Who Wins
- You lose early 1v1s levels 1-3 due to Pantheon's Q poke and E block negating your Q damage.
- At level 6, you still struggle as his R gives him kill pressure and mobility advantage over your telegraphed abilities.
How to Trade
- Your best trades involve charging Q from fog of war or after Pantheon uses E, then following with W shield pop and E slow to disengage.
- Avoid extended trades as his passive empowered abilities and Q spam will out-damage your cooldown-dependent kit.
Wave Control
- Focus on shoving waves with Q and E to minimize his poke windows and create recall timings.
- You want to avoid slow pushes where he can repeatedly Q you, instead creating fast pushes or freezing near your tower when possible.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never try to charge Q in his face when his E is available, as he'll block the damage and stun you for a punishing trade.
- Don't get baited into all-ins when his passive is stacked, as his empowered W will guarantee he wins the extended fight.
