So im pretty terrible at other champions. Ive spent a lot of time playing pantheon and only play other champions once or twice to understand matchups better. I have like a 60% of the time it works everytime" deal going on here. Like i can probably win 60% of my games if i get panth EVERY game.. but i will lose 100% if im not pantheon. I only feel like i can carry from top or mid. Support can be cool with a good adc but bot lane is just tilting. AND im a terrible jungler.. and pantheon being a terrible jungler already doesnt help.

Any advice or should i just quit while im ahead?

Pantheon isnt a terrible jungler. He isnt as good as he used to be but terrible isnt the word for him.

Jungle isnt really a lategame hyper carry role anymore like it used to be. While you can play hypercarries out of it and wait till lategame. you cant get ahead by farming like you used to.

This is where pantheon comes in. He is very early game based. and jungle being a very early game role suits him. With the current state of the jungle an panth it does make more sense to play him top over jungle. But if you get jungle dont be afraid to play him there. You just need to learn the clear path for that champ and when to gank.

My advice for Panth is to do a clear where you dont have to worry about multiple enemies.

Go Bottom Side buff. Get a leash from your adc and support.

Then Gromp or wolves. Your pick really. Id probably do gromp as your Passive will be more effective against him.

Then Top side buff. Now you should be level 3 with all your abilities.

at this point you should be looking to see if top or mid is gankable.

From here its all situational so i cant really give anymore advice but i hope this helps.

Just play Pantheon. He is one of the best top laners because of his ability to stomp most other champions in lane. Just make sure you don't let the games go on too long. Pantheon falls off incredibly hard late game.

Try to first pick for a teammate so you dont face someone good vs Panth as often, like Galio Chogath . If you carry with roaming the lane matchup is unimportant i suppose, but when playing a champ falling off as hard as Panth you want to be able to bully.

A ton of players are completely one tricks. Focusing on one champion can actually be great, since the odds you know how to play a matchup better than your opponent is WAY higher if you play only one thing.

But when you can't play panth, It might be good to have a similar feeling champion to fall back on through. Try Talon , he also is AD, builds lethality and likes to kill early and roam.
