Sion buff proposals

P: Death Surge: ~~50% movement speed for 1.5 seconds, decaying~~ >> 75% movement speed for 3 seconds, decaying to 50% after 1.5 seconds. New effect: Death Surge removes all disables. New effect: Should Sion kill or assist in the kill of an enemy champion while Glory in death is active, Death Surge has it's cooldown refreshed, he is returned to full health, and his HP loss per second is reset.

This passive is meant to put Sion in a Frenzy. As things stand, he could be more accuratley described as stumbling a few more steps before dying. Buffing Death Surge enough to make him difficult to Kite in his final form could help significantly. (Note: the "heal to full health" does not revive Sion, it simply resets him to the way he was when his passive first went off)

E: ~~reduces armor~~ >> reduces armor and magic resist

Yeah, that's it. It makes his shield detonation hit harder and helps him amp up his team a bit.

I think Sion is one of the most balanced champs in the game right now....

he's balanced. but not viable, and his passive is horrible even in a teamfight since you're a tank you wont be dying fast and when you DO die you just can't make use of your passive, the only reason to use sions passive is to farm 1-2 minions or kill the enemy nexus, it's pretty horrible since one slow and you do nothing. i would just make him immune to slows and cc while in ult

Honestly bro, even just a couple of these changes would make him stupidly op... He brings enough power as a living champion and needs absolutely no buffs to his after-death power. He would need compensation nerfs and nobody wants that. In fact you'd be dangerously close to making Sion better as a corpse than as a champion...

Even just that E change is a massive shift in power and they would prolly have to nerf his W to more than make up the damage difference as it would increase the rest of his teams damage in addition...

Sion is debatably the healthiest champion in the game atm as far as Strength vs. Weakness or Power vs. Counter-play goes and I would argue that he simply does not need buffs.
