Pantheon Support guide

Pantheon support is an engage tank built around Shield Vault (W), Aegis Assault (E), and Comet Spear (Q): dash onto the target with Shield Vault to damage and stun them, set Aegis Assault to walk through their return damage, then land Comet Spear for the follow-up hit while Mortal Will (passive) empowers whichever spell comes next.

The build

Rune page: Press the Attack, Triumph, Legend: Haste, and Coup de Grace (Precision), with Relentless Hunter and Cheap Shot (Domination). Summoners: Flash and Ignite. Skill order opens Shield Vault (W) at level 1, then maxes Comet Spear (Q) first with Shield Vault (W) second. Starter: two Health Potions, into Plated Steelcaps. Core build: Umbral Glaive, Eclipse, Black Cleaver, with Bloodsong, Sundered Sky, and Voltaic Cyclosword as later options.

Ability mechanics

Mortal Will (passive) empowers Pantheon's next spell every few spells or attacks. Shield Vault (W) dashes him to a target, damaging and stunning them. Aegis Assault (E) sets his shield, making him invulnerable to damage from the front while he strikes repeatedly with his spear. Comet Spear (Q) can be thrust up close or thrown from range, giving him a poke option even when Shield Vault (W) is on cooldown.

Matchups

Hardest matchups by win rate: Leona, Senna, Thresh, Pyke, Nautilus. Best matchups: Karma, Lulu, Seraphine.
