I'm a Panth Jungler; Help Me Out Here

RookPusher·11/12/2018, 5:37:54 PM·2 votes·2,558 views

Whenever I play Pantheon jungle, it's pretty common to have two things happen:

  1. I kick the shit out of the enemy until the laning phase is over.
  2. I lose.

I take Gathering Storm as a means of decreasing my fall-off, but nothing seems to help. Is this just the case that Panth has inherent weaknesses. I'm giving laners insane coverage and it isn't translating.

Considering his W and ULT have AP scaling, it's obvious why his damage falls off. Also lethality falls off later in the game.

Build him with Black Cleaver and Dead Man's Plate, you are gonna feel like you can do sth without getting blown up.

Stormrazor as well so you have some damage after doing your burst combo.

Cleaver-Edge of Night- Ghostblade/Duskblade-Stormrazor-Dead Man's- GA Of course a Warrior until you sell it later.

Not in this order necessarily, but you get the point.

You exist for your W. You are not a killer, you are a facilitator of kills. This is because you have no lane opponent to crush. Take aftershock and build tank after warrior

Well hes an early game jungler and what you wrote off is his naturl curve during a game.

You camp lanes you get ur team ahead and snowball into ez 23 min win. Make sure you take somethign every time you make a kill in lanes like top push tower mid push tower bot push tower/takedrake.

Make sure to get herald to push in one lane mostly mid but if posible push one of the side lanes so they cant hold together. And Abuse acutle crab the hell out of it take it the moment it spawns and have always a control ward out in one of the river bushes.

Tell ur laners to let the enemy push than burn their flash get out of lane wait 10 sec go back in kill and make sure the gankroutes are clear of enemy wards.

After lv 6 ur ganks are way easier like ult into a garanteed kill or flash/heal.

hi i cannot faithfully say without dirty details

do you know the clears and what panth needs for ganks are you confident in ganks are there any builds you know that others/youtubers visually use are you playing panth effectively--the right combos and positioning do you know the occassions where engaging is blunder are you against good matchups and light cc can you slam dunk

if yes then theres nothing i can say off the top of my head to better you oh, have you played the various roles as panth to see which is viable and better for you dont play test in ranked and normals and becareful of the meta me personally ime i like supp sheen panth + gold onhit/spell(tribute?) but switched to the better safer fun'er blue supp carry ez

aim for gold brackets ( $ @ timestamp) that fits you. try to stay committed to your bracket and your core build item/fewer items

goodday

It is really all you can do, get your team a lead and then take it far as you can. At some point you will no longer be able to lead with flanking stuns or aggressive ults. From there it is up to your team to hopefully drive it home.

i dont want to pressure you. but upon viewing the first few youtube videos on panth jung id say the higher elo are more team communication and calling plays as one put it your team is braindead you have to carry.

youd have to knonw the roster and roles and predict camp respawn on counterjungling to starve the jungler. youd have to constantly spy on team and ping spells and ults. youd have to balance the judgement of worth it. ultimately you as pseudo carry have to direct aram and baron.

so idk if you want to jungle carry as pantheon is what im getting at

I Pantheon jungled for awhile this season. I had the same issues. I found that building more bruiser kept me viable, or at least things with shields like Steraks Gage or Hexdrinker helped me engage into the enemy team better late and blow up the squishies, but it would only last so long. The real issue is when teams don't capitalize on a lead. They let the game drag on and don't end when it's best for them to do so.

In the games that you’ve lost, you usually let the enemy take herald and they seem to take all the drakes afterwards. If you’re really going to climb then you need to think, to know that you’re better then everyone in that game. So, herald in lower elos is such a bug deal, you can solo it just don’t face tank it’s empowered hits, also make sure to take it even if ur top comes, you ARE the carry (at that point in the game). You can also get vision in their jg if you are ahead, just don’t fight carelessly as you don’t want to rely on ur teams map awareness in bronze. So once you are ahead as want to stay on top u can Usenet herald for dives (which panth is already great at) and or pressure(have it split alone or with someone). Anyways I just want to point out, Panth doesn’t do that well vs tanks but if you’re forced into that situation rush bc and try to have ur mid or bot ahead so u can peel for them.

That's just how Panth works, man. Even in lane, he either stomps or becomes useless.

You could try going Conqueror and playing and building him more like a fighter than an assassin.
