I've been playing a lot of sion top in ranked lately, and I feel he's really underrated. Admittedly, he can be pushed around by lane bullies early game, but if you manage to grab a lane against someone like olaf or aatrox, it often seems pretty easy. I like to splitpush a lot with him, to stack his e, and if you take mobi boots it's a lot safer to do this. I usually rush BotRK, which synergises with his ult, unfortunately his base AS doesn't really complement it, but it still works. I then go PD, (You can take Shiv if you're really short on gold, but you really need the crit on PD), IE, and put boots in somewhere, probably after bilgewater on first back or after you've finished your Bork depending on who you're laning against, and your gold situation. After all those items, I generally take atmas and spirit visage for the resistances. People say Atma's is generally quite worthless apart from on health stackers, but he loves all the stats. The crit takes his crit chance to 70%, the armour is great, and you get free health, and because of the free health, free ad. Spirit visage is obvious, health is nice for Atma's, need the MR and then healing is insane with your ult. Overall you're pretty unkillable, while still dishing out insane dmg with crits on your e.
