| Level 1 | Aurora | Pantheon's early poke and stun threat give him a slight edge in the level 1 trade |
| Level 2 | Aurora | Same early trade dynamic continues at level 2 while your kit is still coming online |
| Level 3 | Aurora | Your E slow comes online at 3, letting you punish any missed stun decisively, favouring you |
| Levels 4-5 | Aurora | Continued dominance as your ranged poke outclasses his melee engage attempts |
| Level 6 | Aurora | Between Worlds lets you dodge or punish his Grand Skyfall landing, keeping 6 in your favour |
| First item | Aurora | Item power widens your ranged damage advantage over his melee-reliant kit |
| Two+ items | Aurora | Late-game your mobility and range keep him from threatening you directly in skirmishes |
Pantheon's Comet Spear poke and Shield Vault threaten you at levels 1-2 if he lands the stun, but as a melee-range all-in champ he's still fairly easy to disengage from if you respect his vault range.
