good guide.. i'd like to point out though the early all in and tower dive at level 6.. i believe that should be changed because you can't actually go all in with level 1 shield. one normal attack of all heroes, if not most, will destroy the shield. and say you're up against the king of top, jax, it might end up all in suicide. also, with the runes you chose, if i choose gangplank, i will always bully you because i know you don't have the armor. you might want to update some stuff here. overall, again, good guide. hope this helps
You know what man you are right. I haven't really been in the country (US) for nearly the whole summer. This all in thing was added when the tower dive Mundo at level 6 with jungle thing was still popular. To all and not just you, I will not be updating this guide anymore due to school and hw. I was diamond 1 S3 BUT I have not played ranked ever since. League has been a chill game. I didn't expect this guide to get so popular. I don't think I will be coming back to league. So if anyone wants this guide to maintain just pm and I will give you my account information so you can edit it. I'm sorry for the long delay and for not answering your questions. After spending so much time writing this guide I have decided that league is too big of a time consumer. I've been playing since s2 and I just can't continue to put hours in this game. If anything go play Dota 2. To anyone reading this, please take my advice and go on vacation to get away from league and try to come back from the vacation having stopped league. I have retired my league days and I say good bye to you all.
there is no proof that you are in Diamond I either.
I think having percent health seals is better than having the seals of health. Because they stem off of Hp, your health is increased more and more towards late game, and can help you through that annoying mid game safely.
At level 1 u only get 32hp from those seals. Mid game you get about 100hp. Late game u only get mostly 180hp with like 4k hp. He per level gets you 200 some he guaranteed. So I guess yes health seals are better in the extreme late game, but I can reality, only a few games make it past 70 minutes. Don't spend you money on percent health just get flat for early or per level for mid and late.
I don't have my computer here sorry
Have you watched any games by HUSKSUPPE (EUW)? He's the best AD sion player in the world according to lolskill. I've been trying to watch his games, but never seem to be able to catch him when he's on. One thing that he does differently is that he builds merc treads almost every game for the tenacity, and also gets the 15% tenacity in his masteries. It really helps in team fights, since you need to always be autoattacking.
On that note, one thing I noticed both playing and watching Diamond players play AD sion is that ignite tends to destroy him. The 50% healing reduction makes him so much easier to kill, since he can't lifesteal enough (both in lane and in teamfights). I'm considering running cleanse more often, both to deal with ignite, but also, coupled with 50% innate tenacity, to make CC for the next 3 seconds completely useless. What do you think?
Hey thanks for the thoughtful comment,
I wish I had a computer next to me to further test the cleanse. I got 256kb/sec out here and I have not been able to reply to your guys questions. I'm writing this on my phone so excuse the language and grammar.
In the importance, I would like to admit that I do use those mastery pages but I have not changed the guide due to a hectic schedule. I also do use cleanse and have had success with it. I am sorry to all that I have not changed the main spell to cleanse. But I will be back.
However since sion rehaul is announced, I do not think investing a months worth of remaking to this guide is practical. I will however strongly consider making this guide updated for the new sion. I think your ideas are good and keep playing that sion. Thanks for the feedback and sorry for the misunderstanding.

Very good, in depth guide. Thing is with sion, is that there is so many different ways to build him its never a blanket build. I like how your guide covers that. I probably have over 1000 ranked games as sion, mainly cause I just enjoy to play him. Mostly as ap, but been swaying over to AD builds this season. One thing I will add is that I've found dorans ring to be a pretty op start. Dorans ring, two health pots, and w for first spell. You still hit pretty hard in early trades, but this way you can also absorb damage and get maybe two AA's off and the shield burst. E level two and if I dont see my jungler ganking I wont get q until level 5. This way I can pretty much keep shield up full time and CS in peace. And its always funny when you both come back to lane after your first buy and the other guy has a null mantle.
THanks man for the feedback.
Yeah I used to actually have Doran's Ring as a viable start, I almost always built it core. But I recently took it out. Maybe I should add it because i've heard a lot of good things bout it.
