Pantheon General Playstyle:
Laning Phase:
Use Pantheon's strong early game to be aggressive. Poke with Comet Spear and engage with Shield Vault when possible.
Mid Game:
Push sidelanes and use Grand Starfall to create number advantages in fights.
Late Game:
Continue to apply sidelane pressure and join teamfights, where Pantheon can act as a frontliner or diver.
Advice on Farming:
Ensure you're last-hitting minions effectively. Use Comet Spear to poke and farm from a distance if needed.
Teamfighting:
Pantheon can dive the backline to burst down carries or act as a frontliner. Use Aegis Assault to block incoming damage and focus on priority targets.
Dragon and Baron Objective:
Pantheon's Grand Starfall can be a game-changer. Use it to engage or re-engage fights around these objectives. Ensure vision control around these areas.
Matchups:
Extreme Threats: Akali (Pre-6 be aggressive. After 6, Akali can easily burst you down. Shove and roam if possible.)
Ideal Synergies: Aurelion Sol (Pantheon works well with any team if played correctly.)
Additional Advice:
1. Pantheon can instantly proc Press the Attack with an Empowered Shield Vault, amplifying the damage of the subsequent combo.
2. Conqueror is the recommended keystone as it provides sustained damage and healing, especially post the 20-minute mark.
3. Against ranged matchups, Sudden Impact is valuable as it amplifies damage when engaging with Shield Vault.
Armed with the meteoric wisdom of the Pantheon Top Guide, you're now ready to dominate the top lane with the finesse of a thespian delivering a dramatic monologue and the impact of a grand starfall that leaves enemies pondering the meaning of life as they crumble beneath your might.
