Kayn has a greater difficulty than Sion. That means Sion players must be cautious when arranging Kayn teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to do well with you.

Working on the same side, you should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capability to dish out massive AD. When paired, these champs should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Conversely, by grouping Sion and Kayn together, you probably will not be providing your other allies a lot of magical damage output. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that neutralizes this hole in their kit.
