engage, or at least a zoning ability, if your team dodges it completely.
and on the other side of it, Sion is quite literally inting. If the enemy laner is a snowballing champion, or if the enemy team has a burst mage with Mejai's, Sion will lose the game for you solo. Syndra, for example, with an early stacked Mejai's, can Q -> WQE your squishies for a one-shot.
It's not unbeatable. I wouldn't even say it's successful more often than not, even in solo queue. But it feels awful to play against or even to have it on your own team. It was never intended that a champion ignore [ A ) Enemy champions, B ) Enemy tower damage C ) His own minion wave position relative to enemy towers D) HIS TEAM ] as a strategy. This strategy should probably go away for game health, but I don't think they need to do anything directly to remove it. I think the upcoming indirect changes Riot has planned for the game will remove it.
SithesisLord2 votesThey are making changes to kill inting Sion though. It's all of their Dev posts regarding pre-season turret changes.

Reminds me of the time Blizzard buffed town guards in WoW destroying PVP village raids.
And then nerfed Kazzaks aggro range so you could no longer kite him to stormwind :S
Tbh this sucks. It's not like a bug that resets karthus's ultimate. And you don't see it used at worlds.
Why is this community so hell bent on stuff like this? I completely understand the hate against oppressively overloaded champs but simple tactile choices that bend the rules but don't break them? Farcicle.
WoW died tuning to casuals. Just throwing that out here.
SithesisLord1 votesI don´t even mind inting Sion. I just kill the strat on champ select by picking Kench into him.

Wanna hear something funny? This same community used to cry about the lack of diverstiy. And now when new strats comes out, people are crying for nerfs. Some1 cried for nerfs because they got shit on by tank Brand on top xD Today I saw a post about tank Viktor on top and ofc it was 'NERF THIS RITO REEE' type of post And don't forget about the old spice- tank Karma nerf posts xDDDDDDD
Edit: wasn't Kazzak kiting to SW just a bug on his aggro range? I don't think it was intended.
