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.

Q (Decimating Smash) charges an AoE knockup — charge longer for more range and damage, but the enemy can walk out of the zone.
R (Unstoppable Onslaught) makes you charge in a line — use it to engage from far away or to roam quickly across the map.
The passive (Glory in Death) revives you in zombie mode after death — auto-attack everything you can before dying for good.
W (Soul Furnace) stacks permanent HP on kills — Sion becomes tankier and tankier with farm.

Playing against Sion
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
His Q charge can be interrupted by CC — stun him during the channel to cancel the knockup.
Sidestep his R (charge): he can't turn easily once he's started.
His zombie passive is slow: simply walk away from him, don't stay in range.
The W shield can be popped before it detonates: burst it quickly to prevent the damage from going off.
