You've got a point in there somewhere, but it's not as dire for Sion as you make it out to be.

"Jax, Kog'maw, Kayle, and Teemo all outshine him in all aspects of the game, as hybrids."

Jax and Kayle are in the same spot as Sion, awkwardly in between roles or in transition from one rebuild to another. This doesn't stop Kayle and Sion from being popular and successful picks.

I would put the above champions in this order of viability: Kog'Maw, Teemo, Sion, Kayle, Jax. Kog'Maw bot is more routine than Teemo top is more routine than Sion mid and so on. Jax is the one left in the cold right now because most top lanes can outlast him 1v1 and dodge changes are going to rebuild the champ soon (tm) anyway.

Sion's fine as an aggressive AP mid pick (like leblanc) or in the jungle. Donate to the Karma or Eve fund if you need a champion to rescue
