New Pantheon is too strong. Latest rounds of updates and characters too overloaded.

I was powerless in lane against him with no counter play options as Jax. No champion should beat out any one other champion so strongly that said other champion cant even exist in lane. I couldnt even farm under tower without him taking me to half hp when i tried to cs, with no ability to return any damage to him. He would stun me, deal 1/4 of my hp in damage, throw up his invulnerability wall and kite me to 1/2 hp while I could only flail helplessly, then spear me at long range when I ran away. EVERY SINGLE TIME. This is broken. He can't have a better Braum wall than Braum. He can't have a Braum wall WITH an on demand stun AT ALL, and be considered fair. Fix him, stop updating old champs to do stuff they didn't do before, stop making so many changes to the game, and stop overloading your new champs with so much broken nonsense.

Neeko's snare pierces everything. It's counterparts in lux, morgana, ivern, bard, elise, and others get less damage from a single target skill shot, and have to risk themselves more to get it. The only champion that has a fully piercing snare other than neeko to my knowledge, is Zyra, and she's only justified in having that property on her snare because she is so dang squishy.

Sylas is a bursty bruiser mage that steals ults. Remove the bruiser, or remove the burst mage. He can't blow up people in a split second, and be resilient to damage, especially with how difficult it is to counter play an ult stealing champ to begin with.

Pyke ult is better Darius ult. This devalues the feel of the Darius ult. Darius ult doesn't even share gold. Pyke's ult granting gold to his ally's is too broken. Pyke's ult being able to chain executes is too broken, and negatively impacts the feel of Darius's ult by encroaching on Darius's ult's chain execute property. Pyke's ult's ability to splash execute people is strong enough.

The power of your champion designs are trending upward at an alarming rate, and your disregard for the practice that your players have put into the game is exceedingly frustrating, and robs me of my desire to play. I don't want to take a break, and have to relearn how old champions work to be able to play the game, when I had already built my understanding of them. Now that these old champions are different, my old expectations of these champions mislead me in my thinking because I'm basing my decisions off of things that I didn't know changed. I took a long break. Now I'm as frustrated as I was when I had initially decided to stop. I can't even enjoy this game with my friends, and they're the only reason I'm here.

Stop insisting on a persistent learning curve. I don't want to be a new player forever, or constantly devote an unhealthy amount of my time to this game so that I can perform reasonably well in any scenario. Updates to this game must be done WITH RESPECT to the time your players have already put into it. Right now the time I have put into this game feels meaningless because my knowledge lies on a bed of faults that are not worth my time to study. I would rather study knowledge that won't change from underneath me, as if a rug pulled from under my feet. It wasn't my fault that the thing I used to know was wrong, and the person who pulled the rug from under me... well they clearly didn't consider me at all now did they? --_--

Now that I have made my points reasonably, I must say that I am angry. Irritated. Infuriated. Enraged. Extremely pissed off. Even seething with raw terrible feelings and emotions from putting myself in the position to receive stimulation from your game. I will probably not continue playing, even with my friends, because this game makes choices that impact my mental health negatively.

I will not subject my brain to such negative biasing.

Panth has less teamfight CC than braum, less overall durability, and his wall doesn't block CC, just damage. Also, panth scales kinda of bad, and jax scales amazingly. In all truth, jax is too strong early against a lot of matchups anyway, for someone who scales into a monster.

So I honestly don't feel bad when jax gets spanked early game, because you know what he does to 99.99% of the roster in the late game? that's right, triforce, SoS, MAYBE rageblade, plus a durability item or two, and he just pounds the crap out of people with actual ZERO counterplay. Oh jax just bought SoS? Good luck getting an auto in. You have to set him really far behind in order to prevent him from auto-snowballing at the beginning of mid game, because these days he only needs two items to really start ripping on most champs.

What you are experiencing here is what it feels like to be on the other end of jax's zero counterplay beatdown, and that's fair if you ask me.

However, a lot of the champs that you mentioned such as pyke or sylas are problematic as well, and are incredible issues right now, I'm just pointing out that jax is as well. As for panth, I don't have too many issues with him tbh, and for sake of my argument, I've only played against panth, never as panth.

So Pantheon is not that strong, just let him push in and dodge spear. If you are low hpvit deals more dmg so try to use potions early. You always can go second wind or bone plating with resolve and go back after few wawes and get a dorans shield with triforce you outsclaed him in 1v1 except he has 2 items by the time u have triforce and btw his E has 22 sec cd ornsomething near that and its not too strong against Jax, its good against burst and Jax has sustain damage. But its sure he beats u early but he is better than old panth: no ppint click poke no auto attack blocking.

And about Sylas if you dont feed him he wont be unkilleble and oneshot. But if u feed Irelia or Darius or Ryze they also will be unkilleble and oneshot.
