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 Leona

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Respect her level 2

    Back off if she reaches level 2 before you: Zenith Blade (E) then Shield of Daybreak (Q) root you, then stun you.

  2. Trade after her E

    Trade right after Zenith Blade (E): it's her only dash to engage, and it has a 12 to 6 second cooldown.

  3. Don't line up with an ally

    Don't stand in line with an ally when facing her: Zenith Blade (E) damages every enemy in its path and roots the last champion hit.

  4. Save your answer for her engage

    If you have a knockback or a cleanse, save it for her engage: her whole combo relies on Zenith Blade (E) followed by a stun.

  5. Get out of the center of her R

    When Solar Flare (R) lands, get out of the center: it stuns, while the edge only slows.
