In a 40-minute game with consistent champion participation: approximately 20 champion takedowns (\u00d715 HP) + 200 large monster\/minion kills (\u00d715 HP) = 3000+ bonus HP from W passive alone, adding to his 2365 base max HP for a potential total exceeding 5000 HP before any items. <strong>Glory in Death<\/strong> creates the second defining characteristic: Sion is literally unkillable in the conventional sense \u2013 he revives at full HP and must be killed a second time. In the 6\u201310 seconds Sion&#8217;s Glory in Death form lasts, he can deal significant damage, disrupt teamfights, or reach the backline position he missed in his initial approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sion, the Undead Juggernaut | Login Screen - League of Legends\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vZ9nyZTvRwY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\ud83d\udcca Base Statistics<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Statistic<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Base Value<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Max Value (lvl 20)<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>HP<\/td><td>655<\/td><td>2365.86<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Mana (MP)<\/td><td>400<\/td><td>1422.58<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>HP5<\/td><td>9<\/td><td>24.73<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>MP5<\/td><td>8<\/td><td>19.8<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Armor (AR)<\/td><td>36<\/td><td>118.59<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Attack Damage (AD)<\/td><td>68<\/td><td>146.66<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Magic Resist (MR)<\/td><td>32<\/td><td>72.31<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Movement Speed (MS)<\/td><td>345<\/td><td>345 + R charge ramp<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Attack Range<\/td><td>175 (Melee, above average)<\/td><td>175 (fixed)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Base AS<\/td><td>0.679<\/td><td>Windup%: 24.909%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>AS Ratio<\/td><td>N\/A<\/td><td>Bonus AS: 0\u201325.56%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Crit.

This is the same range as champions like Darius and Mordekaiser, and significantly longer than Sett or Garen.

In combat where the target can interrupt the charge (CC, dash away), releasing Q <strong>as close to 1 second as possible while ensuring contact<\/strong> provides the minimum CC output.

Total approximate passive accumulation: <strong>2575 additional HP<\/strong> over a full game without items.

The 525 radius is substantial \u2013 approximately the range of a standard melee auto-attack burst zone. The recast is best timed after E&#8217;s 25% armor reduction has been applied to the enemy group: armor reduction doesn&#8217;t affect magic damage directly, but W&#8217;s recast is magic damage that bypasses armor entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u26a0\ufe0f W Recast Timing Window: <\/strong>The shield must still be active 3 seconds after the initial W cast for the recast to be available.

Against targets who run in straight lines away from Sion, 950 MS catches anything in the game \u2013 no champion base MS exceeds 355, making the math a complete mismatch at max charge speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\ud83d\udca1 Stun Duration vs Channel Time: <\/strong>The slam stun scales from 0.25 to 1.75 seconds based on channel time. To achieve the maximum 1.75-second stun, Sion must charge for the full 8 seconds at maximum speed before hitting the target. In practice, most successful R engages hit the target at 2\u20134 seconds of channel (650\u2013850 MS), producing <strong>0.75\u20131.25 second stuns<\/strong>. The full 1.75-second stun is nearly exclusively achievable in cross-map charges where the distance requires the full 8 seconds to close. For standard engages, plan around 1-second stun duration rather than the theoretical maximum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\ud83d\udca1 Terrain Wall Angle Trick: <\/strong>Intentionally steering Unstoppable Onslaught at a slight angle into a terrain wall can be used to <strong>aim the slam in a specific direction<\/strong>. When Sion collides with terrain, the 0.5-second self-stun is applied but the slam still impacts enemies around the collision point. Near thin jungle walls, Sion can slam an enemy group by hitting the wall adjacent to them. The terrain collision stun on Sion is <strong>a known acceptable cost<\/strong> in some situations where the slam position against the wall is more valuable than the continued charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u26a0\ufe0f Self-Stun on Terrain: <\/strong>Hitting terrain (walls, structures) during Unstoppable Onslaught stuns Sion for 0.5 seconds. In the jungle or near dragon\/baron pit, unexpected terrain angles can create accidental self-stuns. <strong>Aim R in open lanes or toward wide corridors<\/strong> when possible. The steer speed (8.3\u00b0\/s) provides limited course correction \u2013 R committed in the wrong direction is difficult to redirect quickly enough to