Idea for Pantheon R

This is just an idea to make Pantheon's Pantheon new ult a bit less situational by adding something on top of it.

First of all, I'm so happy with the new Pantheon rework; it's just old Pantheon but changed up enough to fit into modern League so big thanks and well done there! This is just an idea that I think Pantheon's R could use to make it more useful. Pantheons R is now in a line and I had the idea that maybe if the very bottom of the line had Pantheon in, he could instead instantly slide that line (a lot like a Malphite Malphite R, except probably slower for balancing purposes). The idea I have in my head is Pantheon is in a fight and needs a bit more damage in a to win, or to proc his passive instantly, so he would press R to instantly slide nearby to do this.

For balancing, I think the range/destination should be the same always and probably the same line range as the global version. If your cursor is in range of causing the slide it would lock to pantheon (the same way skillshots, like Ezreal's Ezreal Q does) to aid the player to be sure they will slide and also to tell them where the slide will stop.

(Again, this is just an idea for something to be put on top* of the new R and not to replace it.)

Well done and thanks again for the new rework,

Kindred TheYazi.

Honestly, Pantheon doesn't need this. His kit is balanced around having an ult that isn't useful in the middle of the fight and isn't up all the time. His basic abilities are simply stronger than most other champions, which makes his early game amazing. That dynamic is part of Pantheon's identity.

Giving him an ult that can be used for damage/mobility instantly and in the middle of the fight would require power to be taken from the rest of his kit.
