Viktor
Can and will outscale you. Gets practically free poke and is strangely tanky. You NEED to kill him, but it is extremely hard to do solo. This is made even worse since you probably want to go Dshield to survive his poke. Honestly ban this guy or hope your jungler helps. Too much work to beat a guy who will just scale up anyways. If you do want to try and beat him, you need to play aggressive once you hit lvl 2-3. He has long range, but his cds are decently long. He will always put down his stun trap when you go on him, to stun you back and escape, you might want to e right after stunning depending on what abilities he has up. You need to chunk him enough to the point where he is in flash-ignite kill range. Only then will you be able to play.
Darius
Pantheon works great with anyone that draws attention from him or can engage for him. Pantheon is pretty squishy, but can dish out a lot of damage. With a strong frontline, Pantheon can carry.Not all synergies will be listed here, but essentially if the enemy's focus is on someone else, rather than you, you're golden.

Champion Build Guide
Midtheon: Pantheon Mid Guide (In Depth Matchups)
By Lindroganti
Why Midtheon?
Pantheon mid is a great choice for someone who wants a strong early kill potential, and great roaming abilities. Your Empowered W makes trading extremely easy in midlane, and your E keeps you safe. With some fancy footwork, you can be a menace in the midlane, because the only thing that holds Panth back is how easy he is to cc.
Who am I?
I'm Lindroganti, a current plat player and a Pantheon Enthusiast. This champion busted me out of silver straight to gold with a 12 game win streak and then took me to plat. I love how simple the champ is, but how high the skill ceiling can be. Especially since, with our roaming ult, we can impact the game with great ease. I may not be the greatest Panth player, but I can promise to help make your experience with Pantheon mid as smooth as possible.
Guide Explanation
This guide is mainly matchups so far, as I believe that is what most people need. Eventually I might make a full guide, but there are plenty of guides that explain Pantheon's mechanics well. I will mainly only explain the things I do differently, and that I believe work. Make sure to read the notes on items, runes, and spells. Those notes explain a lot of the things I do, and how and when you should do them.
Explaining Swifties
You may have gotten confused to see Boots of Swiftness in the boots section. Allow me to explain. The main counter to Pantheon is cc, however the duration is not the issue. It's the fact that it stops your engage with W or causes you to get poked. Therefore tenacity won't really help as much. That's why I think swifties are a good pick. You can't be cc'd or poked if they can't hit you. I believe swifties are a high skill item you should take, as it gives you the potential to dodge and mitigate a whole lot more damage than any other boots choice if played well. It also helps to run down fleeing foes, and to get into range of enemies that try to space you out. Not to mention getting you to lane and helping you roam faster, as well as being cheap.
Why I Like Alacrity Over Tenacity
I think alacrity can be considered in situations where the main issue of the cc is not the duration, but the fact that it stops your engage at all. A matchup like Syndra isn’t hard because you get cc’d forever, but that you get pushed in the first place. At that point I like having alacrity to gain passive stacks faster, and have a little stronger all ins. In no way am I dissing tenacity, but I feel like I can get more consistently out of alacrity. The goal is to not get cc’d at all, as it pretty much stops you in your tracks regardless, and thrive in the situations where you aren’t being cc’d, rather than mitigate the effects by a small margin.