avoid walls in tight jungle paths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u26a1 Glory in Death \u2013 Tactical Usage Guide<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Scenario<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Glory in Death Strategy<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Teamfight engage<\/td><td>Engage normally, die in frontline \u2192 Glory in Death with full HP + 1.75 AS to continue fighting<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Assassin dive on Sion<\/td><td>Assassin bursts Sion \u2192 Glory in Death \u2192 100% life steal + 10% max-HP on-hit kills the assassin who committed<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Failed R engage<\/td><td>R into wrong target or terrain \u2192 death \u2192 Death Surge toward backline target missed by R<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Baron\/Dragon smite race<\/td><td>Sion can enter Glory in Death at objective and continue attacking it for 6\u201310 seconds<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Backdoor pressure<\/td><td>Sion at tower (40% structure damage in Glory in Death)&nbsp; \u2013 limited but provides additional hits<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Anti-dive tower fight<\/td><td>Sion under tower \u2192 takes lethal damage \u2192 Glory in Death with 100% life steal survives the dive<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\ud83c\udfaf Strategies and Gameplay Tips<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Early Game (Levels 1\u20136)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Soul Furnace Kill Priority: <\/strong>Every large minion kill (15 HP) and champion takedown (15 HP) compounds over the game. At level 1\u20136, prioritize <strong>last-hitting large minions<\/strong> (cannon minions, catapult minions) since they grant 15 HP each. In the jungle, every large monster (Blue\/Red buff, gromp, dragon, baron) grants 15 HP. In a standard laning phase, 2 cannon minions per wave + large monster kills add 30\u201375 HP every few minutes <strong>permanently beyond any item upgrade<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Q Short-Charge Trading: <\/strong>In early lane, 1-second Q charges are safer than 2-second attempts. The 1-second charge produces 0.5-second knock-up + 1.25-second stun with significantly less exposure time during the wind-up. Against ranged opponents who attack during the charge animation, <strong>toggle W immediately before Q charge<\/strong> \u2013 W&#8217;s shield absorbs poke damage during the 1-second charge window. W active + 1-second Q release is the standard early trade pattern.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>E Minion Poke at Level 3: <\/strong>At level 3 with E unlocked, the minion knockback poke (2150 effective range) creates ranged pressure that most melee top laners cannot respond to. Fire E through the minion wave toward the enemy laner repeatedly. Each hit applies 25% armor reduction \u2013 if the armor reduction overlaps with the next trade (4-second duration), Sion&#8217;s Q physical damage during the stun deals <strong>approximately 20% more damage against the armor-reduced target<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Mid Game (Levels 7\u201313)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Unstoppable Onslaught Across the Map: <\/strong>At rank 1, R costs 140 seconds \u2013 one of the longest ultimate cooldowns in the game. Each R use must deliver significant value. The <strong>cross-map R from top lane into a bot lane fight<\/strong> is Sion&#8217;s highest-value R usage: build charge for 4\u20136 seconds in open terrain, arrive at the enemy cluster at 800\u2013950 MS for a 1\u20131.5 second stun slam. The enemy has <strong>10\u201312 seconds to react<\/strong> from the R activation alert \u2013 coordinating with the team to engage when R is mid-flight creates a simultaneous pressure scenario.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>W Recast Timing in Teamfights: <\/strong>Cast W at engage initiation \u2192 wait 3 seconds while tanking hits (shield absorbs damage) \u2192 recast W for 14% max-HP AoE burst to all nearby enemies. The 3-second window aligns with Q&#8217;s charge-and-land timing: W cast \u2192 R arrive \u2192 Q charge 2 seconds \u2192 Q land stun \u2192 W recast during the 2.25-second stun. The enemy cluster is stationary during Q&#8217;s full stun, maximizing W recast&#8217;s 525-radius AoE coverage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>E Setup for Q Combo: <\/strong>Roar of the Slayer&#8217;s 25% armor reduction lasts 4 seconds. The optimal sequence: E hit (armor reduction applied) \u2192 Q charge 2 seconds (armor reduction still active) \u2192 Q slam with stun (physical damage amplified 20% from armor reduction). E then Q requires the E to hit the same target as Q \u2013 use E as an approach ability to slow the enemy into Q range, then begin charging Q immediately after E lands.