You should stop comparing it like that... otherwise it just sounds like a fanboy talking.
They both have pros/cons to it, so even if you could compare, there's no way to decide whats better, and sth like "MY Sion Hp beats your Nasus Dmg! BLÄH I win!!!" isnt going to change that...

AD Sion with 300 CS and good items is just as scary and good as Nasus with 300 CS and good items.
They are -completely- different.
Sion can build HARD defensive items, and have an extra free item due to his passive, and generally speaking that's where you sneak in something like an infinity edge. So Sion is an Offtank who would auto attack.
Whereas if Nasus wants HP, he is force to build Warmogg's and hard resistances, and ALL of his damage comes from Q and maybe Trinity Force. Making him ALMOST a physical caster, and an Offtank who gets ALL his real damage from his skills.
Apples and Oranges. Both are very good. Both need massive creep scores to do their job well.

Obviously they both have pros and cons, and I didn't mean to sound like that, but the other posters were pretty much doing that with nasus, and I felt like sion needed to be defended :P
On a general level I agree with duff. Sion is free to build some AD, and Nasus already has damage from his Q.
If we're comparing skills though I'd say
Nasus Q > Sion Q
Nasus W > Sion W
Sion E > Nasus E
Sion R > Nasus R
Neither passive is better, they both suit each other respectively. Nasus needs that lifestal, but it would almost be pointless on Sion
Nasus users are free to play him all they want, I'm not saying he's a bad champ. I just greatly prefer sion now.
This thread was a bit pointless, now that I think about it, but I'm just getting into this group of champions, and was excited with the success I've had as Sion, and wanted to share it :P

I tend to agree that Sion is better than Nasus and Viegar, but I don't build AP Sion sooo o_O
I still say they're too different to compare :P

What happens if hotshotgg plays
Nasus?
1000 extra damage
Siphoning Strike xD.
BTW: My AD-runes help great at early farming with
Siphoning Strike, too. I mean, 100 damage hit at lvl 1 xD.
Earlygame, the combination of
Ionian Boots of Lucidity and
Glacial Shroud give you enough cdr. Later in the game, you should switch out
Ionian Boots of Lucidity for
Mercury's Treads.

Meh all this sion n nasus talk... I'll stick with my rammus >;D btw which runes do you think are best for him.
For Rammus?
Something like ArP reds, armour yellows, MR/level blues. Either health or more armour for quints I guess.
