The nerfs for sion were affectionately called The Baus nerfs. How one person can influence a champ so hard that they need a nerf is a show of thebaus skill

[@zapatillaasesina5582]

It's common to see things like this happen when someone makes a difference so big. It was like like watching nba implement the 3 seconds zone cause shaq was unbeatable there. Sad that one is appraised for being the change, and the other is being constantly flamed by that

@@scoper7897 nah that's just classic how yasuo works, mainly cause of the double crit chance passive.

[@scoper7897]

@@Zeequals its not. Kidddddd L ratio

[@boyboynova]

For me the main reason is it works for him and not the average low elo player, is because he has a higher chance of a cashing in on those bounties he builds up. When a lower skill player falls behind it is basically game over, but Baus CONSISTENTLY outplays his opponent once or twice to cash in on the bounty system.

[@KLBloodShot]

It's not even about outplaying it's literally about understanding wave times and making sure your opponent with a lead is stuck in lane with a higher vold advantage, there's such thing as getting bad kills in top lane, like if you kill someone but the wave is crashed under your turret and your 1 hp your kinda fucked cuz your gonna lose more than your opponent xp wise Sotheby's stats from a level outweighs the gold value of a kill

[@boyboynova]

[@kleinguy1707]

I think another big part of his success is his personality, he has always been very humble and very entertaining and this along side with his playstyle legit made him the biggest League content creater to date and every League player knows his Sion

The one thing I love about Baus is that he presents his thesis about why K/D/A isn't everything in a game WITH PROOF OF IT, and yet people STILL CRY when a bad K/D/A player is trying to play aggresive to make a comeback while the "good K/D/A" players are being petty and cowards, conforming with saving their stats even though it's going to cost them the game.

[@eijitoh6252]

True. I'd rather play with a feeder but still tries to win than someone just padding his score and only just farming all game

[@goofyass155]

well that's true but, I still prefer if you losing then you should play defensively instead, being "aggresive and making a comeback" is good and all, but you also have to remember not everyone are like pro players who can outplayed their enemies by pure skill and knowledge alone. Sometimes when you lose, you really are losing, level and gold, and the best decision you can make is to play defensively and wait for the oportunities with your team, being aggresive and keep bashing your head toward the enemy towers will not help you win, you just gonna make everything worse for you and your team.

[@vanjamenadzer]

Yeah, K/D/A isn't everything if you're playing Sion. AP Irelia on the other hand...

[@cat4luny4]

exept for the fact that most of them int with no objectives on the map instead of fliping it on a good spot

That Korea trip was the perfect storm for the bauss. His average viewership went up like 5-10k and never went back. Sion was strong and prowlers claw was goood

[@guizmo_unicorn]

This would work even more on Wild Rift considering the matchmaking is based on KDA, so he'll get better teammates that will profit from all the pressure he's making

[@thunderousavenger2382]

That would explain why on some champions i get matched with level 150s on average whilst being 90 and on others with level 30s and below lol

[@justinjakeashton]

I've seen people win in Wild Rift with inting Sion. Not even the correct Baus version. The turrets in that game are made of paper and there's one less turret so you can reach the Nexus way sooner.

[@eijitoh6252]

Sion is S Tier in Wild Deift. AD or Tank, the Towers are paper in the mobile version.

[@mattontop]

Very good viedo, however I wanted to ask. Will you ever do more guides? I really enjoyed the jungle guides and watched them the most out of your channel, they were very helpfull.

[@-kaori]

The reason his playstyle works is that 1. he plays a lot, 2. people struggle to deal with it, since it's so unusual and they have a hard time adapting to it, even after many times, since he is basically the only one doing it and 3. he has decent game understanding and especially good understanding of when he can best make strategic use of inting.

