Pantheon THE BAKER SUPPORT! What do you guys think? I have played probably 30 games as Pantheon support and won a VAST majority, many times carrying the team (not by stealing kills lol). Would there be any ADC's that would specifically have good synergy with pantheon? I have been thinking but i don't have a very vast champion knowledge. I usually build Bruiser and build my AD items first for the extra lane pressure. For runes i use 9x Greater Mark of Mana Regeneration, 9x Greater Glyph of Mana Regeneration, 9x Greater Seal of Mana Regeneration. For Quintessences, i will either go with more Mana Regeneration, or armor penetration quints. I have noticed it is CRITICAL to have Mana Regeneration if you are going to play Pantheon support. The reason for this is because your Q poke has VERY high damage and VERY low cool-down. However the problem lies with the fact that if you want to spam that harass, you are going to have to use most, if not all, of your Mana. So with the Mana Regeneration you can keep your harass nearly constant. Has anybody tried this before? Is there a certain ADC that would synergize well with Pantheon? Please discuss this with me and tell me what you think!

I've played it often with a duo buddy of mine.

We went Pantheon/Quinn with great success. This was largely due to Quinn's E, which momentarily stuns the target, followed up by Pantheon's stun. The chain cc and burst damage worked out really well. The only issue we ever had was with an Alistar support. Good luck in your future games!

Played a bit of Panth support. He's super fun with his q and his block mechanic. Although i don't like the mana runes cuz it leaves you vulnerable to an all-in support like ali, naut, or blitz. I found that the best adcs were corki and graves. The idea is to get them low with qs, then all in with a w.

It seems like you play him as a poke support champ which is fine but theres other champs that can poke better. But its not for me to say. You've def played a lot more games than me. When i play him i play him like a half poke half all in champ.

i played pantheon in all roles for about 1000 games in diamond and even tho he can pretty much do everything a little bit, he cant do anything a little bit more either. he literally is a jack no of trades, master of even less.

basically, if you like pantheon, have fun with him. but no matter what you do, there is always a long list of champions who could do the exact same thing but ten times better. in my eyes, pantheon is currently the least viable champion in the league...