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Late Game (Level 14+)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Glory in Death in Late Teamfights: <\/strong>In late-game teamfights, Sion&#8217;s death is not a loss state \u2013 it is a <strong>transition into a second combat form<\/strong>. A Sion who dies at the center of the enemy team enters Glory in Death at 5000+ HP with 1.75 AS and 100% life steal. The enemy team must immediately pivot from fighting the rest of Sion&#8217;s team to eliminating the Glory in Death form, or face 10% max-HP on-hit autos against their highest-HP targets. The optimal late-game Sion play is <strong>dying in the middle of the enemy cluster intentionally<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Soul Furnace HP Total at 40 Minutes: <\/strong>A fully farmed Sion at 40 minutes can realistically achieve 2500+ bonus HP from W passive stacking, 3000+ HP from items (Warmog&#8217;s, Heartsteel), plus base 2365 HP = <strong>potentially 7000\u20138000 total HP<\/strong>. W&#8217;s 16% max-HP shield is then 1120\u20131280 HP per cast. W recast&#8217;s 14% max-HP damage deals 980\u20131120 AoE magic damage. Glory in Death revives at 7000\u20138000 HP. <strong>Sion&#8217;s late-game stats scale harder than any other champion in the game<\/strong> through this combination.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>R as Teamfight Initiator, Not Solo Engage: <\/strong>Unstoppable Onslaught&#8217;s 60-second cooldown at rank 3 means it can be used every meaningful teamfight. The R alarm sound is well-known to experienced players \u2013 <strong>enemies begin dispersing when they hear it<\/strong>. Use R toward the position the enemy carries are <strong>retreating to<\/strong>, not where they currently are. The 8-second charge duration allows Sion to correct course toward the retreating target&#8217;s new position. Coordinate with the team to commit engage as soon as R is activated so the enemy team faces a dilemma: focus Sion (who will just gloriously revive) or flee into the path of the incoming charge.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u2694\ufe0f Core Combo Guide<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Standard All-In: <\/strong>E (slow + 25% armor reduction on target) \u2192 Q charge (during E slow, target cannot close gap) \u2192 Q release at 1\u20132 seconds (knock-up + stun) \u2192 W cast during Q (shield up during stun follow-up) \u2192 autos during stun \u2192 W recast after 3 seconds (14% max-HP AoE blast)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cross-Map R Engage: <\/strong>R toward enemy cluster (charge 4\u20136 seconds, 800\u2013950 MS impact) \u2192 slam stun (0.75\u20131.5 seconds) \u2192 E immediately after slam (25% armor reduction, slow to prevent escape) \u2192 Q charge 1\u20132 seconds \u2192 Q release stun \u2192 W recast during Q stun<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Anti-Dive Response: <\/strong>W cast (shield absorbs initial burst) \u2192 E on approaching assassin (slow + armor reduction) \u2192 Q release stun \u2192 autos during stun \u2192 if Sion reaches 0 HP: Glory in Death activates \u2192 Death Surge toward assassin \u2192 100% life steal + 10% max-HP autos<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>W Max-HP Burst Setup: <\/strong>W cast \u2192 Q charge 2 full seconds \u2192 Q release stun (2.25 seconds) \u2192 W recast during stun (enemies cannot dodge 525-radius AoE while stunned) \u2192 E follow-up for armor reduction on recovering targets \u2192 autos<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u274c Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Releasing Q Under 1 Second: <\/strong>Decimating Smash under 1 second of charge produces only a 0.25-second slow \u2013 minimal CC value. In trades where Sion releases Q early from pressure, the 10-second cooldown is spent for a slow rather than a stun. <strong>Hold Q for at least 1 second minimum<\/strong> in every combat situation. If the target is about to escape the charge radius, release at 1 second for the minimum CC rather than releasing early for the non-CC version.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Forgetting W Passive During Farming: <\/strong>Soul Furnace&#8217;s passive HP accumulation is permanent and irreversible. Every last-hit, every assist, every large monster kill during the entire game is <strong>4 or 15 permanent HP<\/strong>. Players who ignore W passive in lane (farming efficiently) and jungle participation miss hundreds of HP over a game. <strong>Actively seek cannon minion last hits and large jungle monster participation<\/strong> specifically because they grant 15 HP instead of 4.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>R Into Walls Without Intent: <\/strong>Unstoppable Onslaught&#8217;s 8.3\u00b0\/s steer is minimal. Once Sion is 1\u20132 seconds into the charge heading toward a terrain wall, course correction cannot prevent the collision. The 0.5-second self-stun from terrain is often the difference between winning or losing the engage. <strong>Aim R in open terrain<\/strong> and accept that steering toward a wall is rarely correctable during the charge.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>W Recast Before 3 Seconds: <\/strong>W&#8217;s recast is only available 3 seconds after the initial shield cast \u2013 if the shield breaks before 3 seconds, no recast. Conversely, if Sion presses W recast at exactly 3 seconds but the shield was broken at 2.9 seconds, the recast is unavailable. <strong>Track the shield health bar<\/strong> \u2013 if the shield is about to break before 3 seconds and Sion needs the recast, do not engage into heavy burst damage immediately after W cast.