Or terrorizing opponents with AP Master Yi or Sion mid?

  • Riot names Sion mid as a remembered Classic-era lane experiment.

These items already appear on this page's archived 3.15.5 recommendation. Official text only names Sion mid, not a separate AP or stunlock recipe.

Historical versus modern

Ability names differ between historical 3.15.5 and modern 16.14.1 (Feel No Pain, Cryptic Gaze, Death's Caress, Enrage, Cannibalism); values and mechanics still require Classic launch-client verification.

Sion, the Undead Champion, is documented here from Riot's 3.15.5 historical snapshot. The Top / Mid / Support labels are an editorial navigation taxonomy, not launch-patch usage statistics.

Three-layer build system

Sion build evidence

Only layers with qualifying evidence are shown. Creator-tested and launch-verified layers are absent until their evidence gates pass.
