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 Warwick

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay above 50% health

    Keep your health above 50%: below that, Blood Hunt (W) gives him speed toward you and attack speed, three times more below 25%.

  2. Finish him fast below 50% health

    When he drops below 50% health, finish him fast, with CC if you have any: Eternal Hunger (passive) then heals him with each auto, three times more below 25%.

  3. Don't count on a dash to escape

    If you have a dash, don't count on it to escape his held bite: Jaws of the Beast (Q) makes him follow all your movement, then leap behind you.

  4. Stay behind your tanky allies

    In teamfights, stay behind your tankiest allies: Infinite Duress (R) suppresses the first champion hit, and its range grows with his move speed.

  5. Cut his healing

    If you have Grievous Wounds, apply it to him: his autos heal him at low health, and Infinite Duress (R) heals him for all the damage it deals.
