Guide to Synergizing Swain and Pantheon

Tips for Playing as Swain with Pantheon

While laning, try to use Death's Hand's piercing damage to damage opponents from a safe distance.

Vision of Empire is quite difficult to land on its own, look for skirmishes around the map where enemies may be distracted or crowd controlled so you can land it more easily.

If you're having trouble rooting an enemy with Nevermove, try throwing it at opponents when they are near their minions so the explosion surprises them.

Demonic Ascension may make Swain very hard to kill but he's pretty easy to get away from. Try building items that can slow opponents to keep them in range if their mobility is overwhelming.

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.
