Statistical Matchup Analysis

With 2.9% popularity, Pantheon constantly encounters meta-dominant Lux (6.5%, 8th place out of 53 Support champions). Understanding how to play against this popular champion becomes essential for consistent Pantheon performance in the current patch. Optimize for consistency: Electrocute paired with Sudden Impact (65.1% win rate, 3.7% popularity) provides the stats you need, while the item sequence Eclipse > Umbral Glaive > Sundered Sky with Symbiotic Soles delivers 70%+ win rate against Lux.

Total map control: Pantheon dominates both the matchup and vision control (0.95 vs 0.79 wards/min). Your extra 0.16 wards/min create massive macro advantages for your entire team. Complete superiority: Pantheon dominates both win rate (53.0%) and damage output (651 vs 589/min, 2nd among Support). The 62 damage/min difference creates massive snowball potential. Intriguing anomaly: Pantheon wins the matchup (53.0%) despite a lower KDA (2.00 vs 2.40). This suggests you win through macro influence and clutch plays in key moments rather than consistent individual performance.

How to Beat Lux as Pantheon (Support)

The Pantheon versus Lux matchup as support 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. Meanwhile, Lux deals primarily magic damage (87.17%), additional magic resistance may be required.

An important advantage of Pantheon is superior vision control (ranked 12th among supports) (versus 48th for Lux), which provides better map control and safety for the team in important map areas. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.4 versus 2.0) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.

Key aspects of the Pantheon Support versus Lux Support 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 Lux, 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 Lux

    • Lux has powerful zone control abilities. Try to spread out and attack from different directions so she cannot lock down a specific area.
    • When retreating with low health, be prepared to dodge Lux's Final Spark, a red targeting beam fires prior to the main beam, so try to move to the side if possible.