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Not Utilising Glory in Death: <\/strong>The single most common Sion player mistake at lower levels is <strong>not pressing anything during Glory in Death<\/strong>. Upon entering Glory in Death, the reflex to stop playing (because the champion died) wastes 6\u201310 seconds of 1.75 AS + 100% life steal + 10% max-HP on-hit. Immediately upon entering Glory in Death: press any ability key for Death Surge (MS toward nearest priority target) and begin auto-attacking immediately.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u2699\ufe0f Recommended Build and Itemization<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Core Items<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/magicstark.cz\/wiki\/heartsteel\/\">Heartsteel<\/a>: <\/strong>The highest HP-scaling item available, designed specifically for champions with high base HP. Each Heartsteel proc deals bonus damage based on the target&#8217;s max HP and permanently increases Sion&#8217;s HP. Heartsteel stacks compound with W&#8217;s passive HP accumulation: Heartsteel procs add HP, which increases W&#8217;s 16% shield strength, which absorbs more damage, which enables more Heartsteel procs. Effective Sion HP at full Heartsteel + W passive: routinely exceeds 8000 HP.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/magicstark.cz\/wiki\/warmogs-armor\/\">Warmog&#8217;s Armor<\/a>: <\/strong>Maximum raw HP for immediate impact. Every 100 HP from Warmog&#8217;s adds 16 HP to W&#8217;s shield strength (16% scaling) and 14 HP to W recast damage per target. Warmog&#8217;s passive HP regen enables sustained in-lane durability that allows continued farming for W passive stacks between fights without recalling.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/magicstark.cz\/wiki\/sunfire-aegis\/\">Sunfire Aegis<\/a>: <\/strong>HP + armor + Immolate passive damage. In Sion&#8217;s standard frontline engagement position (inside the enemy cluster during Q stun + W recast window), Immolate ticks on every enemy in range simultaneously. The HP amplifies W passive value. Sunfire also works in Glory in Death form \u2013 the Immolate continues ticking while Sion auto-attacks in the revived state.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Situational Items<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/magicstark.cz\/wiki\/gargoyle-stoneplate\/\">Gargoyle Stoneplate<\/a>: <\/strong>Active HP amplification when attacked by 3+ champions. Sion&#8217;s role as the primary frontline target in teamfights means being hit by 3+ champions is standard, triggering Stoneplate&#8217;s resistance amplification. The Crystallize active gives a significant HP surge during the most dangerous moments. Effective against physical and magic split damage where both resistance types are needed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/magicstark.cz\/wiki\/jaksho-the-protean\/\">Jak&#8217;Sho, The Protean<\/a>: <\/strong>Resistance stacking per second in combat. Sion&#8217;s extended fight windows (initial form + Glory in Death) mean fights naturally last long enough for Jak&#8217;Sho to reach high stack counts. The combined resistances at peak Jak&#8217;Sho + Sion&#8217;s base scaling create effective HP numbers significantly higher than raw HP suggests.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/magicstark.cz\/wiki\/thornmail\/\">Thornmail<\/a>: <\/strong>Against life-steal-heavy compositions (Aatrox, Samira, Draven). The Grievous Wounds applied to attackers converts their incoming physical damage into healing reduction on themselves. In Glory in Death form with 100% life steal, Thornmail is not as relevant since Sion himself doesn&#8217;t rely on healing during the form \u2013 apply Thornmail to reduce the effectiveness of the enemies who burst Sion before Glory in Death triggers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u2694\ufe0f Counter Picks &amp; Matchups<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u2705 Sion Counters<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>1. <a href=\"https:\/\/magicstark.cz\/wiki\/malphite-shard-of-the-monolith\/\">Malphite<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 Malphite builds to maximum armor and relies on his R engage. Sion&#8217;s E 25% armor reduction applies before Q&#8217;s physical damage, amplifying Sion&#8217;s Q damage against Malphite&#8217;s otherwise high armor values. Glory in Death&#8217;s 10% max-HP on-hit applies regardless of armor. Sion&#8217;s W shield absorbs Malphite&#8217;s Q poke reliably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. <a href=\"https:\/\/magicstark.cz\/wiki\/nasus-the-curator-of-the-sands\/\">Nasus<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 Nasus&#8217;s Q farming creates predictable stationary positions that Sion can E + Q consistently throughout laning. Sion&#8217;s W passive HP accumulation outpaces Nasus&#8217;s Q stack scaling in the early