Sion vs Renekton

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Prioritize wave control and health stacking to survive Renekton's early lane pressure and scale into a durable front line.
Avoid giving Renekton easy early trades by respecting his empowered (W) stun and fury management to deny his lane dominance.
This is a snowball vs scale matchup where Sion must absorb early pressure and leverage teamfight engage later.

Trading pattern

Use (E) slow to set up charged (Q) from fog or protected angles for impactful trades.
Punish Renekton after he expends both (E) dashes or misses empowered (W) by stepping forward for trades.
Avoid trading when (W) shield is down or (Q) is interrupted to prevent losing short trades to Renekton's burst.

Danger windows

Beware when Renekton has high fury and empowered (W) ready for burst trades; avoid extended fights during this window.
Respect Renekton's ability to dash in and out with double (E); avoid getting caught without an escape.
Be cautious after missing (Q) or when (W) shield is down, as you are more vulnerable to Renekton's short trades.

Early game

Focus on clearing waves safely and stacking (W) shield health to mitigate Renekton's burst trades.
Avoid extended fights before level 6 when Renekton has full fury and (W) empowered stun available.
Use brush and fog to threaten charged (Q) angles and force Renekton to play cautiously early.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) with a clear path and team follow-up to force fights or return lane pressure; Renekton will respect this engage.
After stacking (W) health and tank items, absorb space and threaten charged (Q) zones to become hard to remove.
Respect Renekton's level 3 full combo with empowered (W) and double (E) dashes, and his level 6 (R) for all-in durability and damage.

Win conditions

Use wave control and fog to land charged (Q) and force Renekton to play defensively, denying his early snowball.
Stack (W) shield health and build tank items to become a frontline that can absorb Renekton's burst and initiate with (R).
Coordinate with team to follow up on (R) engages and leverage your durable front line to win teamfights and control the map.
