Sion vs Shaco Matchup Summary

The Sion vs Shaco matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 16 recent matches analyzed, Sion wins with a 56.3% win rate compared to Shaco's 43.8%, giving Sion a 12.5 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Shaco controls the early laning stage, but Sion outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Shaco needs to press advantages before Sion reaches their power spikes, while Sion should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in sustain, where Sion leads by 2,103 HP/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Sion players can confidently pick into Shaco and play aggressively from level 1. Look to establish lane dominance early through favorable trades and zone Shaco away from CS whenever possible. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

908Shaco

Shaco dominates the early game (first 15 minutes) with a commanding 55.6% win rate — a 11.1 percentage point lead over Sion. This lopsided early game means Shaco can dictate the pace of the lane from level 1, controlling trades, wave state, and river priority.

Sion is far superior in the late game (25+ minutes), boasting a 71.4% win rate — 42.9 points above Shaco. Extended games heavily favor Sion, whose kit and scaling make them a dominant force in team fights and objective control.

This matchup features a dramatic power shift: Shaco must aggressively press their early advantage and close out the game before Sion reaches their scaling breakpoints. If Sion survives the laning phase without falling too far behind, the matchup flips in their favor. Dragon and Rift Herald control are pivotal — the team that secures early objectives can snowball or buy time to scale.
