No words needed. But im gona throw few in anyway. 4 9 Sion fighting kled, with "Most overpowered rune", won the duel. Let me repeat this sentence. A DUELIST CHAMPION WITH LITTLE TO NO UTILITY LOST A DUEL TO TEAMFIGHT SCALLING CHAMPION even though he had black cleaver and conqueror. During this fight Kled remounted which means he got 2272 heal during the fight. Hashinshin missed SEVERAL knockups, you know, SIONS MOST SIGNIFICANT ABILITY, and he still walked away with 60% mana left and had he have warmogs, he would be back in the game, in teamfights in matter of seconds. What is Kled supposed to do now? Teamfight? Sion is better. Splitpush? SION IS BETTER. Considering how interesting it was to watch, it fucking wasnt. Its been minute long fight of procing grasp of undying and activating shield. Those who say Riven is faceroll, this isnt any different. Riven at very least has to faceroll faster. Around 30 times faster. This very thing is why tank meta will never return. Noone will want to :

  1. Play this, tank pick rates and one tricking rates are abysmal compared to even supports, despite their performance even during tank meta.
  2. Play against this, there is a reason why top lane was least picked role during tank meta.
  3. Watch this. Riot wants to make this game great watching experience. This aint it.

>be behind >fight hyperscaling tank with 4.2k hp and grasp healing, along 5 armor items to death, no fleeing! >die >pikachu.jpeg

This is a super long fight, tanks are supposed to overlast stuff, if anything, this is one of the FEW times that's happening and aren't getting 1shot over conq and lethality passives.

You think kled gives no utility? Look at his ult

Hash only missed the knockups when kled abused his mobility (e) to dodge, mobility can help in combat but a lot of kleds power goes to being able to stick to his target, not dodging reliably.

Kled would actually perform okay in a teamfight since he can reach backline champs and cause havoc, sion only has his ult which is telegraphic and should easily be stopped by a frontline champ in worst case scenario. Its all a matter of how good sions team is at helping him get his q off and how good kleds team is at avoiding sion and killing someone more important.

If you look at the clip, most of the damage sion is taking is true damage, which goes to show the ridiculousness of this keystone. I have had duels where 80% of the damage dealt to me was true damage.
