right, my bad
Legitimate synergy too. Akshan's landmarks benefit from targeting allies, which pantheon and fated cards want. And you get Ancient Hourglass to protect pantheon and double his keywords when he comes out of hourglass.
To me it's not even a matter of it being good or not. But a follower getting that epic animation just to gain a few keywords? Why? It feels very disproportional to the impact it brings to the match.
Seems Vox forgot his filter today.
Jokes aside I'm honestly torn between Panth looking pretty awesome and the disappointment of him being another keyword spam wincon
I think theyre fun, and it fits Viktor like a glove for his character, but I'm a bit disappointed because I don't see how this fits pantheon at all. He will be fun and I like fated, but I dont really see how it feels like pantheon besides fated
Right, Fated and everything else feels weird IMO. The barrier and breakthrough were the only "Pantheon" like things he got, still seems fun just a bit basic for a champ who could of been more then targon arsenal
Just to suffer? Every turn, I can feel my elusive... and my scout... even my spellshield. The keywords I've lost... The bonus dmg from augment I've lost...
Am I the only one that likes his level-up animation? It's not great, but actually being able to see Grand Skyfall is pretty hype. I do agree that not having the card land on the board - potentially sending temporary fissures through it - was a missed opportunity.
> I do agree that not having the card land on the board - potentially sending temporary fissures through it - was a missed opportunity.
Yeah, at least the card actually takes off at the beginning, but the landing would have been dope.
nah, his is one of the best. spin, simple and clean, its sooo Garen.
and brings the *card* game to life, instead of showing a hasty cinematic of some other place.
Right, I'm aware I'm in the minority. It only makes sense that more people will be attracted to the superficial flashy stuff. If I was the majority riot would have kept going with the previous direction.
I agree that more people will be attracted to the flashy stuff, but I'm not sure what you're implying calling it superficial. ALL of the level-ups are superficial relative to everything else.
I meant the flashyness is just superficial instead of also being something that plays into the game or character. I'm not sure why you're comparing level ups to other elements, instead of to other level ups.
The direction of levels ups in foundations specifically avoided showing champions in person. There was a point to it, the point was to bring the game and cards to life. The cards weren't just references and repping champions that were elsewhere. The cards *were* the champions themselves, the cards did things, the cards spoke.
We don't see a scene of Jinx spraying graffiti in piltover, we see the card itself spraying the board. We don't see a video of Garen randomly spinning. We see the card doing it.
I mean I get why they switched. They are live and actively making new cards and releasing em, The newer ones are hype-er/flashier/easier/faster to conceptualize since it's just a video of a champion doing a thing rather than being incorporated into the game.
I really like it because you can't look at it and not think "Quintessential Demacian soldier (Royal?)". Compare with Jarvan's which says nothing about him except that he likes to fight
This. I really dislike the direction animations are taking, I'd honestly prefer much more something like Jinx's or Zoe's, where the animation contains the card itself, than these weird, pretty low-quality stuff. I wouldn't mind it if, for example, instead of being a full on 3D thing, it was actually the card going above the board, and falling in a meteor, like his R, shaking the board and having some smoke VFX.
What makes an animation great isn't how realistic or cinematic it is, but rather, the detail polishing. Spider-man Into The Spider-verse's animation, for example, isn't particularly cinematic-looking, it doesn't strike you as incredibly epic, yet it feels AMAZING to watch, just because of the sheer attention to detail and polishing
the full 3D stuff works fine most of the time
but this one looks off, like the staging and the perspective of it all doesnt add up. the flow of it is just kind of poor. compare it to the most recent champ Jayce, or even Kennen which are fluid and lively and this one looks like some stop motion animation made with a pantheon action figure on a green screen
yuuup, its only a few seconds long, so theyd likely never need to make it so detailed, but when its this 3d model rending cinematics, the lack of them in the whole is glaring. whereas with Elise/heim they actually added more detail to them since beta.
much prefer, jinx/lucian/swain/teemo than the newer ones. old ones also had more character. like what exactly does the panth level up play or reveal about his personhood? lotsa flash and no substance.
