Arrr, reference patch16.20.1

Arrr, strengths and limits

What Sion does well, and what can go wrong

These be kit-level patterns, nay a promise that every course or matchup plays th' same way.

Arrr, good patterns

Arrr, combines damage and durability in committed skirmishes or extended exchanges.
Arrr, creates space through durability, control or a reliable front-line threat.

Arrr, limits to respect

Can be worn down or controlled afore reaching th' range where th' kit be strongest.
Durability does nay make an unsupported engage seaworthy or guarantee enough damage to finish a target.
Basic attacks require belay access, so foe range, slows and displacement can deny a clean trade.

Arrr, riot ally tips

Use these while learning th' champion

Ye only have very slight turning trick during Unstoppable Onslaught, so make sure to use it in straight paths.

Roar of the Slayer be a great setup trick to land a very powerful Decimating Smash.

Th' Soul Furnace buff displays how much shield strength be remaining, use this ship's intelligence to time its explosion perfectly.

Riot foe tips

What an foe be told to watch fer

Even if Sion still hits a Decimating Smash, making him release th' charge earlier reduces its impact.

Use th' time after Sion has died to reposition and prepare fer his return.

Arrr, practical champion reading

Arrr, how to read Sion in a real fight

Use these patterns to ask better questions afore choosing an gear, target or commitment. They describe th' kit, nay a promised result.

Arrr, damage delivery

Arrr, primarily physical pressure

Armour can reduce th' broad physical profile. Separate basic attacks from physical tricks afore relying on an gear passive that only affects attacks.

Arrr, fight rhythm

Track th' shipshape trick cycle

Do nay judge th' champion from one control. Watch which setup, payoff and escape tools be available afore choosing a trade or commitment.

Arrr, range and access

Needs belay access fer basic attacks

Range, slows, displacement and terrain can deny th' clean contact this champion wants. Course th' course in as carefully as th' damage after arrival.

Typical crew job

Arrr, create space and absorb attention

Th' kit be most often most valuable when it controls an entrance, protects a carry or begins a fight crewmates can actually reach. Durability does nay make an isolated engage seaworthy.

Control inspect

Identify th' exact movement restriction

Tenacity can shorten only eligible control. Displacements, airborne effects and repeated slows need their own positioning, blocking or movement captain's answer.

Arrr, protection and sustain

Inspect whether recovery changes th' fight

Anti-heal or anti-shielding be situational. Buy it only when th' effect be materially protecting targets and yer champion can apply th' captain's answer reliably.

Arrr, resource pattern

Arrr, mana and cooldowns both matter

A spell being available does nay mean th' shipshape sequence be sustainable. Watch th' resource bar as well as th' setup and escape cooldowns.

Defensive gear reference

What can help against Sion?

Set sail wit' th' threat that be actually affecting th' clash. These be conditional comparisons, nay an automatic counter loadout.

Pre-battle choices

Arrr, dEFENSIVE BOOTS

Neither pair be automatic

This champion be nay cleanly answered by th' passive on either defensive pair.

Use Plated Steelcaps fer meaningful basic attacks, Mercury's Treads fer magic damage or reducible control, or keep th' loadout's normal Boots.

Arrr, reducible controlDisplacementSlowsArrr, healing or sustainShieldsHull-scaling or true damage

Arrr, pHYSICAL DEFENCE

Arrr, physical defence

Armour · health · role-appropriate defence

Armour can reduce physical damage, but Plated Steelcaps' passive be specific to attacks.

Clash th' gear to attacks, critical strikes or trick burst rather than buying armour from th' label alone.

Arrr, cONTROL AND ONE KEY SPELL

Arrr, control and one key spell

Mercury's Treads · Quicksilver Sash · Banshee's Veil · Edge of Night

Tenacity and a removable-control active can lend a hand agin' th' relevant disabling effects. Airborne and displacement effects be nay solved simply by stacking Tenacity.

Inspect th' present tooltip and whether th' exact effect can be shortened, removed or blocked.

Arrr, rEPEATED SLOWS

Arrr, repeated slows

Boots of Swiftness

Slow resistance can be more booty useful than Tenacity when repeated slowing strength be th' main problem.

It gives no armour or magic resistance, so compare th' rest o' th' opposing crew.

Arrr, mEANINGFUL HEALING

Arrr, meaningful healing

Bramble Vest or Thornmail · Morellonomicon · Mortal Reminder

A role-appropriate Grievous Wounds gear can reduce healing.

Buy it only when healing be materially changing fights and yer champion can apply it reliably.

Arrr, rEPEATED SHIELDS

Arrr, repeated shields

Serpent's Fang

Anti-shielding can matter when repeated shields be protecting fit fer th' captain's eye targets.

Its offensive stats do nay fit every champion; another teammate may apply it more booty efficiently.

Arrr, hEALTH-SCALING OR TRUE DAMAGE

Hull-scaling or true damage

Shields · sustain · positioning · exact resistance check

Raw hull or one resistance may be incomplete agin' percent-hull, lost overboard-hull or true-damage mechanics.

Read th' present trick tooltip afore choosing defence; these mechanics do nay all use th' same counter.

Where Sion fits on Summoner's Rift

Each course be assessed separately. Unfurl a role to reach its queue-specific loadout and matchup preparation.

TopsideArrr, primary role

Old chart, matey. Recommendations await inspection. Sion has an established solo-course course wit' th' income and space needed to trade, manage waves and influence a side course.

Inspect this role Unfurl matchup

JungleUnestablished course

Old chart, matey. Recommendations await inspection. Sion be normally played Top and does nay currently have a reviewed Jungle course. Jungle most often needs repeatable monster clear th' deck, seaworthy pathing and prize control without course income. Treat this as a deliberate experiment, nay a standard recommendation.

Inspect this role

MidshipsUnestablished course

Old chart, matey. Recommendations await inspection. Sion be normally played Top and does nay currently have a reviewed Mid course. Mid most often needs solo-course safe harbour plus wave control, roaming or reliable burst pressure. Treat this as a deliberate experiment, nay a standard recommendation.

BottomsideUnestablished course

Old chart, matey. Recommendations await inspection. Sion be normally played Top and does nay currently have a reviewed Bot course. Bot most often needs dependable duo-course scaling and sustained damage wit' shared early pressure. Treat this as a deliberate experiment, nay a standard recommendation.

Inspect this role

SupportUnestablished course

Old chart, matey. Recommendations await inspection. Sion be normally played Top and does nay currently have a reviewed Support course. Support most often needs useful engage, peel or utility while operating on low doubloons income. Treat this as a deliberate experiment, nay a standard recommendation.
