By far the least fun experience I've ever had. Not just in LoL, but in gaming in general, and I've played some shitty games.

Guess he's the new go-to ban for me after today.

It was even more fun last week when his E was virtually impossible to dodge.

when the E was bugged people where right to complain

It's a skill shot you can sidestep them and he uses the minion to boot so you can avoid it by walking perpendicular to the minions It's not that hard

Then again i have mained him since his rework and people are still too dumb to sidestep the skill shot

Eh, I think the Old AP sion was even worse. Sheild, stun nuke walk off, repeate. managed to damage him? R for health. One of my least favorite metas to this day.

When I mentioned sion as shit to play against I got downvotes heavily and laughed at because "just dodge"

Guess they never played against one.

I don't find Sion particularly hard to deal with if I run Second Wind/Revitalize + Doran's shield. The pure sustain you get from that combo takes the edge off his E poke in a big way. Also champs with in-kit sustain or shielding like Vlad, Aatrox, Garen, Urgot, and Nasus are resilient enough to nearly ignore his poke. Hope I was able to help in some way; I know Sion can be really annoying but he isn't unstoppable.

Comet is awfully designed rune, you auto-win lane if you one of champions who use it.

I finally got to fight one again after the e bug fix. Lane is much better. He can still be a pain if you don't dodge enough e's, but atleast you can actually dodge them now. With the bug, it was nearly a free hit every time it felt.

Was he queueing as Support, by any chance? Because Support Sion has been in a pretty absurd spot for quite a while--feels awful to play against. I feel ya, OP.

Went against Comet Sion a while ago as Tahm Kench.

Kind of an easy game to be honest.

RainXBlade3/10/2018, 10:40:47 PM1 votes

Agree with you right there. I always lose against Comet Sion as all he'll need to do is land one E and you can't even trade back because of his innate tankiness and W, and landing his E is hilariously easy.

I'd rather face comet Sion over glacial augment sion personally.

Ever fight a Phase Rush Gnar with Frozen Mallet, Phantom Dancer, Boots of Swiftness, Blade of the Ruined King and Infinity Edge? With 3 Wind drakes and elder drag? You lose your sanity very fast. And this was on pbe so wind drake is even faster...

I laned against one before the patch and it didn't seem so bad. Now granted it was in a normals game and I don't think the player knew how to abuse the strat- they probably ran comet because op.gg/champion.gg recommended it. Personally as a Sion player myself I only trust in grasp of the undying to survive the laning phase since it really helps with trades.

But in terms of existing lane cancer, I've been facing a bunch of people using a new "cancer janna" strategy of max W in lane, then just spam W on people. You move so fast because of the passive movespeed gain that you are untouchable. The W is targeted so it always triggers aery/scorch and you never run out because of manaflow brand. Actual cancer. This is like lane nunu levels of cancer except it's in the botlane.

Also faced a zilean that actually does E>Q>W>Q. Somehow this eats at most like 20% of max mana pool at all stages of the game which feels awful to lane against.

for me it was assassin wukong mid a couple days ago. ive done it many times myself but i havent played against it in ages and when i did it was top lane and wow there was no joke nothing i could do. 100-0 me with an e q rav by stealthing in from the FoW. i myself have done it in aram a lot recently and ive been able to 2 shot people with an e q with nothing but duskblade and rav.
