Sion is way more rewarding as AD imo and that's the only way I regard him as viable. One of the best duelist in game with his ult.
And the ways to make this work are:
1) Somehow play him early as a caster without buying anything caster class related other than a single doran's ring while farming every minion possible and waiting till late mid - early late stage (this also includes caster runes by the way).
If this works: opposing team is unskilled/retarded/afk/having a ridiculous pick
2) Play him bot lane with a high sustain support or a highly aggresive support + jungler camping your lane 24/7
If this works: read above.
The only point people are winning as Sion AP is that a lot of casters got a strong burst but not that reliable DPS/not as high as Sion's 2.0 ap skaling per low cooldown mid range burst. Top lane is a bit different but Sion's point stays the same.
