Hello, everyone!

I just bought Pantheon, and the baker instantly became one of my favorites. However, I believe a lot of players look down on him...i don't know why, but they just do. And because of that, I tried to imagine a new suggestion for Panth that would make him a bit more respectable without being deemed over-powered and such. So moving on...

Aegis of Zeonia:


 * Aegis of Zeonia could target ally champions so that Pantheon could leap to them (without injuring them) and then activate his Aegis Protection.

Why would I want that? Pantheon can use this to block an incoming high physical damage targeted against his teamates in tough situations where he doesn't have his Aegis of Protection ready, and there's no minions around to autoattack, or to use any of his other abilities on. For example:


 * The enemy Caitlyn charges her ult against your teamate Garen who is on very low health. The moment Caitlyn fires, you leap near Garen and activate Aegis Protection, blocking the shot, and saving his life.

This could serve well for teamfights and anti-ganks. It also adds a tip to Teamwork and skill usage, granting Pantheon more utility and defense.

Now, as for setting a limit to this skill, you can't use it on ally minions, wards, or towers. This is so that you cannot retreat. Retreating is very stupid since you won't benefit from the Shield you gain afterwards. Also, you're just overpowering him if he gains an escape ability...

Pantheon's Grand Skyfall:


 * If Pantheon charges his ult and cancels it, he gets to retrieve about a third or more of the mana cost and set the ult's countdown to 18 seconds instead.

I'm okay with everything else about this ult, but seriously: the guy channels energy for a few seconds and cancels it, so where does that energy go? Don't let it all go to waste...

This skill has a tactical style to it, and so there are many different ways of using Grand Skyfall, and it'll have even more uses if you're not so afraid to cancel it anytime...

Bye!

(finally...)
