Part of the awesomeness of Sion's rework is his size. There is no need to shrink him by 5%. He wants to be the biggest.

Sion:

SION IS BIGGEST THERE IS. SION SMASH!

Well sion was a hulk of a human but he isn't like a 9 feet 500 pounds giant freak. Like think of Sion as a Arnold Schwarzenegger in his prime but a little more hulking, so he would be slightly bigger than darius because darius is already Schwarzenegger caliber. But still personaly I would like it the way he is because he is the definition of a juggernaut.

I guess we'll just have to see. A smaller size might be beneficial.

You got downvoted for having a opinion that favored an reasonable approach. silly hooman, thats not what these boards are for. Next time do this; "OMG! As someone who plays a lot of Sion this is a huge nerf!I dont find him as fun to play now because I dont feel as powerful. Riot plz reconsider and keep Sion his original size he feels strong that way."

I see no need for this to be downvoted. it's true. Although Sion is huge, he is not Malphite.

In my opinion, being a little bit smaller will do justice both to him and to the champions who are actually supposed to dwarf him.

As long as he won't be outgrown by someone, who in turn, shouldn't.

Sion, by comparison to Helmet Bro who is estimated to be a standard 6 feet tall, is actually around 7-8 feet tall and bigger than you think. His axe is almost the size of a regular man.

Surely Cho'Gath fully stacked should be comfortably the biggest, followed by Malphite, Zac and Naut.

Actually Naut is also Human sized, in his lore he just got trapped in a scuba suit, so he should be slightly larger than a regular guy but no where as big as everyone wants him to be.

I disagree. When you consider his splash, the cinematic and his title, Titan of the Depths, all figures point to him being utterly massive.

HeadHonchkrow2 votes

What if the Depths are really short so the title just means that he's taller than all others in the depthssss

Attack on Titan With Nautilius playing the role of every Titan and Lobsters playing the role of the humans.

ChewbaccasRear1 votes

True with the splash, and with the cinematic I just decided to ignore its relevance with the lore (but it was badass so like with Movies and Books i just separated them in my head and didn't hold one to the other)

Zair Umbras2 votes

The cinematic where he sends Ahri flying by stomping on the floor as well as his anchor being big enough to squash Jax.... lol.

ChewbaccasRear1 votes

Thats what I didn't get since his lore never said anything about him getting super sized.... (but I loved the cinematic regardless)

Zair Umbras1 votes

His lore states he was dragged down into the depths and corrupted. Size change wouldn't be too surprising when you look at his head, which isn't exactly a diver's helmet, so his suit was changed in some regard.

ChewbaccasRear1 votes

To be honest i just thought it was a different fancy kind of Scuba suit and that he just got consumed by the drarkness, i didn't think anything changed, but i actually has this discussion in another thread and turns out theres a comic that shows the differences, so yea now I'm on the "he should be bigger" side.

On that notion, why does everybody think Nautilus should be the size of a building? He was a man in diving suit. Primitive diving suits, while bulky, aren't the size of a cottage.

I'm honestly confused why they are shrinking him.

Sion needs to stay a big guy. that way when he ganks from a bush it is more likely to make the enemy piss themselves in fear.

In a side note, is anyone else annoyed that item 2138 doesn't substantially increase your size anymore? It was cool being a late game tank and popping one of those to become huge. Now you can't even tell you're any bigger. I bought one a few games ago as Shyvana and I was still smaller than my Vayne .

Maybe Vayne got it too ;)

Where does it say anything like that? Especially anything saying that he's supposed to be bigger than Cho or Malphite...

Crett2 votes

Agree. I woulda liked them making him a little bigger even

They are going to shrink Rumble, who is already the smallest yordle in game... i understand that the robot is big and may be a problem for the gameplay i guess?

But come on! Rumble is smaller than Gnar... who is a 4 years old yordle.

Ralanr1 votes

Is he smaller than Veigar?

Yes, his model is smaller than the model of Veigar... He and Corki are the smallest ones due their machines.

Ralanr4 votes

Veigar should lord over Rumble and rub this in his face.

Blade of Justic2 votes

Actually, he needs to be only slightly bigger than Darius.

There's nothing in his lore or in his character idea that suggests that he should be bigger than Malphite, Cho'Gath and Zac.
