I don't get the argument that Pantheon can be built tanky without AD and still do damage. Assuming Pantheon had no bonus AD at all, his combo of W>E>Q would be doing a total of 534 damage, at level 18. Now lets compair that to a few other champions that tend to build very little AD.

Lets start with someone like Jarvan; he tends to be built mostly as a tank. At level 18, if he did his full combo of E>Q>R, he would be doing a total of 940, assuming his flag hit the target. If the flag didn't hit he would be doing 700 damage, and all this is not counting his passive.

For fairness lets look at another champion that doesn't build much damage, like Leona. If Leona went E>Q>W>R on a champion at level 18, it would be doing 990 damage.

Now all these are the base numbers before resistances, of course. Also, other champions like Leona or Jarvan can easily hit their ultimate, meaning another source of damage. So over all I'd say no, Pantheon cannot be built tanky. He shines early game where his damage can hit like a truck, and he has to use that early game to transition into late game.
