Sion relies on an old and now flawed tactic

He either goes pure burst or pure AA

Honestly he is easily countered in both. Hybrid just does terrible damage in general.

For pure AP, a banshees will cancel out half his combo. He doesn''t have the cds like most other ap casters to do the damage throughout the fight. Also he is melee making it much harder.

For Pure AD. He relies on purely AAing to deal damage. Also he has to build relatively glass to deal his damage. PD, IE, and Ravenous is a must if he wants to make a difference in end game. Only if he gets that far anyways. He has no gapclosers, and no sticking power other than that 1 Q. Most adcs have an escape that make Sion's short range exploitable to the max.

With attackspeed reducers and heal reducers running abundant now, Sion gets weaker and weaker.

Nunu's slow, Darius's slow, Nasus's slow, executioners and morello's. Lee sin's W (big one here)

And just general peeling just halt his damage output.

Armour reduces his heal.

He just feels too clunky
