Scuttle Contest

  • You lose early scuttle fights due to Pantheon's superior burst damage and E block negating your Q-E combo damage.
  • From level 6, you can only win 1v1s if you land your full combo while Pantheon's E is on cooldown and you have a significant health advantage.

Predicted Jungle Path

  • Pantheon will likely start his buff opposite to yours and look for a fast level 3 clear to contest scuttle or invade your jungle.
  • He typically goes Red-Krugs-Raptors or Blue-Gromp-Wolves depending on his starting side, prioritizing early ganks after his first clear.

Invade or Not

  • Avoid invading Pantheon early as he wins most 1v1 encounters pre-6 and can easily escape with W stun if things go poorly.
  • Your best invade timing is post-6 when you have R available and can catch him at low health after his clear, particularly at his krugs or gromp.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't attempt to fight Pantheon when his E is available as it will block your Q-E combo entirely, leaving you vulnerable to his full rotation.
  • Avoid face-checking bushes or river areas early game as his burst potential can force unfavorable recalls or deaths.
