Is Sion better when played alongside Ziggs?

There is no perfect champion pairing for Sion that will always be his top synergy. Yet, Ziggs is a below average ally for Sion. By locking into the same team as Sion, he drops their win rate by -2.8% to 47.4%. This clearly indicates that there is a harmful strategic relationship between Sion and Ziggs that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Ziggs has a lower difficulty than Sion. That means you don't need to be careful when lining up Ziggs comrades to fight alongside, as they will require a relatively low level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

Fighting cooperatively, you will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to tank a lot of damage. Together, these two might be able to provide enough cover for their team's carries.

Although, by pairing Sion and Ziggs together, you will not be giving your other teammates very much anti-tank damage dealing potential. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that nullifies this disparity in their abilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Ziggs ally, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well anyway.
