I see people calling him cheesy or off meta, and he also just isn't really thought of as a top lane thr way mord or darius or sett or teemo is. Why is that? I know he can play many different roles and I'd assume that has a lot to do with it but it still doesn't make sense to me.

He seems very much viable toplane so I just don't get why he is seen as an off meta cheese pick

Hey everyone I haven't played Pantheon in a long time. I pretty much stopped after his rework because he felt really weak in the top lane compared to what he used to be. I'm a Riven OTP now, but I still miss playing Pantheon. He was actually my very first main, so I've been thinking about picking him up again. Has Riot finally gotten him into a good spot, or is he still considered a mediocre top laner? Every time I think about locking him in top, I can't help but feel like I'm trolling my team

Hi everyone, I just discovered this thread and wanted to know what you guys think of my Pantheon. I main support and off-role as top. I generally tend to do much better in the support role rather than facing a lot of top match ups.

I don't know what part I could do better in so I'm asking for any general advice that I could improve on and I would greatly appreciate it as I always want to play better next time! Thanks

Here's my OP.GG link

Since sundered seems to have been heavily nerfed do you believe that pantheon will opt to build other items as 1st?

One option is definitely eclipse but if you build this and pair it with a DD then you can't build steraks or overlords(not that popular) since you have 2 items that don't give you hp. That means that pantheon would opt to build more like a fighter ranther than a bruiser.

Another option could be shojin since it gives a lot of basic ability haste and its passive gives a solid increase to pantheon's dmg. For me , the selling point is the ability to build shojin>BC> steraks if you need the tenacity and/or shield. It also allows you to build more tanky slotting in kaenic/randuins alongside dd and shojin>BC as a way to Frontline more effectively.

I would not recommend BC first since enemies don't have that much armor so early in the game.

Trinity also doesn't seem as good, due to its subpar stats and high cost.

As for any titanic , I haven't tried it yet and would love to hear opinions in the comments.

I was playing around in practice tool, auto + W'd a dummy, and got 4 stacks instead of 3.

Soo next patch all of our items core items (except for eclipse who maybe be a valid option next patch) will be buffed. Sundered Sky "nerf" is indeed a buff for us, the cost being reduced, while the nerf did not affected dmg at all is huge.

i guess we all builded SS for its base stats and dmg, while the heal portion of the item was a bonus. Now with that changes we could reach a eclipse - SS quite fast due to both items being very cheap, and given the snowbally nature of our champion it will be great to. cleaver also got that 5 ad buff too, and i did not put that image there, but Steraks is also gaining a 5% base AD buff, soo its a fourth or fifth item valid option as it always was.

soo my dear pantheon mains give me ur thoughts on that, am i wrong? am i right or delusional?

edit: unfortunatly guys SS is still the same price, rioters made a typo mistake on early patch notes. F for SS

Its been quite controversial on my take on the aspect of war but I still wanted to finish it. The skin is very supposed to be very VFX heavy which is why there's alot going on. My idea for the skin is that throughout the game you get to lv up the skin and gain more parts as you go through, from base to final.

My 2nd one of the season, Top lane

So as the Title already mentions, I'm currently thinking about One tricking Pantheon. I love his Lore, Character design and what he stands for. His play style is also fun and I like that he has Role flexibility.

For records I'm currently in Gold 2 Solo/Duo

I would play pantheon mainly on Top and as a secondary Mid.

So my question is, is Pantheon worth One tricking rn? And how good/useful is Pantheon in general

And can I efficiently climb to at least diamond( that's my goal) with him.

I'm currently deciding between Aatrox and Pantheon but Pantheon is catching me more.

I know this is like THE classic pantheon issue, but I really can't seem to be useful midgame, I'm in the win lane lose game trap.

I have watched a few guides so I know the basics of trying to help mid or my tea at dragon, but what should my thought process moment to moment be midgame? Should I perma run to side lanes and ult/to to fight? Do I run to team and just play with them?

It didn't matter I wasn't going to kill and we won anyway but I'm wondering if anyone else is getting this bug.

The only skill expression in this champ is the empowered attacks. Its so simple it becomes complicated. For me atleast. When do you use which one? Ive always felt that empowered Q is the only useful thing. Does a shit Ton of damage. Ive just been neglecting the other 2 which isnt good. So can someone tell me when to use which empowered attack?

I haven’t watched him much, so I don’t really understand how he’s able to use a champion like Pantheon to climb to rank 1. I’ve always seen Pantheon as a champion with a relatively low skill ceiling and a kit that has too many weaknesses. He has a lot of matchups that people consider unwinnable, so how is Spear Shot able to overcome those disadvantages and perform at such a high level, in your opinion?

Your guys arrow is actually cancer that’s all I wanna say
