You think of this item and then a list of champions who could use it, and who could benefit from it more than others. Names pop up like Master YI, Warwick, Xin Zhao, Udyr, and so on. They all have some part of their kit that synergyzes greatly with this item. But one name I don't see is Sion. Specifically AD Sion.

Now first let me say that back in s3 before I started ranked, I played a lot of AD Sion in the jungle. I found that it was actually decent...or rather could be decent, but as one person commented earlier you come into some pitfalls with his build paths. If you want to do damage you have to build damage, and his health stacking passive isn't enough tankiness. You will just be blown up most of the time. If you build bruiser or full tank you will survive, but you just won't do enough damage. One major upside is that his ganks are strong pre 6 (targeted stun op).

I tried feral jungle Sion the other day when I had an idea. I have full tank runes and masteries. Scaling armor and MR (+27 each at lvl 18) with AS ( 15%) and a bit of lifesteal (4.5%). 30 points in the defense tree. Now, you buy that machete and start farming. I mean...gank if you see a really good opportunity....but you want to farm hard. You want to max E first (for stacks) and Q second (more stuns) with 1 point in W for jungle sustain. You want to rush Hydra. That will increase your farming exponentially. After that build 2 AS items or 1 AS item and a LW depending on how the game is going. Boots will be situational...but Zerks, Mercs, or Tabis could all be used. TBH I would probably build Zerks most of the time because it helps your early farming.

In the mid/late game when you press R you will become a god. I got three triple kills in that game. We only lost because I forgot to press R in one teamfight and got exploded before I could do anything.
