You need two things.

1) A top laner which can fight back

2) A ton of armor

You can usually beat him with Yorick, Olaf or Nunu. Each of them has a low cooldown targetable spell. Nunu can throw snowballs at him and can restore health with Q. Olaf has axes and can fight back, also true damage hurts Pantheon very much, no Pantheon builds health first. Yorick will simply outharras him. Shen is the same.

Pantheon can't restore health on any other way and he must buy lifesteal or potions, that is the key to beating him.

Also, his kit deals physical damage mostly, there is some magic damage but it is beyong and consideration. Just stack armor and he can't hurt you.

If you picked Darius, Teemo, Volibear or even Vayne, prepare your anus. I buried dozens and dozens of Vayne top wannabes, it was not pretty.

But I never managed to win against Yorick, never.
