To mid or not to mid.

[quote=lifebaka]If you're going mid, you'll probably be against an AP caster, so flat MR glyphs can help a lot to win early level trades.[/quote]

[quote=Xiaowiriamu]I usually activate mine at lv 3 when pantheon is at his best to combo, and the runepage you have is good, but maybe get AD marks. Also you can save elixir till whenever you feel its necessary, or if you want to start fighting your opponent[/quote]

[quote=Aeacus11][quote=Xiaowiriamu] Pantheon one of the few champs where...if you played 100 games with it, ranked or normal...more than likely you'll win 60 of those 100 games. Why? Well hes viable anywhere... including support (which i've carried hard sometimes playing him support). Another reason is his early game dominance is hard to counter, even against malphite you can wreck his face. Only problem with pantheon, which everyone knows is his late game, but this is where you just build tanky and sort of aim to going support and protecting your carry, who will do the damage. When playing top/mid start with Red elixir and mixture of pots, like Josh suggested, and then if you're dominating stack some long swords, and gank other lanes, never sit in your lane if you're winning, or even losing, just gank gank gank when your ultimate is up. As for mid game, start building tankier, and when it comes to late, start to sell your damage items and replace for more support/tank items as generally even with 2 damage items, it simply isn't enough. [/quote] Hm, Panth really viable anywhere in S3? I haven't picked him up at all since S2 (I didnt play during the broken TBC days of preseason). Interested to give him a whirl again - love champs that can go anywhere. But I just felt like he got beat up top lane so hard in S2 after the first 4-5 levels, and especialyl when other champs got ulti. Jungle S2 i loved pantheon, but feared he was hurt by the additional difficulty of the jungle. You really think he is viable in ranked top and jungle now though?[/quote]

[quote=Xiaowiriamu]My friend is currently in Diamond league with 100 pantheon games, 60% win ratio. So yes it is viable top and jungle. I've also played pantheon support few games, and won... and when i say won, i mean, me...as a support pantheon, going 11/0 and causing havoc, since i can freely gank mid anytime i want and offer some decent CC. He is viable, just give him a go and you'll see. Just don't do anything stupid like pick him vs a Rammus or tanky team (such as singed top, jarvan/taric combo and diana/swain/ryze mid)[/quote]

[quote=Forgottenduty]Yes but if you go top with AD marks and your opponent starts with a cloth armor this might terminate your damage right?[/quote]

[quote=Pheyniex]you can prob ask for a change of lane, but i like arpen reds.[/quote]