game. E&#8217;s minion knockback poke harasses Nasus during Q last-hit attempts without direct engagement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. <a href=\"https:\/\/magicstark.cz\/wiki\/chogath-the-terror-of-the-void\/\">Cho&#8217;Gath<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 Cho&#8217;s HP builds amplify Sion&#8217;s Q damage (large target = more time within Q range during charge), W recast AoE (14% \u00d7 Cho&#8217;s 5000+ HP = 700+ damage), and Glory in Death&#8217;s 10% max-HP on-hit. R&#8217;s knockback provides range control against Cho&#8217;s Rupture (Q) approach pattern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u274c Sion is Countered By<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>1. <a href=\"https:\/\/magicstark.cz\/wiki\/fiora-the-grand-duelist\/\">Fiora<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 Riposte (W) parries Sion&#8217;s Q charge at 1-second minimum threshold, converting the stun into a Fiora parry stun on Sion. Grand Challenge Vitals deal true damage bypassing Sion&#8217;s armor and W shield&#8217;s mitigation. Fiora&#8217;s mobility makes landing full 2-second Q charges nearly impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. <a href=\"https:\/\/magicstark.cz\/wiki\/vayne-the-night-hunter\/\">Vayne<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 Silver Bolts true damage bypasses Sion&#8217;s armor scaling and W shield&#8217;s effective HP. Against Sion&#8217;s high HP (5000+), Vayne&#8217;s true damage at 14% max HP every third auto = 700 true damage every three autos \u2013 anti-scales with Sion&#8217;s HP stacking. Tumble repositions Vayne to dodge E and dodge Q charge angles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. <a href=\"https:\/\/magicstark.cz\/wiki\/garen-the-might-of-demacia\/\">Garen<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 Garen&#8217;s Q silence prevents Sion from casting W or E immediately upon close range, forcing Sion to trade with basic attacks only during the silence window. Garen&#8217;s passive health regen sustains through W passive stack losses from Sion&#8217;s auto-attacks. Decisive Strike removes Sion&#8217;s slows, preventing E&#8217;s slow from holding Garen in Q range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>FAQ<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Q: How long does Glory in Death last?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A: Glory in Death lasts until Sion&#8217;s HP decays to 0. The HP loss starts at 2\u201321 (level-based) per 0.264 seconds and increases by 70% of the base value per subsequent tick (accelerating decay). In the early game (low level decay rate), Glory in Death can last 8\u201312 seconds. At level 18 with maximum decay: approximately <strong>6\u20138 seconds<\/strong> depending on how much 100% life steal&#8217;s healing extends survival. Life steal from auto-attacks in Glory in Death <strong>does heal<\/strong> and can extend the duration against targets where 10% max-HP life steal exceeds the decay rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Q: Does Heartsteel stack infinitely with Soul Furnace&#8217;s passive?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A: Yes \u2013 both stack indefinitely and compound each other. Soul Furnace grants HP per kill, Heartsteel grants HP per proc hit. Both accumulate to Sion&#8217;s total HP permanently. At full stacking in a 40-minute game: total HP can exceed <strong>8000\u20139000 HP<\/strong> before the base stats. This total amplifies W&#8217;s shield (16% = 1440 HP), W&#8217;s recast damage (14% enemy max-HP), and Glory in Death&#8217;s revive HP pool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Q: What is the maximum Q stun duration?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A: At full 2-second charge at rank 5: <strong>1-second knock-up + 2.25-second stun = 3.25 seconds total CC<\/strong>. The stun begins after the knock-up lands, running consecutively. This 3.25-second CC window is among the longest single-ability CC chains in the game, matched only by Malzahar&#8217;s suppression and a few channeled abilities. During this window, the entire enemy team can freely attack the CC&#8217;d target.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Q: Can Sion be CC&#8217;d during Unstoppable Onslaught?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A: No \u2013 Unstoppable Onslaught provides <strong>full CC immunity during the charge<\/strong>. Stuns, suppressions, slows, knockups, and displacements all fail against Sion during R. The only thing that stops R is terrain collision (which self-stuns Sion for 0.5 seconds) or champion collision (which triggers the slam). An enemy team that uses CC to stop Sion&#8217;s R charge cannot do so \u2013 their CC abilities are wasted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Q: Is W passive affected by champions Sion assists but does not kill?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A: Yes \u2013 Soul Furnace passive grants 15 HP per <strong>champion takedown<\/strong>, which includes assists as well as kills. Any champion death that Sion contributed to (dealt damage within the participation window) grants the 15 HP bonus.
