Who Wins
- You lose pre-6 due to Sion's superior base damage and engage threat with Q-E combo.
- Post-6 you win extended 1v1s through R survivability and sustained DPS, but respect his burst potential.
How to Trade
- Focus on short auto-E trades when his Q is down, using W to sustain through his poke.
- Avoid extended trades pre-6 as his base stats and shield from W will win most all-ins.
Wave Control
- Accept being pushed early and focus on last-hitting safely under tower until level 6.
- Once you have R and range, you can start contesting waves and looking for favorable trades.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't greedily walk up for CS when his Q is available, as the knockup into E-auto combo chunks significant health.
- Respect his engage range and play around your minion wave positioning.
