Who Wins
- Pre-6, Pantheon wins most extended trades due to his passive shield blocking your empowered Q damage and his W stun enabling free all-ins; post-6, you gain global pressure with R, but Pantheon still wins a straight 1v1 if he has his passive available, so the power dynamic doesn't fully flip in your favor locally.
How to Trade
- Your best trading pattern is to use Q to poke from range, then activate W to block his W stun when he engages, and follow with E taunt to force him to fight without his passive shield active; short trades where you land Q and disengage are far more sustainable than extended fights where his passive resets punish you repeatedly.
Wave Control
- Push the wave consistently to deny Pantheon his preferred freeze-and-dive setup, as a slow push or freeze lets him stack passive and all-in you under tower; shoving also lets you roam or threaten R globally, which is your primary source of game impact beyond lane.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Do not use E aggressively to initiate unless his passive is visibly on cooldown, because a failed taunt into a shielded Pantheon means he absorbs your damage, stuns you with W, and wins the trade decisively with no counterplay available to you.
