Top lane, AD bruiser. Kiting? Not a problem. Just get Boots of Swiftness and Zephyr. The MS and tenacity these give you will make you suddenly a lot harder to kite. These, along with Ravenous Hydra for life steal and better E farming, should be your early priorities. After that, buy resistances: Frozen Heart and Spirit Visage are usually pretty safe bets, and Atma's Impaler has obvious synergy. But, as ever, your purchases should reflect the enemy team comp.

In terms of gameplay, spend the first twenty minutes or so farming. When team fights roll around, your role is to go in, ult, and be generally unkillable while healing your allies. You'll also be a pretty unstoppable pushing machine: late-game Sion can easily solo a turret without any allied minions around, and doesn't even need his ult for it. And of course, the best thing is that, the longer the game goes on, the more unkillable and, if you have Atma's, the more dangerous you get.
