The Irelia versus Sion matchup in the top lane is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.
Except for rare builds, Irelia deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Sion has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.
An important advantage of Irelia is higher farming statistics (ranked 2nd among role champions) (versus 5th for Sion), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (1.8 versus 1.5) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.
Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Irelia player to maintain constant pressure on Sion, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
