Statistical Matchup Analysis

With 4.2% popularity, Pantheon constantly encounters meta-dominant Volibear (5.9%, 10th place out of 54 Jungle champions). Understanding how to play against this popular champion becomes essential for consistent Pantheon performance in the current patch. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Conqueror + Triumph combination (47.2% win rate) plus optimal itemization Eclipse, Black Cleaver, Sundered Sky, and Plated Steelcaps boosts your chances from 47.4% to 59.7% - potentially game-changing.

Survive and scale: Pantheon faces both matchup (47.36%) and farming disadvantages (5.16 vs 5.67/min). With a 0.51 CS/min deficit, prioritize safe farming and jungle assistance. Damage doesn't equal wins: Pantheon outputs more damage (671 vs 649/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup. The issue likely lies in survivability, mobility, or damage timing rather than raw output. Strong individual performance: Pantheon maintains better KDA (2.80, 23rd place vs 30th for Volibear), but loses the matchup overall. High KDA without wins suggests difficulty translating individual advantages into victory conditions.

How to Beat Volibear as Pantheon (Jungle)

Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.

Except for rare builds, Pantheon deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Volibear has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.

Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Volibear, ranking 43rd (versus 52nd for Pantheon) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.7 versus 2.8) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Pantheon Jungle versus Volibear Jungle matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Pantheon player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Volibear player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.

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.
