Sion vs K'Sante

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Prioritize wave control to farm safely and build health stacks with (W) for scaling durability.
Avoid giving K'Sante free access to terrain angles that empower his (R) isolation and displacement.
This is a control vs teamfight matchup where Sion must outscale and engage decisively in front-to-back fights.

Trading pattern

Use (E) to slow K'Sante before committing to a charged (Q) from fog or brush for maximum impact.
Punish K'Sante after he uses (W) displacement or (R) isolation when his cooldowns and durability drop.
Avoid obvious (Q) charges and trades when K'Sante has full (Q) stacks or (W) ready, as he controls short trades well.

Danger windows

Respect K'Sante's threat when (Q3) stacks are ready and (W) displacement is up; avoid extended trades then.
Be cautious when (R) is available for K'Sante as he can isolate and displace you into dangerous positions.
Avoid low-health fights where K'Sante's passive and all-in potential can punish mistakes.

Early game

Focus on stable farming and avoid extended trades before level 6 when (R) unlocks your long-range engage.
Use brush and fog to hide charged (Q) attempts and force K'Sante to respect your threat.
Play around your (W) shield uptime to absorb damage and avoid trades when it's down.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) with clear paths and team follow-up to force fights or return to lane with pressure.
Build health and tank items to maximize (W) scaling and become a frontline that K'Sante struggles to remove.
Respect K'Sante's level 6 (R) for isolation potential and avoid terrain angles that empower his displacement.

Win conditions

Use wave control and fog angles to land charged (Q) and build health stacks safely.
Reach high health scaling to absorb damage and threaten teamfight engages with (R).
Deny K'Sante access to terrain angles and punish his cooldowns to prevent him from isolating or displacing you effectively.
