How to Beat Jayce as Pantheon (Top)

The Pantheon versus Jayce matchup in the top lane is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.

Except for rare builds, Pantheon deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Jayce deals mainly physical damage (78.71%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Jayce, ranking 13th (versus 57th for Pantheon) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (1.8 versus 2.0) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Pantheon Top versus Jayce Top matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Pantheon player to maintain constant pressure on Jayce, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.

Pantheon tips:

  • Mortal Will activates after 5 spells or basic attacks - plan your way through fights to allow you to activate it more than once.
  • Whittle the enemy down with Comet Spears before you jump in.
  • If an enemy is going to get out of range of your Aegis Assault, you can recast the spell to immediately fire the shield slam.

Playing Against Jayce

  • Jayce can attack in melee or at range. Pay attention to his stance and weapon color to know how he is going to attack.
  • If you see Jayce drop his Acceleration Gate, be careful, he is probably about to cast Shock Blast.
  • Jayce is strong in the early game. If he gains the advantage, play defensively.
