Sion's abilities

Passive, spells and ultimate

Glory in Death (P)

After being killed, Sion will temporarily reanimate with rapidly decaying Health. His attacks become very rapid, heal him, and deal bonus damage based on his target's maximum Health.

Playing as Lissandra

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Poke through a minion

    Cast Ice Shard (Q) through a minion: the spear shatters on it, and its shards damage and slow the champion behind.

  2. Flank with your claw

    Engage from the flank with Glacial Path (E): recast it to blink to the claw, then root nearby enemies with Ring of Frost (W).

  3. Ult yourself if you get focused

    If you're getting focused, cast Frozen Tomb (R) on yourself: you become untargetable for a moment, heal based on your missing health, and the ice slows enemies around you.

  4. Fight where they fall

    Stay in the heart of teamfights: Iceborn Subjugation (passive) turns an enemy champion who dies near you into a Frozen Thrall, which slows, then explodes.

Playing against Sion

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Leave his Smash area

    Leave the area while he charges Decimating Smash (Q): past 1 second of charge, the hit applies a knock-up and a stun, for up to 2.25 seconds.

  2. Break his shield

    Break the Soul Furnace (W) shield before he detonates it: he can only trigger it if the shield still holds.

  3. Dodge his charge sideways

    Step to the side of Unstoppable Onslaught (R): he turns poorly once it's launched, and his charge stops on the first champion hit.

  4. Back off when he comes back to life

    Back off as soon as he dies: during Glory in Death (passive), his autos are much faster and deal damage based on your max health, but his health drains fast.
