Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior range and poke with Q in cannon form, but must respect Sion's all-in potential if he lands E into Q combo.
- Post-6 you maintain the advantage through mobility and burst, but Sion's R gives him engage tools that can catch you if positioned poorly.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern involves Q poke in cannon form, then switching to hammer form for W auto-reset and E knockback when Sion tries to engage.
- Always look to disengage after your hammer combo rather than extended trades where Sion's W shield and sustain favor him.
Wave Control
- You want to maintain a slow push or freeze near your side to deny Sion farm while staying safe from ganks.
- Avoid hard shoving unless you can recall, as Sion can easily set up ganks with his E slow and Q knockup when you're overextended.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never stay in hammer form when Sion has E available, as getting slowed makes you vulnerable to his full combo.
- Don't underestimate Sion's damage potential - his W shield gives deceptive trading power and his passive can still kill you even after you've won the fight.
