Just to clear this up. Interlocutioner was the lead writer for Pantheon. I shadowed the process and learned tons from him! He asked me to speak on his behalf for his video, and hopefully I did an ok job. Please give him all the props!

Well. They removed his armor. Taking him from the character with the best designed armor in the game to the worst. His spear and shield are over-designed in ways that would actually hinder its use in combat. He now has a bunch of glowing crap around his head so I can no longer ignore the space crap.

So yeah. I hate it.

And that’s me done, guys.

To Bioluminescence, you are hands down the best spokesperson for a company I’ve ever had the pleasure of interacting with. Keep being the positive map loving influence you are.

To Ralanr working with you was great. Keep being awesome man.

To everyone else, I sincerely hope you continue to enjoy the game.

Peace out.

This is gonna sound silly, but champions that have a lot of gold on them make me excited af. I'll be adding him to the Azir-Kayle team I so like.

Just going over his kit from what I saw here: [Q]: Throws his Spear in a Linear Skillshot. This is a channeled ability & Pantheon can move, similar to how Pyke can channel his hook. [W]: Looks unchanged [E]: Similar to his old [E], except he puts up his shield & can move. [R - Grand Starfall] : Hybrid between Galio's Ulti & His own Ulti. Slams down like a meteor & creates a shockwave.

So far, I'm really digging what they gave to Pantheon. They took out one of the things that made him unfun to play against (No more point & click spears) and his ganks are going to be so god-like. High Hopes so far, hopefully he lives up to his hype once he lands on PBE later this week.

Aaaaaand his login theme isn't animated and its just cycling through all his (concept) art at the moment.

I mean, that's cool and all, but... Why(well I mean I know why, but still)? It would have been so fucking cool.

So when are you guys going to Reimagine the ranked system or how many bugs that the game has or how about the healing mechanics that make it that even if you build grievous wounds does nothing? I would love to see you guys/gals reimagine some of the stuff that really matters to the players.
