What are your recommended items for 
Pantheon
PantheonI'm not h4x but maybe I can save him some trouble.
Early game:
Spirit of the Elder Lizard, boots (mobility or defensive) and one or two offensive items. Usually this is The Brutalizer and Last Whisper but you can be a little more conservative and get Hexdrinker.Roughly half of your build should be defense.
Randuin's Omen and Banshee's Veil are pretty standard but there are alternatives or additions such as Locket of the Iron Solari, Guardian Angel, Maw of Malmortius, Sunfire Aegis, Warmog's Armor and Thornmail. You might have to use one or two of these to fill out your build depending on how tanky you need to be.Example:
Example 2:
That's how I build anyway. Not a big fan of most other offensive items like
Ravenous Hydra or crit items. They just aren't worth the price.
Thanks to The_Nameless_Bard for the sig!

Both are fine, I just feel like cleaver is pretty expensive (you have to save up ~1400 gold for the recipe :/ ). I usually just sit on brutalizer but I'm sure ghostblade and cleaver are both fine. I would probably go cleaver if I had 2 other physical damage champions on my team.
Even though Panth is ability-based, ghostblade gives a lot of armor pen and you can use the active to get in range for a stun or stick to someone after your initial combo.
Edit: It's worth mentioning that ghostblade is better early and cleaver is better late. It depends on how long you sit on brutalizer.
Thanks to Jovy for the sig!

It's really hard to use his ult right, it feels like when you're using it, it takes forever to land and you end up ult'ing wrong, but as someone who's been on the receiving end of a good ult way too many times recently, I think it's far from bad. I don't think Pantheon is super strong or anything, but he's more than viable, especially if you can place his ult properly, which I guess comes with practice.
