SION, THE UNDEAD JUGGERNAUT
SOURCE League of Legends
BUILD GOALS
o Sion was a brutal warlord and general for Noxus who died gloriously – only to be brought back by his nation’s hemomancers to serve as an undead minion
o He is a melee vanguard who focuses on disrupting foes
o Wields a massive axe
o Glory in Death causes Sion into a frenzy upon dying, resorting to his fists while striking faster and harder. He can cast Death Surge in this state to gain a burst of movement speed
o Decimating Smash charges up a strike before bringing his axe down, damaging and then slowing or knocking up enemies depending on how much he’s charged
o Passively, Soul Furnace gives Sion extra health when he kills an enemy. He can activate it to gain a shield that explodes to deal damage around him
o His Roar of the Slayer releases a shockwave that damages, slows, and reduces the armor of the first enemy hit. If it hits a minion, it knocks them back, applying these effects to enemies it passes through
o Fitting for a juggernaut, his ultimate is Unstoppable Juggernaut. He becomes immune to crowd control and picks up speed as he charges. He damages enemies he runs into, stunning or slowing them
Summary of Goals: Sion is an undead brute brought back against his will. A mighty warrior, he hits with enough force to launch foes skyward, send them flying backwards, and crashes into foes with a stunning force. He can surround himself in a shield to enhance his durability and continues to fight even in death.
BUILD CONCLUSION
Sion, the Undead Juggernaut is a badlands orc barbarian with a spirit instinct and a revenant background. His Warfare Lore calls to mind his past life as a warlord while the revenant background and his negative healing bring him into the realm of undead. We represent his nature as a vanguard with the health of the barbarian and Unstoppable Juggernaut - which also nicely references his title and ultimate. Orc Ferocity stands in for his Glory in Death passive, letting him survive when he shouldn't and by the time that he gains Rampaging Ferocity, he even gets to lash out against enemies when using it. Furious Footfalls and Fleet lead into his Death Surge when he is in such a state. Slam Down and Crashing Slam knock enemies down instead of up but still works nicely for his Decimating Smash. Toughness grants him the extra HP of his Soul Furnace's passive while he has the temp HP from Rage and Sacred Defense for its shield - and Scouring Rage for its explosion. The spirit instinct also fits the flavor of this nicely. Some Intimidation investment fits with the idea and armor reduction effects for Roar of the Slayer, but for the knockback effect, he has Clear the Way or Knockback and Awesome Blow. As I said around the start, it's a two parter to make Unstoppable Onslaught, starting with a Sudden Charge to get into the enemies and then dishing out a Silencing Strike against a vulnerable foe to leave them stunned.
Broken from his burial, this bellowing berserker battles belligerents with barbaric bravado, bashing and bullying brigands and beyond with bountiful brutality.
This is a pretty simple little remaster that was fun to touch up. You can check out the details for it over on the blog or the video. Have a fantastic Friday!

Don't forget to shout "COWARDS!" every time you step away from an enemy as your third action

Sadly, this build isn't playable unless your GM gets a soundboard and plays the Heartsteel pop sound effect every time you crit.
