The "Undead Juggernaut" is pretty dead right now.

The "Undead Juggernaught" seems to be pretty dead for good these days, from his exciting release that is now used as a reference for all upcoming Reworks such as Taric's he seems to be having a lot of problems keeping up in the Rift. On his release he amazed people of his non-stopping charging ultimate that made him as unique as Poppy's being able to charge from your Nexus almost to the enemies and stunning multiple champions on impact Riot saw his relationship with Cinderhulk and performance vs other Top Laners and nerfed him pretty hard but since all this and beginning of Season 6 he's gotten no compensation to make him a valued pick in the team because there's so many other Juggernauts that do the same and out perform even what he's best at. I was very shocked how Sion was not put into the list of Juggernauts to be tweaked since you know... he's titled JUGGERNAUT in a very low tier winrate and the fact that Mordekaiser didn't make any sense to change in the way Riot did and Skarner has been put back where he was before the update.

I miss old Sion a lot because even though his kit wasn't healthy and didn't have a real defined role at least you could still play him effectively every couple of patches, it's ADC meta right now, Sion should be stomping some goombas but he's taking a long nap still. What do you all think? Am I overreacting? Does any region still perform well with the current Sion? Sion

Sion is still pretty good at least for me,rarely lose lane you have to be really smart to land your ulti though i find it works much better as a secondary form of cc or for spliting up the other team.he gets tons of bonus health if u take the keystone combined with his w passive

his title has nothing to do with the juggernaut update.

its kindof weird that hes not actually one of the champions riot classifies as "juggernauts". hes more of an ad scaling tank. his ult gives him too much mobility and long range initiate to count as a juggernaut like garen, skarner, morde or illaoi.

I don't know what it is with you people and insisting Sion is "weak." Honestly, these boards have no concept of balance, and Sion has been in a balanced state for a long time now, just not in an oppressive state like he was during the cinderhulk meta.

Sions a tank who can engage, dive the back line, and peel effectively. Just because he isn't doing Darius level damage doesn't mean he's, "weak", it just means he has a different set of strengths.

I'm still not sure why so many people think Sion has been gutted and left to rot. The guy has a 52% win-rate right now, that's pretty damn good, not super strong, but not at all weak. Maybe skewed a bit due to small numbers, sure, but why do so many people feel he's useless? He's just difficult to play but brings so much to a team if you use him right.
