Matchup plan

Take First Strike rune to compensate for lost tower plate gold, or even surpass it. AP Malphite vs Sion builds Liandry's Torment and Riftmaker; sustained damage is more effective than burst because Haunting Guise provides 6% damage amp and Hullbreaker lacks resistances. In teamfights, prioritize threatening enemy backline; after killing backline, Sion is no threat.
