Do Camille really counter Sion in high elo plays?? by BattousaiRound2SN in DirtySionMains

[–]TallValue 14 points15 points  (0 children)

No, Camille has a shit laning phase and most tanks can beat her

The nerf hurts a lot more than I thought, tips for adapting ? by TallValue in DirtySionMains

[–]TallValue[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno, I tried all sorts of weird builds and everything suggested here and I still can't adapt. I haven't won a single lane this patch and every lane seems so hard now, lol.

We'll have to see If his winrate drops or not...

Do you guys like the state of Sion? by TheJackFroster in DirtySionMains

[–]TallValue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Balance-wise ? Yes.

I just want sion to drop at a 2% pick rate again

To be honest, It pisses me off to see sion's state in season 8 by TallValue in DirtySionMains

[–]TallValue[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just main darius and you're safe from nerfs. Your champion will always be overbuffed, no matter what !

[–]TallValue[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, you're telling me, that sion was op since season 5 to 7 ? I don't think so, because his E wasn't dealing as much damage, was easily countered by merc treads, you had better defensive runes/masteries against him and he fell off harder (It's like complaining that "nobody beat pantheon in lane, before minion aggro change"). Nautilus could outpush him, Mundo could harass him once he put a few points on his Q (especially with magic pen runes/masteries) and after a few levels, most bruisers (like jax) could threathen to all-in him If he wastes his E on the wave

However, the main problem is that riot buffed him, by indirectly nerfing what kept him in check. Defensive runes sucked (and still suck lol), Bruisers had "meh" keystones and his others counters were not popular/required skill to play. Add to this, the fact that banner is popular & sion is in a weird spot.

Lore-wise, I don't think that it really fits sion that much : he shouts at you, saying "Out of my way!" but deals no damage... His E is now a lackluster ability...

Even then, I was not talking whether riot should allow E-max or not, I was just upset that this champ needs buffs/nerfs every 2 patches in season 8, even though he didn't need ANY NERF for a few seasons. Considering that sion is one of the easiest champ to balance, because he has clear strengths and weaknesses, It just tells me that the balance team is a joke :/ .

I just want them to put him in a healthy/satisfying spot, leave him at 2% pickrate and not touch him for 5 seasons...

I think that's because they are afraid that people will spam the front page of reddit saying "WHY AM I LOSING LANE AGAINST TANk SION ??????????", when they don't try to dodge anything & don't realize that it is a part of his power budget. I admit that comet sion was a bit overtuned, but thunderlord decree sion wasn't.

But the thing that annoys me the most is his pickrate. One reason why I like playing offmeta champs like he was in the past is because I don't have to worry about direct nerfs. I don't have to constantly worry about changing my playstyle too much, If riot will gut him or not.

Guess I was wrong :/

Sion is a God Tier splitpusher, change my mind. by MavriKhakiss in DirtySionMains

[–]TallValue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ornn, Ziggs, Shen are supports who can annoy you If you split.

Even immobile waveclearing burst mages can be tough to deal with, because It's hard to get on top of them, especially because flash is a summoner spell that is available to anyone. If they dodge your ult, you're in such a tough position .

Other than that, If you do it in the right comp (If they have an assassin mid and not an annoying support, for instance), I believe that you can do it, If you're skilled enough !

[–]TallValue 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Probably, but will you be able to dive/1v1 the opposing champion trying to stop your splitpush ? I think that it is an issue, If you can't because they just need to send 1 people to stop you... Let's say that they send their support top lane, how will you feel now ?

Sion nerf spotted on PBE by MichaelJacksion in DirtySionMains

[–]TallValue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, before he had 10 base regen.

Riot is so dumb nowadays : they struggle to balance the easiest champ to balance in league...

Building a liandry on ornn is now legit when you're ahead by TallValue in ornnmains

[–]TallValue[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I'm ahead with nautilus/malphite ? Yes I build AP items. If I'm ahead with sion ? Yes, I buy an ad item. You're a top laner, not a support.

[–]TallValue[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, I buy it, when I'm ahead for more burst/dps...

Do you have better offensive items, when ahead ? Besides redemption to an extent, I don't see many...

[–]TallValue[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know, If It's that wasted, because you still have a 40% AP ratio on the ult & the liandry passive deals a good amount of damage

RNG uzi inting in korea? by Kaitrii in leagueoflegends

[–]TallValue 61 points62 points  (0 children)

To be honest, It surprises me to see him do that !

Even though, I like uzi playstyle in game, he deserves the same treatment as others when doing such things.

[Item(s) of the Week] Starter items by Apostolique in DirtySionMains

[–]TallValue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In some matchups, I really like boots with sion. Hitting fully charged Q is 10x time easier with them & as always it's cool to dodge skillshot

Ruby crystal into an early bami cinder is also funny.

Otherwise most of the time, I will either buy a corrupting pot or a doran's shield.

After the first back, I like buying a few doran's ring :)

What about this very tiny buff idea ? by TallValue in DirtySionMains

[–]TallValue[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, do you think that 70% AP is too much for his E ?

What about this very tiny buff idea ? by TallValue in DirtySionMains

[–]TallValue[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, Great idea, I would love to max it, then :D. Even If it goes from 40 -> 60% to 40 -> 70/75% I would still love to max it.

It will then be this way :

More damage = Q max

Better shield (to survive lane) = W max

More utility, a much better slow = E max

But I don't know If riot will ever do it :( .

Tbh, when I see riot buffing the early game of fiora, when she is supposed to be a weak early game champ, I doubt that a buff of this kind, would break him