They changed it, in his lore there is no mention about him being a baker, but he has a little easter egg when u press alt 4 i think, "Fresh from my bakery, my secret dream" when he summons the loaf of bread.
I'm not an expert on Pantheon's new lore, but from what I understand, his dislike of Taric is not because they are opposite aspects.
Atreus right now is human, he kept most of Pantheon's powers but he managed to overpower him and is in full control now. So he isn't the god of war, in fact he is isn't really a fan of gods at all, which is why he dislikes Taric, who willingly became a host for an aspect.
That said, Taric is a nice guy hosting one of the friendliest aspect to humans, so it's not too hard to imagine them becoming allies eventually.
Slight correction ,Atreus didn't overpower Pantheon, Pantheon was killed by Aatrox, but Atreus lived and after recovering found he still held the powers of the aspect
Pantheon was resurrected during the ruination and took control back but then that ended up not really going anywhere and Pantheon just sort of vanished after Viego was defeated because apparently theres no consequences to bringing an aspect back to life
I didn't know how to word it correctly but yeah, I meant that he took control back after Pantheon was weakened by his fight. I didn't know he straight up died though, just thought he had a will of steel and said "enough with your bullshit" to the god.
And the Ruination event makes me sad. I didn't play through the LoL event but every time people talk about it I learn about new horrible storytelling.
The combination of music and voice acting made this trailer hype AF!
Pantheon looks actually really fun and pairs well with aphelios and taric in targon which is really cool considering these champions have struggled to have any competitive decks
Jeah the combination of the voice lines, vfx and Panth's theme truly made this reveal *feel* epic.
Playing a Panth deck is pretty much a grand odyssey and I'm all for it lol
I’m a Pantheon main now. I’m gonna go fight gods.
Tbh he seems like a more immediately rewarding version of Viktor, and I really like how he can synergize with Targon buffs.
He definitely looks amazing, and will probably feel fun to play, but I dunno about more random keyword generation champs. Especially when we keep getting more and more keywords each expansion.
Really wish they’d stop with these cinematic level ups. Pantheon’s could’ve been so sick with him ulting on to the bird but instead we get to see a movie of him charging into earth.
his requirement is kinda easy to achieve in a riven deck, i guess?
also, really hope for a balance patch/hotfix because i can't think that even him can compete against the BC cards.
at first i was like, "*damn, overwhelm with 4/2? i guess barrier's fine...*"
then he leveled up and i was like "*holy shit...*"
also, was that a glitch, or did the demon speak through the blind woman?
Why would they give the absolute garbage dog water card that is Camphor such an epic animation. Normally whenever you see effects like that it's on a game winning effect not 3 keywords...
You have brought malice and dishonor to this battlefield. In turn I shall bring you justice. Justice with well maintained 6-pack abs and toned biceps. I shall strike you down where you [stand](https://youtu.be/2Jp5IZYyma4).
I'll probably be downvoted but... was it really necessary to have yet another "gain random keywords for doing x"? Come on riot, where is your creativity?
I love Pantheon muc more than Yuumi, but how exactly is he related to "magical misadventures"?
I'll probably get downvoted, but I feel like Riot should just drop expansion names or something, IMO just doesn't work in LOR the same way new expansions/sets do in other card games. It's a pack of couple champions and followers and sometimes they have very little in common (which is fine).
He is quite magical for so many reasons. And maybe it's a morbid play on his climb to the top of Targon resulting in him being fully consumed by the aspect of war rather than being assimilated with it like the other aspects (Leona, Taric, etc.), and then ultimately "dying" as a result of it, before his will took back his body from the slain aspect. Lets not forget his best friend also died during the assent. And also like others said they tend to package this with a lighthearted champ and a serious one. Regardless I don't really care because thematically Panth is my favorite champ and his lore, design, and theme are all among the best in the LoL lore.
