Who Wins
- You lose most pre-6 trades due to Pantheon's superior burst and range advantage with Q poke and guaranteed W-E combos.
- Post-6 you gain significant kill pressure with R, especially if you can land a Q3 tornado, but Pantheon still wins short trades with his empowered abilities.
How to Trade
- Your best trading pattern is to E through minions to close distance, auto-Q-auto for quick trades, then E away before he can respond with W-E combo.
- Only commit to extended trades when you have Q3 ready and can follow up with R for the kill.
Wave Control
- Focus on farming safely and maintaining minion waves for E mobility rather than pushing aggressively.
- Try to freeze the wave on your side to force Pantheon to overextend, giving you opportunities to run him down with E mobility and Q stacks.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't fight in open areas without minions as you lose all mobility and become an easy target for his W-E-Q combo.
- Avoid trading when your passive shield is down, as Pantheon's burst will chunk you heavily without the shield absorption.
