Pantheon's Passive is only kind of busted.

Okay so I do not think Pantheon's passive is super crazy strong or anything. There is just one little thing about it that annoys the crap out of me. It blocks Gangplank and Ezreal q abilities.

Pantheon's description for his passive states," After attacking or casting spells 4 times, Pantheon will block the next incoming basic attack or turret shot."

That's all fine and dandy but Gp and Ez q ABILITIES are not basic attacks or turret shots. So why does it block them? I understand they apply on hit effects that are normally applied by basic attacks, but they are still not basic attacks. They are abilities, so I think riot needs to fix that in a patch very soon. If anyone can actually explain to me why they have his passive block these certain abilities that would be great.

GP and Ez Q are counted as Basic Attacks. They apply on-hit effects and such, and thus Pantheon blocks them.

It works for other empowered AA's as well. Renekton W, etc.
