Against ranged mids just max E and poke. Sion has great base regen (highest in game bar passives like Mundo / Garen) and can outlast most APC's thanks to this and his shield.

Also, keep in mind that mid lane is shorter and he lacks escape tools, so it is also easier to survive ganks if you ward.

In mid your second summoner can be much more flexible. Ignite, teleport, ghost, exhaust are all viable depending on the enemy midlaner / team needs, and not taking teleport still allows you map presence because you can reach either lane with your ulti. Sure, not hitting an enemy with it isn't optimal, but a 4v2 in botlane might be saved becuse you ult'd down and still have the armor shredding slow E and threat with Q. Most supports have CC to help land Q, and an E onto any enemy champion will massively boost your team's ADC's dps immensely.

View mid sion like a jungle Panth for his ulti; hitting isn't as important as being there.
