What gives him such good solo numbers? Why doesn't that translate? | ||

As for why Support Sion "works", I think it's more of a gimmick because players are not used to him. He can do a lot of damage essentially for free against unsuspecting players, whether that be a fully charged Q or E poke. He's a tanky beast that is very capable at engaging team fights mid and late game. I think it's easier to harass with Sion than it is to harass a Sion early on in bot lane because he can secure brush control. This obviously doesn't translate well into pro play because no competent bot lane pair are going to stand around to get smashed by a Q randomly. | ||

Botlaners usually don't know how much damage he does at early levels so he can get easy leads. | ||

I'm of the opinion that if Support Sion was more popular (picked more in general), less capable players trying him out and failing, Sion's win rate would drop down to around where Support Naut and Braum are (high teens in ranking). But since Sion is so obscure atm, only players who actually know wtf they're doing will play him and they still maintain their surprise factor. Being a niche pick means general pop won't randomly pick this champion to go out on a test drive in ranked. | ||

Rengar Jungle 11 77 100.00% Can we revert his rework or just remove him from the game? He used to be a pubstomp champion too weak to be picked in competitive but now he's too strong both in competitive and in "solo" Q. | ||
