A Twitch streamer manages to get the champion Sion generated by Riot Games due to his playing style in League of Legends.

In League of Legends, players are usually supposed to prevent a death and take out their opponent’s Minions. However, one tactic works with the champion Sion, which is designed to die constantly and return as an undead Juggernaut to destroy the opponent’s towers and Nexus.

This tactic with Sion has been common in League of Legends for years and also became known as “Inting Sion”. The Twitch streamer Thebausffs has gained notoriety for this style of play in the MOBA and was also instrumental in bringing it to such attention. With this tactic, the streamer recently played his way up to the rank of Challenger in Korea.

However, the champion will soon receive a nerf. On the test server, his damage has already been reduced. In his zombie form, Sion causes 50 percent less damage to the towers. This also makes the tactic “Inting Sion” obsolete. After all, the objects are the main target there and not the interaction with the other teammates.

Players:inside die on purpose in the playstyle because Sion has a passive ability that resurrects him after death with boosted auto attacks. The LoL gamers exploited this to destroy the towers and the Nexus of the opponents. Everything else is irrelevant and the players strictly follow the plan of destroying the enemy buildings.
