Item Build
Off-meta buildBuild path · Doran's Blade → Health Potion → Ionian Boots of Lucidity → The Black Cleaver → Last Whisper → The Bloodthirster
An off-meta build people actually run in Classic. Stat sites do not track it, so this one is curated from how the abilities scale in this patch — treat it as a starting point, not measured data.

Playstyle
Spear Shot costs little and hits hard enough to take lane priority in the middle. Aegis of Zeonia closes the trade, and from level six Grand Skyfall keeps arriving in the side lanes. Black Cleaver keeps the assassination window open later than the pick usually has one.

After attacking or casting spells 4 times, Pantheon will block the next incoming basic attack or turret attack.
Pantheon hurls his spear at an opponent, dealing damage.
Pantheon leaps at an enemy and bashes the enemy with his shield, stunning them. After finishing the attack, Pantheon readies himself to block the next attack.
Pantheon focuses and unleashes 3 swift strikes to the area in front of him, dealing double damage to champions. Pantheon also becomes more aware of his enemy's vital spots, allowing him to always crit enemies below 15% health.
Pantheon composes himself then leaps into the air to a target, striking all enemy units in an area. Enemies closer to the impact point take more damage.
Champion Tips
Riot officialPlaying as
- Using Aegis of Zeonia quickly followed by Heartseeker Strike can devastate your enemies.
- Using Spear Shot frequently in a battle, along with attack speed items, can help defensively by charging Aegis Protection.
- Using Grand Skyfall to assist your allies across the map can quickly turn the tides of battle, putting your allies at an advantage.
Playing against
- Keeping yourself hidden in brush can make it harder for Pantheon to target you with Grand Skyfall.
- Watch out for when Pantheon has a stunning or snaring partner in lane with him (example: Morgana, Sion) as he can cause devastating damage with his Heartseeker Strike.
- Use your auto-attack to break his shield before casting your abilities.
