Guide to Countering Pantheon as Lissandra

Tips for Playing as Lissandra against Pantheon

Lissandra's abilities are shorter range than those of many mages. As a result, buying items that offer both ability power and defense, like Zhonya's Hourglass and Banshee's Veil, can be a great choice to help her both survive and deal damage.

Casting Glacial Path and then running in the opposite direction will leave your enemies uncertain which way you will actually go.

You can instantly use your ultimate on yourself by pressing the self cast key and the ultimate key at once (alt+R by default).

Advice to Win Against Pantheon

Pantheon's Aegis Assault makes him invulnerable from the front. Get behind him or wait it out.

Grand Starfall gives several seconds of warning before Pantheon arrives. Use this time to get out of the way or to form a plan to deal with him.

Be careful near Pantheon if your health is low - a thrown Comet Spear executes low health enemies.
