From my understanding, Pantheon's progression has been this: Originally, he was ment to be an assasin, with his high base speed, burst capacity and low health. However, in an attempt to reduce his ability to rape everyone, they reduced his superburst, placing him in the role of an AD caster. Introduce more champions that he could still faceroll and they reduced his damage/ modify his skillset yet again, leaving him more a fighter than the original assasin.

Now, Pantheon is an assasin with assasin stats with a fighter's skillset. He jumps in, rips someone a new asshole, then dies immediately afterward unless you build tanky as fuck. wut.

How many people think that Pantheon now should be buffed into relevance with boosts to his base stats, particularly health and maybe a change to his abilities.

Since hes actually a very powerful top against people who are primarily AD whom he rips with his in-your-face beatdown, his passive is OK.

My change other than more HP and base armor would be MAYBE changeing his Aegis of Zeonia, since nearly every other fighter has some kind of dash, boost, escape, why not change it from a single target flash-stun, to a dash? Something kind of like Shen, where he dashes forward and hits the first champion he collides with using his shiled and stunning them, same effect as his current, but different method of delivery. So this way he can not only jump into a fight, but have an escape.

Now I know some of you will rage at this. He wont be that same kinf of assasin who can jump on a specific person and kill them outright, but hey, when was the last time he could? These changes would actually give him some kind of solid role instead of some weird crapshhot hybrid champ that he is now and get him back to ripping (kind of) like he used too.
