Who Wins
- You win level 2 through your Q setup for Pantheon's guaranteed W-Q combo, while their combo requires Thresh to land Q first.
- At level 6, your R and Black Shield give you strong teamfight control, but you must respect Yasuo's R potential off any Thresh hook that bypasses your shield.
Synergy & Trading
- Your optimal trading is using Q when Yasuo uses E aggressively or is locked in animation, then Black Shield Pantheon for his follow-up engage.
- Focus on landing Q on Yasuo rather than Thresh, as Pantheon can more easily follow up on the immobilized ADC.
Wave Control/Roaming
- You should avoid roaming early as your presence is crucial for preventing Thresh engages with Black Shield and setting up kills with Q.
- Only roam when your ADC is safely farming under tower and you have vision control, typically after successful trades that force enemies to recall.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never waste Black Shield on poke damage when Thresh's Q is available, as this leaves your ADC vulnerable to the hook-engage combo.
- Don't use Q aggressively when Yasuo has multiple minions to E through, as he can easily dodge it and you lose your primary engage tool.
