How to fight Sion?

Seenan··1 votes·1,036 views

I had a game where we were pretty much all AP aside from ADC and he was pretty much a super tank that no one could kill. Do we just draft in the next game? Or win before he gets to this point? I can be as fed as I want, but as an AP champ (lacking BORK and whatnot), Sion seems to not care when he's tanky enough. Pretty much carried the game because he was unkillable.

Sion is one of the few tanks thats severely inhibited by CC (if his ult is down, or dead), also Player made terrain like Anivia wall, trundle pillar, Azir Ult. stuff like that will interrupt his ult. Dashes are nice to avoid him too.

I was an immobile mage and our team was pretty immobile/tankish.

then your tanks must peel. adc should get item 3153 item 3036 if you have a fighter item 3071 to shred armor If you had an immobile mage, i guess you weren't an assassin: item 3116 to annoy him (or zone the enemies behind while trying to stay safe)item 3151 (a must have against tanks, combined with rylai for more effectiveness, item 3135 (amplify the lyandris dot))

For the rest,like how to behave in TFs, git gud (can't give you advice that are not general) because you'll have to see some plays or learn by yourself.

Then it looks like you might have lost at champion select, tough break man.

item 3089 item 3020 item 3165 item 3116 item 1026 this was your build. No shit you couldn't do damage to a sion with 200 MR Why didn't you build any of these item 3151 item 3135 item 3001 ? In fact, no one on your team built any magic pen outside of your sorc boots. You had 2 tanks, full support morgana, and jinx with no runaans, and a item 3087 instead of item 3094

Your team built poorly and lost because of it.

Yeah, I was getting void next. I didn't prioritize it cause he was the only one with MR. Liandry, I thought of but eh. Abyssal might've been an idea since they had 2-3 magic damagers, but Abyssal don't shred MR anymore either way. Sion was their only 'threat' and that's cause no one among our team was a champ that can deal with 'em/didn't itemize for it.

Sounds more like a bad team comp than sion being too strong.

No BotRK, sure.

Have you ever heard of Liandry's Torment?

well if your entire team was AP except your marksman that's the problem. since sion is able to gain free hp all he had to do was wait until your marksman was down and then run in with a bunch of magic resist damage items.
