Favour timeline — who owns each window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1PantheonHis passive blocks your Q autos and he Spears you for free — you have one ability and no kite chain to answer.
Level 2PantheonComet Spear out-ranges your short Q hop and chips you before Dream Dust stacks — you can't trade.
Level 3PantheonHe gets W point-click stun: it cancels your Q move-speed kite and chains an empowered Spear all-in you can't escape.
Levels 4-5PantheonFull Q rank means nothing when his stun pins you the instant you enter Dream Dust range — your burn never compounds.
Level 6PantheonLilting Lullaby is too delayed to interrupt his point-click W, so he still wins the 6 all-in solo.
First itemEven / skillYour Liandry's/Riftmaker W burn finally matches his flattening spear damage — the lane is genuinely even here.
Two+ itemsLilliaPantheon hard-falls-off while your DoT deals percent-HP and your R sets up roams — you out-scale and own the map.

Early game (levels 1–5)

Pantheon's passive blocks your Q autos and last-hits, so stepping up to sweetspot a Q just feeds him a free block and a Comet Spear in your face — you cannot win an auto-trade at level 1. His W is a point-click stun: the instant you commit a Q hop he stuns you out of your move-speed and your entire kite identity dies. Last-hit from max Q range, never walk into Spear range to start the Dream Dust burn, and accept you concede these levels.
