WHen people say "Oh he falls off late game" All I here is "You get to play extremely passively and get zoned from so much CS that you might as well be AFK. Also dont even try to straight up fight him because he can block your AAs and he has no CDs to manage. Overall you dont get to have fun at all but its okay though because he falls off late game."

I would strongly recommend you not play Renekton into Pantheon, lol.

and not dorans , you will need the sustainfive oh tree 1 votesPlay a tank and stack armor. Poppy, malphite, maokai, sion, etc. He's supposed to bully most squishier champs out, so if you choose one and the enemy counter picks you with pantheon, I don't know what to tell you bud. I would take ekko into him if you want to play a carry into him, but that's completely reliant on your skill with ekko.
BlueBilberry1 votesMost people who complain about Pantheon - usually are the all-in types. He is darned fine against the Rivens, Yasuos, etc. So instead, play a tank or lane pusher. (And avoid those champs which spike on low health for extra damage. If you are waiting around for that moment, Certain Death will await you and finish you before you even get there.)
My rule of thumb is: push, push, push. For the early stages, play the slow sustain game. Wait for him to start roaming then push the lane - deny him minions. (Just remember to ping when he is missing to avoid annoying teammates!)
If you can outrange his spear (e.g., the Quinn type champ), then play that to your advantage.
Starting with early armor and some health potions is not a bad idea. At least it gets you through that early spike. Most Pantheon player tend to play "let's get that early level 2 kill", esp if they are the inexperienced types. If you have the armor, then they typically burn through their mana, leaving them quite vulnerable. (Watch for that window - and ping your jungler or friend for a gank.)
Also, take advantage of cannon waves. Helpful to get that shield down when he decides to go ham when that wave hits.
