How to win lane as Pantheon against Azir · 43.16% win rate over 95 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Pantheon | You out-brawl Azir at melee range level 1 before he has soldiers stacked. |
| Level 2 | Pantheon | Level 2 he still can't escape your point-blank Q and auto poke. |
| Level 3 | Pantheon | Level 3 your full kit and E soldier-block beat his short-cooldown Q trades. |
| Levels 4-5 | Pantheon | Levels 4-5 you gap-close through soldiers and W-stun a dashless Azir. |
| Level 6 | Pantheon | Level 6 R Grand Starfall punishes any Azir who walks up to shove. |
| First item | Pantheon | On one item each Azir stays fragile and immobile, so your all-in still wins. |
| Two+ items | Azir | Two-plus items Azir kites your combo with soldiers and R disengage, flipping the lane to him. |
Levels 1-2 you win the melee-range brawl: walk up under his tower cheat, soak a soldier with autos, and force him to burn Q early. He has no escape yet, so every time he steps up to last-hit he risks eating your point-blank poke.
