Playing as Sion

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Last-hit everything for max health

    Last-hit minions and monsters for Soul Furnace (W): each kill permanently gives you max health, more on champions, large minions and large monsters.

  2. Slow before your Smash

    Slow your target with Roar of the Slayer (E) before charging Decimating Smash (Q): they're less likely to get out of the area.

  3. Charge your Smash for at least 1 second

    Charge Decimating Smash (Q) for at least 1 second: below that, the hit only slows, and beyond it, the knock-up and stun last longer the more you charge.

  4. Keep hitting after you die

    After you die, hit the nearest champion: during Glory in Death (passive), your autos are much faster, heal you and deal damage based on their max health.

  5. Engage or roam from far away

    Cast Unstoppable Onslaught (R) from far away to engage or roam: unstoppable for 8 seconds, you stun longer and hit harder after a long charge.

Playing against Quinn

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Dodge her Blinding Assault

    Dodge Blinding Assault (Q): it marks you with Harrier, which empowers her next auto on you, and reduces your vision.

  2. Engage after her Vault

    If you can engage, wait until she has used Vault (E): it's her only spell to push you away, on a 12 to 8 second cooldown.

  3. Hit her during her flight

    If Quinn passes within your range during Behind Enemy Lines (R), hit her: one hit makes her lose her speed bonus for a moment.

  4. Ping when she leaves lane

    Ping your team as soon as she leaves lane: after a 2-second channel, Behind Enemy Lines (R) gives her a large speed boost.
