So I had a game against my friends as Pantheon last night. As I was playing against my friends, I tried extra hard to not die at the start, which worked well. I underestimated how useful simply farming is. The 2 opponents in my lane kept targeting me, but I'd just run back when they tried to get me, and keep spearing their face whenever possible. I'd then jump at them if they were on low enough health to get a kill.
I start with boots + 3 hp which is standard.
I then go for zeal as soon as possible, so I can get my passive block back faster and pursue enemies better (obviously fleeing too).
The next item is then mercury's treads, so I can again improve my speed but also gain some extra defence. In some circumstances I will get ninja tabi for the armour instead.
This is where I hit my problem. The next thing I aim for is phage, followed by sheen, followed by trinity force, but it seems that getting to trinity force is very very slow and I don't gain as much power as my enemies. I guess I could grab phage and then get part of maw of malmortius before finally getting sheen + trinity force. I will try other combinations, but trinity force is so useful for me as all 3 parts massively help me.

Umm,for me,Pantheon is revealing his true potential as AD Caster - build pure damage and crits,just DON'T BUY AS ITEMS. Anyway,Pantheon is well as AD Bruiser too. So,you can mix AD Caster and AD Bruiser items,and getting both tankiness and tons of damage. Choose boots between: Ionian Boots of Lucidity,Mercury Threads and Ninja Tabis. I'm taking Ionians in 70% of my played games,and I'm doing well. Take Mercs if you fight against heavy CC dealers. Tabis if their AD pains.
Next step - rush Manamune earlier as possible. Some people thinks this item is underrated on Panth,but trust me - it works. Just spamming spears everyday.
Next step is Frozen Mallet - giving you tankiness and FREAKIN AWESOME passive.
Next - our bread and butter S3 item - Black Cleaver. Well,on S2,i was building Youmuu's Ghostblade,but I know true potential of BC. You know,why,just look on BC stats.
Next step is Infinity Edge. I really love this item on Pantheon - giving tons of damage and instacrit (?) from your spears.
Last step is taking some survavibility - i prefer Guardian Angel. Just love the passive :3
Well,that was my build,wanna test it? :)
