Playing as Pantheon

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Start with Shield Vault

    Start your trades with Shield Vault (W): you leap onto your target and stun them, so Comet Spear (Q) can't miss.

  2. Thrust or throw

    Tap Comet Spear (Q) for a short thrust that refunds part of the cooldown, or hold it to throw your spear farther.

  3. Raise your Aegis against burst

    Raise Aegis Assault (E) against enemy burst: you ignore damage from that direction, except from towers.

  4. Roam with Grand Starfall

    Roam with Grand Starfall (R): you leap from long range onto the chosen area, and the spell instantly readies Mortal Will (passive).

Playing against Evelynn

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Back off as soon as she marks you

    Back off toward your tower as soon as Allure (W) marks you: if the mark lasts 2.5 seconds, her next hit charms you and lowers your magic resist.

  2. Place a Control Ward

    Once she hits level 6, place a Control Ward on her paths: it reveals camouflaged enemies, like Evelynn in Demon Shade (passive).

  3. Save your CC for her arrival

    If you have CC, use it as soon as she comes out of camouflage on you: Last Caress (R) is her only way to become untargetable and get away.

  4. Play hard before she hits 6

    Play hard before she hits level 6: without the Demon Shade (passive) camouflage, your wards see her coming.
