Mmm, AP Sion and AD Sion both have their benefits.

AP Sion is burstier, AD Sion is tougher.



@Cauch:
I do not recommend taking Lich Bane on AP Sion.




Overall, i used to play AD Sion, but moved to AP Sion after i found the superiority of his skill set scaling with AP.

nonononono. You just need to handle her Spell Shield and focus her like you would Heimerdinger. She's very squishy and relates to damage by being in the back. The Boomerbang was the buff she needed, and she's fine.

Yeah just because sivir is awesome doesn't mean she's OP. she basically has Piltover Peacemaker Q (but 1000x better), a Bouncing Blade W that's 1000x better because it just adds it to your auto attacks, and bounces much much farther, a Banshee's Veil E that needs to be activated at just the right time, and an ultimate that's helpful for running/chasing but otherwise isn't broken at all.

I don't know what kind of point I was trying to make, but unless her counters get nerfed (I'm not sure what her counters are), she's not OP.

hey big surprise we're all opinionated.
( >.>) "AP sion is better" doesn't tell me why AD sion is bad. Honestly, some pros/cons and why AD sion's cons make him bad is what I'm asking for 9_9

Theee crit tank build on sion makes him absurdly op. Go around 2-3 shotting everyone. I've seen many AP sions running around, I haven't seen one really do anything impressive, apart from throw the stun here and there to do that damage and get a kill for the team, AD sion can do that and not be completely useless after his shield and stun.

I feel like AD sion is superior in 3s matchs where you don't need a large amount of farm, AP Sion can farm like a mo-fo in 5s and then come out and tank while blowing up semen in everyones faces.

Pros of running AP Sion:
-Excellent farmer with his W
-All of his spells hit like a truck between levels 4 and 16
-Extra effective health gained from his W
-Strong burst nuker, great at focusing carries down
-Decently strong tower pusher, even if you don't buy Lich Bane
-High health from his creep farm
-Has a much stronger early/mid game than AD
-Soft carry - doesn't rely too much on items

Pros of running AD Sion:
-Can become extremely tanky with Enrage, and can abuse this by buying an Atma's Impaler and occasionally Warmog's
-I-Edge, Atma's, and possibly a Phantom Dancer
-Still retains incredibly strong burst with a Triforce
-Amazing team heals with his ultimate
-One of the strongest 1v1 champions in mid to late-game
-Extremely strong tower pusher
-Able to solo Dragon quite easily
-Hard carry - doesn't rely all that much on skills, but high ranks in Enrage and Cannibalism don't hurt.

TL;DR - AP is stronger early to mid game, but AD wrecks people late-game. AD is a hard carry while AP is a soft carry.


Also when AD Sion gets his hands on a Tiamat he has such crazy shenanigans with his ultimate.

I dont like AP sion for the sheer fact that if a carry hits him two or three times half his damage goes down the drain.

AD/Tanky sion is the best way to go imo. AP sion is too easy to shut down.
