Guide to Synergizing Nocturne and Pantheon

Tips for Playing as Nocturne with Pantheon

Use Shroud of Darkness in tandem with Paranoia's dash. Your opponents may panic and waste a critical disable on your spell shield.

Using Paranoia at a critical moment is well worth it even if you cannot use the dash.

Duskbringer isn't only an offensive ability. It can be used to close distance out of combat or escape from certain death.

Advice to Understand How Pantheon Will Play

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.

Is Nocturne better when played alongside Pantheon?

There is no ideal synergy for Nocturne that will no matter what be his ideal ally. Yet, Pantheon is a very typical companion for Nocturne. By locking into the same team as Nocturne, he drops their win rate by -0.7% to 51.1%. This clearly indicates that there is a weak strategic relationship between Nocturne and Pantheon that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Pantheon has a lower difficulty than Nocturne. That means you don't need to be careful when arranging Pantheon teammates to fight alongside, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Fighting cooperatively, you should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal physical damage. Combined, these champions should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Conversely, by bringing Nocturne and Pantheon together, you probably will not be giving your other teammates much magic damage. Make sure to bring other champions on your team that helps cover this relative hole in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of your Pantheon ally's skill level, you need to focus on increasing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well anyway.
