Pantheon Q tweak

Let me preface this by saying I am not a Panth main at all. I just played him a few times for fun and he seemed very linear and boring. Walk up q a few times, then they are low enough all in. That's kind of how every game went for me. No real need to manipulate waves, no kill shots to hit, just q until you can all in. So it made me start to think "how could he be more fun?" The rest of his kit is awesome! The jump stun into the aoe damage and the semi- global are the fun parts about the champ. So I focused mainly on the q and here's what I came up with.

Q- Pantheon throws his javelin to a location dealing ad damage in a small area (big enough to hit grouped caster minions) and applying a slow for 1 sec. If it directly hits a champ it deals bonus ad damage, and applies a 40% slow for 1 sec.

It would keep the same throwing animation but instead of disappearing it actually hits the ground and stays for a second like j4's spear. It not point and click anymore but can go over minions and hit the back line if you want. Thus just seems like it would be more fun to play around with make him a more enjoyable champ to play. I'm not very good with damage ratios or distance in game so I just came up with the idea. I'll let the number people do the rest hahaha

What do you guys think?

No, stop making threads after playing a champion 5 times please.

If played correctly Pantheon Dominates his lane, he can freeze minions and force the enemy top laner to be behind 40 farm, look at the guide for more information.

Got a lot of wins in silver with him recently.

I don't neccisarily even think changing Q to a skillshot would be interopretated as a nerf...MANY players prefer skillshot to point and click.

I think Giving it the Olaf Axe Throw treatment is a good idea for a change. Do I think he needs a change? No. But i'd be cool with this change if they decided to go through with it, I don't think it would make or break him, just slightly change him.

Pantheon should definitely not have a slow on his Q, regardless of if it's a skillshot or not.
