    If you have never played Sion before, don't expect to do great without some practice.

    Get the Sheen, then get some decent AP, then finish the lich bane.

    People who rush lich bane are mornos.

    I think the sheen is better early game, you need the boost to your mana pool.

    Not really after the mana regen changes.

    Honestly, Sion is pretty much Rabadon's + Zhonya's + Abyssal Sceptre and you become an unkiller nuking fuck. Get them in whichever order the direction of the game dictates.

    Also, it's worth noting that you should get Rank 2 Enrage early. It's a 50% bonus to hp gain on last hits during the period where you're getting most of your last hits; your other abilities won't get hit too hard.

    You have to be kidding, Sion has 175 mana base and gets 25 a level. Even with mp/5 yellows, you're going to start with about 16 mana/5 if you spec into support and start with mana regen as an item. You can't sustain the mana that Sion uses without getting a catalyst in the very least.

    Guys, I want to learn AP Sion because my local lan center is holding a LoL tournemnt (don't ask) so I want to be the utmost gayest.

    What build am I suppose to build?

    More info might be more helpful.

    How is the tournament set up? 1v1, 3v3, 5v5. Do you come with your own teams or do they round robin you? Do you declare your champ beforehand and stick with it, or are you able to swap game-by-game?
    EDIT: What's the victory condition. I assume if it's a team game, it's just 'winning'. But if you're doing 1v1 is it first blood or first to down the tower (or either)?



    Because the Summoner Spells and items you get will be drastically different depending on setup. It's the difference between building sheen and going ghost/ignite VS building 13 hp pots and going revive teleport (assuming victory is first tower down).

    You get 15 mp5 with just a Doran's Ring and 3 points in the Utility talent. You should get a whole lot more if you have mp5 yellows.

    By the way, mp5 stands for mana per 5. You don't need a slash after the p.

    Start with a Dorans Ring ...

    I thought you wanted to win the lane?

    EDIT: Also, the MP/5 is supposed to mean per level, not flat.

    It needs more of everything. You can choose DFG, which has decent AP and a fantastic nuke that scales into late-game, or Morello's which has only a slight bit more AP and doesn't scale.

    Hmmmm.

    Going to disagree. Two Dorans rings seems silly, and I think those runes are pretty meh.

    But I will defer, because Sion is not that great of a gamebreaker. Learn XZ then break games.

    How is that different from a sion+<anything with a stun / burst combo> lane? You hit level 4, then the enemies just die.

    I think XZ breaks it harder, I really do.

    A well-farmed XZ wanders through your team as if they're nothing to him. He's like an Akali who doesn't die and stuns the eff out of people.

    Also, she speeds him up so he can run into stun range.

    Incidentally, not saving it's a great build, but it's worth trying Boots of Mobility on Sion once or twice, just for the OH GOD RAMMUS-SPEED SHIELDED SION INCOMING FUCK CAN'T OUTRUN THE STUN effect.
