His shield works against Baron and Rift Herald, but not Dragon.

Why?

Dragon's attacks are considered spells since Riot didn't want people cheesing early dragons.

Before when dragon gave Global gold and had slower attacks, people found ways to utilize pantheon's shield passive to cheese early dragons as low as level 1/2.

They removed that function cause they thought it was abusive. here is a video (check it at 3:33 which i have the video start at):

I don't understand why they don't like the early dragons, it's a fair strategy. People should just learn to get skuttlecrab.

Maybe if his shield would work against Dragon then he might be played a bit more, because I haven't seen one in ages.
