Statistical Matchup Analysis

Meta staple Sion (5.4% pick rate, 7th most popular out of 63 Top champions) rarely faces off-meta Trundle (1.8% pick rate). However, even uncommon picks can cheese unprepared players, so basic matchup knowledge provides valuable insurance. Meta strength confirmed: Sion's superior tier rating (A+ vs C) translates into a solid 51.0% matchup win rate. This performance explains why Sion ranks 22nd in win rate among Top champions. Optimize for consistency: Grasp of the Undying paired with Demolish (55.7% win rate, 22.3% popularity) provides the stats you need, while the item sequence Sunfire Aegis > Heartsteel > Unending Despair with Plated Steelcaps delivers 73.6% win rate against Trundle.

Win through macro: Sion takes the matchup (51.04%) despite falling behind in CS (7.11 vs 7.13/min). Your victories come through roaming, team fighting, and map pressure rather than 1v1 lane dominance. Complete superiority: Sion dominates both win rate (51.0%) and damage output (789 vs 713/min, 2nd among Top). The 76 damage/min difference creates massive snowball potential. Statistical dominance: Sion leads in both matchup win rate (51.0%) and KDA (1.80 vs 1.30) - complete superiority across all metrics.

How to Beat Trundle as Sion (Top)

While statistically Sion is slightly stronger than Trundle in the top lane, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage in this matchup. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

Except for rare builds, Sion deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Trundle deals mainly physical damage (83.81%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Trundle, ranking 14th (versus 16th for Sion) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (1.3 versus 1.8) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Sion Top versus Trundle Top matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Sion player to maintain constant pressure on Trundle, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.

    Sion tips:

    • You only have very slight turning ability during Unstoppable Onslaught, so make sure to use it in straight paths.
    • Roar of the Slayer is a great setup ability to land a very powerful Decimating Smash.
    • The Soul Furnace buff displays how much shield strength is remaining, use this information to time its explosion perfectly.

    Playing Against Trundle

    • Trundle is very powerful at location-based combat. Try to draw him off of his Frozen Domain.
    • Make sure to get out of his Pillar of Ice as quickly as possible, as it significantly slows you down.
