Who Wins
- You lose levels 1-3 to Pantheon's Q poke and empowered W trades since you lack gap closers and reliable sustain early.
- At level 6, you become the stronger duelist as your R makes you immune to his W stun and allows you to run him down with bonus attack speed and AD.
How to Trade
- Your trading pattern revolves around landing Q to slow Pantheon, then activating W and running him down with autos while he's slowed.
- Only commit to extended trades when your W is available for the lifesteal and attack speed, as short trades favor his burst.
Wave Control
- Accept being pushed early and focus on last-hitting safely with Q while building up your item advantage through farming.
- Once you have level 6 and some items, you can start controlling the wave and looking for all-ins when Pantheon overextends.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't try to match Pantheon's early game aggression without your key abilities up, as his empowered abilities will chunk you heavily.
- Never waste your R defensively unless absolutely necessary - save it for offensive plays where you can run him down for a kill.
