Sion vs Garen in Top lane is a favourable lane on patch 26.17. The one thing to respect: his Q is his engage and silence — hold your E to cancel it and never fire it early. Below is the exact page the OTP runs — runes, skill max order, summoner spells, item build and the four tips that decide the lane, plus a quick quiz before you lock in.

How to play it

✓ DO

E his Q

Use your E when he throws Q — but never before, or you waste it and eat the silence-empowered hit.

Just farm it out

It's a non-matchup — both of you are neutralizers, so play for farm and let the lane sit even.

Don't force kills

He has kill pressure and you don't without help, so don't chase solo trades — bring your jungler for anything.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never use your E before he commits his Q — it's your only answer to it.
