Counterplay against Pantheon

As graves top he 100-0 me and I dodge his e and landed my entire q and all the autos I could. Please dont tell me to dont fight him, if I dont fight him I can't do anything because he freezes and zones me, so the "hug the tower" comments please don't talk. As Fiora happens exactly the same, I can't even reach a creep without getting 100-0ed at lvl 3 all-in. Can't understand how in the earth there is a passive that blocks autos and refreshes when you stun someone. Atleast yasuo and fiora have big cooldowns on their shields and have to be quick to use them but pantheon gets that shield each 3aa and he doesn't need to be quick or smart, just trade till you remove his passive, then w and gets it again and if you remove it he would get it again because he hitted you with 3aa.

> As Graves top

Stopped reading right there. Dont try to fight Pantheon and farm with your ranged autos until 6.

He happens to be a hard counter to both Fiora and Graves, since his auto-attack block gets in the way of essential parts of their kits and, unlike other champions with powerful single autos, they don't have the ability to reset their autoattacks to get around the shield.

Your best bet is to outsustain him. Pantheon's Q consumes mana heavily as he spams it, and Pantheon lanes end up in a race between his mana and your health. A cloth + 4 start is a great way to outlast his mana pool. Grasp/Warlord's are great mastery choices for sustain, and armor seals for runes are what you are hopefully running.

As Fiora, W his stun if you're fast, and try not to waste your passive unless you can auto his shield off. As Graves...I don't really know what you would do. Your priority is probably to dash out and focus on farming the creeps.

Oh and by the way, you coming out here complaining about Pantheon when you play Graves and Fiora, who are probably in the top 3 most cancerous toplaners. Trust me, people feel your frustration almost every game they play against you.

Graves has two autos... He can block twice.. Gg. Fiora can actually poke and sustain in a way