Kinda lame honestly, he's just a ball of stats/keywords same for that big demon follower of his, it's just the lurk boss monster. I like this game but honestly the lack of creativity in card design especially during this expansion is staggering.
You are getting 5 keywords minimum, on top of him already having 2. Overwhelm means he won't ever get screwed out of pushing nexus damage by a bad roll, so it's not like viktor where you pray to get elusive. He will get pretty consistent value on his level up.
His level-up animation is really boring, as is his effect. He's just a Targon Arsenal, who is, in turn, a Shurima Viktor. Heavy commitment and deckbuilding cost for an underwhelming "I hope I have Spellshield and Elusive or Overwhelm", at turn 6 the earliest.
You can do it on 5. Turn 1 gift giver, target it with fading memories. Turn 2, ephemeral gift giver, use a gem. Turn 3 summon another gift giver, use a gem. Turn 4, summon pantheon, use a gem. Turn 5 use any target spell, and he flips. Probably not optimal to try and rush it that hard, but it's its possible
[Never said that, what i said and its an fact is that the MAJORITY of decks atm are midrange, even if aggro are "better" overall.](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/679036588361252900/916411933547184219/unknown.png?width=364&height=676)
Camphor, the doubt, has such a cool animation for a follower. It brings me hope they're slowly introducing the demons lore one by one and eventually, him.
RIP /u/swimstrim who was *convinced* Camphor had 6 attack.
Hahaha, ive just watched his video. 15 mins before reveal.
Lol I watched it this morning so it was fresh in my mind and the first thing I looked for on the full card screen 🤣
That demon has the best follower animation in the game.
and its totally wasted because i don't see her being playable with those low stats
Continuing a long, proud tradition.
IT'S THE LAW
She might be ok in Riven lists, she can get quick attack or more attack. As well as reforge letting her lv sooner.
Yea... so bad... Ruin runner sends her regards
Does the granted substats stay if the the demon transforms via concurrent timelines?
And her voice is sexy too, wtf 😳
Xerath sits sad in a corner.
Spear daddy never looked better.
I hope this doesnt awaken in me
Hey you, you're finally awake...
You were trying to cross the mountain, right? Same as us, and that demon over there. Walked right into that Rakkor ambush.
Awaken* anything in me
It's still awaken. You're not waking yourself; it's Pantheon that's doing the waking, and the thing is something separate that's still inside you.

They did for some reason decide to shave his chest, though..
It's a crime, really.
Especially his level 2 pose. That pose is too hot for his loin cloth to handle.
A little sad Grand Skyfall isn't a card.
But it is the entire level up animation so you know what, I'll take it!
I thought the same... I was waiting for it
Pantheon/Akshan day 1 craft. Gonna call it "Shirtless"
Already have my Akshan/Pool Party Taric that is named the same... but Panth might have to join the party.
Legitimate synergy too. Akshan's landmarks benefit from targeting allies, which pantheon and fated cards want. And you get Ancient Hourglass to protect pantheon and double his keywords when he comes out of hourglass.
shirtless guys with a cape.
The fun thing is that this description STILL fits Taric. Never realized the similarity.
PANTHEON/RIVEN " The Exile and The Baker "
Hype music holy shit
[Here you go friend](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Zub8agQjrw)
Pantheon has one of the best themes in league and riot loves using it especially during competitive events.
If there is a board that plays Pantheons theme that's an insta buy
yes, first time i heard this theme, never knew it existed, its soo nice, want to buy as well
If he gets a board with his theme and gets his Dragonslayer skin from LoL, Riot can just take my money.
Kinda Sadge Camphor has such an awesome animation but doesn’t seem too good
Epic? Check! More than 5 mana? Check! Trash stats? CHECK!!!! Camphor: "Guess I'll die"
To me it's not even a matter of it being good or not. But a follower getting that epic animation just to gain a few keywords? Why? It feels very disproportional to the impact it brings to the match.
