Intro


Not much to say here. Desolation marks and quints for armor pen, as
Pantheon's skill set works very well with armor pen.
Armor per level seals and MR per level glyphs are much better than flat ones in dominion, as you'll be leveling up quickly (obviously).

I go R > E > Q > W
Heartseeker Strike is such a good spell in dominion. There will be a lot of team fights, so try to position yourself well to maximize the damage on HSS.
Use
Aegis of Zeonia to initiate and interrupt certain abilities.
Katarina's
Death Lotus comes to mind. It's fun sometimes if an AD
Sion decides to turret dive you with his ulti active. If you are both a relatively low health, wait until he pulls turret aggro and stun him. He will most likely be dead if you play your cards right.

Use




Starting off with a
Prospector's Blade and longsword provide you with a hefty amount of AD and health at level 3. Yes, you will be slow, but I usually burn ghost at the beginning to get to the speed buff so that I maximize my boosted speed time, which is more explained in the summoner spells chapter. If we cap top, I will stay until I have enough gold for my boots 2.
As a quick side note, check out the enemy team. If they have a lot of auto attackers or simply AD champs going top in the beginning, take a
Cloth Armor in addition to your
Prospector's Blade. This will help you survive that level 1 fight at windmill, and will help you get your
Ninja Tabi more quickly.
Your boots depend heavily on your matchup.
Ninja Tabi will be your bread and butter, as many champs you will face on dominion will either be auto attackers or bruisers. You don't need the ionian boots since you will already have enough CDR from your
The Brutalizer/
Youmuu's Ghostblade,
Frozen Heart, and masteries. You can pick up a pair of
Mercury's Treadss if you are facing a fair amount champions dealing magic damage, and / or a lot of champions with stuns and other forms of CC.
Finish your
The Brutalizer as soon as possible. It's a fantastic item for
Pantheon, and shouldn't be looked over. Don't upgrade it to
Youmuu's Ghostblade until you finish your
Frozen Mallet.
I grab a
Giant's Belt and
Pickaxe after my
The Brutalizer. I get the belt first for some more survivability, and then a
Pickaxe for more damage in between finishing my bigger items. If I simply finished my
Youmuu's Ghostblade or
Last Whisper, I would be too squishy for my own good. You want to be able to hold positions and stay in the fight for as long as possible.
Now kids, don't forget to use your
Youmuu's Ghostblade active! Using this in an important top fight will quickly turn the tide. You will be a damaging monster. If you get focused, that's ok. You will be tanky enough that you can still deal a fair amount of damage and give your teammates a chance to pummel some face.
With masteries and items you should be at 39% CDR!
Frozen Heart will help your matchup versus auto attackers. The mana isn't that important, but the armor will help you eat up turret aggro if necessary. It's one of the main CDR items in this build.

As a quick side note, check out the enemy team. If they have a lot of auto attackers or simply AD champs going top in the beginning, take a

When you need to...
- Chase down enemies
- Get to a capture point quickly when you either don't have
Grand Skyfall up or know you will need
Grand Skyfall in the very near future
- Escape
Other viable choices:

If you are playing draft pick and the enemies have a lot of auto attackers

Not as useful, but good for champions like

All the others aren't that imporant... make sure to take ghost, kids!





I don't take both because they are simply too expensive. I would prefer to have




(Really quickly, one tip is to shoot off your E four times before the game starts in order to proc your passive :D )
Grand Skyfall is one of the best spells on dominion. I use it in many scenarios, like the following:
This spell can change the tide of a fight. If your teammates are losing a fight at top, jump in on top of them. They will either stay there, fight, and take the damage, or run away and suffer more damage from my team.
Win-win.
Using
Garrison with
Grand Skyfall- these work very well together. I already described this up in the summoner skill section, but the jist is that you ulti in on two or so enemies capping your point, pop
Garrison if they try to fight you, and watch them die. It's fun.
The skill order in a fight goes Q > W > E > Q > E, and repeat. Make sure to use
Aegis of Zeonia on enemies like
Katarina when she pops
Death Lotus. Use your stun on a pesky
Sion when he pops his ultimate to focus him down and take him out of the fight. Using your
Aegis of Zeonia on carries then bursting them down with Q, E, and auto attacks is your main role. Assassinate them.
Roaming Pantheon!
When playing Pantheon, I will usually stay top and base myself around it. Don't be the only one there in case you need to
Grand Skyfall into a fight to take or defend a point! If you have an adequate number of people defending top point, you can roam. This means taking the healing pots on enemy sides, taking mid buff, and being in fights wherever you are needed. Pantheon's greatest strength is his ability to be where he needs to be, when he needs to be. Having the enemy not know where you are is quite scary, especially with tihs build!

- Defend a capture point
- Help assault a capture point
- Backdoor a capture point
- Escape from a losing fight (make sure to use AFTER enemies have used abilities which could disrupt it)
- Chase down a fleeing troublesome enemy (don't do this often)

I did lose two of those games, but you can't win every one. Dominion requires good team work which some people tend to lack...
I also came in first in every game except one, but that was a rough game. Truly rough.
I know that you can easily throw the game to get high personal score, but there's no point in doing that. The best solution is to try your best and attempt to secure the win.