That's literally their job. They can't let any one champion or play style dominate the game or it will get repetitive

[@DavidHatesNewYoutube]

Love this video, and even as a Baus supporter, I still find it refreshing to watch. One thing that makes him stand out to me is that he still seems to genuinely enjoy the game and treats it as something to look forward to, at least more often than other streamers. Another thing is that even though he's known as a Sion main, he's just as creative with other champions. His Quinn and Rammus are a masterclass of their own, and seeing him abuse mechanics that 99.9% of the playerbase aren't even aware of is always a treat (RIP book build). Also warmly waiting for part 2 of the old League video!

[@minhphung6648]

another thing about his skill is his movement is extremely good, he side step and kite everything, that is one of the stuff that normal player are unable to mimic

[@Alexonthetube]

Like him or hate him. They have to target nerf any champ he uses for abusing this strat. And most games he ends with a large gold lead while being 5/15

[@TurtTheGreat]

Works even better in Wild Rift. You can run laps with Sion, splitpushing two lanes and anybody who wants to stop you has to accept your full kit, and the fact that you're busted on health.

[@uberneanderthal]

[@shadowhunter9385]

I have always found it interesting how a player most known for playing a tank champion basically only plays Assasins: Quinn, Lethality Sion, Ap Gragas, Ap Irelia, Lethality Lee Sin, Lethality Sett... Basically the only exception to that is Rammus, but i would bet he plays Rammus because rammus can assasinate every attackspeed ADC.

[@eicamer7069]

Baus didn’t invent inting sion it existed since before plates where people would just run into the tower and hit it. His play style was different because he wasn’t just running into towers on cooldown and it ended up coopting the name

[@ryswick1064]

He's without a doubt a genius when it comes to the game. He innovated an entire playstyle himself, and he just sees the game differently from everyone else. WITH THAT SAID, he's also kind of a sell out. I say this as a huge thebausffs fan. He's definitely changed the way he plays for money. He will have hidden off-stream accounts where he can hit challenger no problem. But on stream he soft-ints in low master. It's because it's just way better content, he doesn't have to sit in queue for 20 minutes, he doesn't have to tryhard every game, and he gets to do ridiculous builds like AP Irelia. He absolutely trolls and ints on stream. There's literally no reason he has accounts 'stuck' in Master other than it's just what he uses for content when he's not trying. If he actually went tryhard 24/7, it would be way less entertaining and his viewership would be much worse. Unfortunately people don't want to watch streamers just wait in queue all day. He's still one of my favorite streamers, he's gotta be the least toxic high elo player in the world. He's just kind of unwatchable when he's not trying.

[@colontree]

Crazy that Blizzard had a similar issue in Overwatch. Except Blizzard took the lazy way out. BastionMain managed to get top 5 DPS by playing completely differently than any of the best players at the time knews how to defend against. Seemingly throwing every round, except for his massive WinRate (Obviously, getting Top5). Instead of Balancing Bastion... They just banned him because he upset the way the game was "suppose" to be played. With Dive, or Shield, or Meta of the Year. At least Riot tries things sometimes.

[@skowron3599]

In my opinion he's a mastermind, no discussion

[@maksymiliank5135]

giving less gold when you have a lot of deaths is also part of the bounty system. It's explained on leaguepedia. There are these so called bounty tiers. You start at 0 and when you get more kills and gold from minions your tier goes up and when you die, your tier goes down. If you die enough number of times then your tier becomes a negative number and you give less gold for a kill and assist as a result

[@undertalebob3207]

That play style needed nerfing hard. You say its cause at the 11% peak people were just running it down the lane without understanding the choices he was making and you're right. But the difference is before the nerf that was still WINNING way more games than it was losing. Sions win rate was over 57%, Even when playing the style braindead! I was playing in high gold-low plat when it was happening. It was broken as fuck. Inting Sion put your team on a timer. Even going 1-12 the sion usually needed more than 1 person to address him in the side lane and even then would take down a tower almost guaranteed, because you had to use your CC and skills during the fight with him. There was also no damage reduction for turrets back then when no minoins were around, so he didnt need a wave either. He could just show up whenever