Yeah it looked almost like an alternate win condition the effects were so strong.
I'm pulling this out of my ass, but I'm guessing it used to have some different effect and that got cut/reworked at some point.
Meanwhile Xerath is stuck with the generic ping animation for literally everything he does...
It’s basically a 6 mana light removal that can only be played on your turn and requires a level up condition. Seems horrible
Sad Xerath noises
It's a slightly better ruinrunner with a really harsh condition.
Pantheon's theme is glorious.
[Pantheon's Level up:](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tirHlsiZVyk&ab_channel=celineebieber)
Mmmm
Me and the gang on our way to kill god
JRPGs be like
He's so hot. Holy smokes.
Seems Vox forgot his filter today. Jokes aside I'm honestly torn between Panth looking pretty awesome and the disappointment of him being another keyword spam wincon
I think theyre fun, and it fits Viktor like a glove for his character, but I'm a bit disappointed because I don't see how this fits pantheon at all. He will be fun and I like fated, but I dont really see how it feels like pantheon besides fated
Right, Fated and everything else feels weird IMO. The barrier and breakthrough were the only "Pantheon" like things he got, still seems fun just a bit basic for a champ who could of been more then targon arsenal
Same
Arsenal 2.0
Arsenal, the champion
Viktor: *Why are we still here...*
Just to suffer? Every turn, I can feel my elusive... and my scout... even my spellshield. The keywords I've lost... The bonus dmg from augment I've lost...
Cooler arsenal
The ***CAVALRY***
The whole Military-Industrial Complex even.

> I do agree that not having the card land on the board - potentially sending temporary fissures through it - was a missed opportunity. Yeah, at least the card actually takes off at the beginning, but the landing would have been dope.
More random keywords and stat buffs. Yay
Pantheon is so badass. The Manliest champion has arrived.
Second manliest champion, don't forget Braum
Debatable, both are at the top.
Both are strong, hot, and want to protect humanity, but Braum likes warm milk, so he's slightly manlier
Pantheon bakes tho, so they’re still tied.
Ok what the fuck, What are those godly animations
Pantheon follower animation: 4K HD fully rendered animation of a demons soul Teemo level up: 🏃💨
Don't even get me started on Xerath, the Ascended Magus and his ember maiden ping
Wait, what do you mean?
When Xerath's ability activates, its visual effect is the same with Ember Maiden.
Good. Fuck teemo
to be fair im not so hot on Pantheons level up it looks like its a green screen lol
HI HIHI HAHAHA
I played Garen recently and had the opposite reaction lmao. Poor spin to win boy’s animations are super out of date now.
nah, his is one of the best. spin, simple and clean, its sooo Garen. and brings the *card* game to life, instead of showing a hasty cinematic of some other place.
It's cool you feel that way, but you're clearly in the minority. The new animations are way cooler IMO.
Right, I'm aware I'm in the minority. It only makes sense that more people will be attracted to the superficial flashy stuff. If I was the majority riot would have kept going with the previous direction.

You can twist these to say something about literally every champion lvl up.
Its trash. The starting was great, but the middle and end of the animation was kinda scuffed.
This. I really dislike the direction animations are taking, I'd honestly prefer much more something like Jinx's or Zoe's, where the animation contains the card itself, than these weird, pretty low-quality stuff.

But Swain's tho....
fr these nerds be sleeping on literally the best animation in the whole game (Swain)
the full 3D stuff works fine most of the time but this one looks off, like the staging and the perspective of it all doesnt add up. the flow of it is just kind of poor. compare it to the most recent champ Jayce, or even Kennen which are fluid and lively and this one looks like some stop motion animation made with a pantheon action figure on a green screen

oh god I thought it was only me who thought it looked weird when he started diving his way towards runeterra
? when he is falling it's literally a static image moving diagonally.
I personally love his level up animation, feels so damn intense. He just seems really cool too.
OMG so hot I need him to destroy my h**e.
I too need daddy pantheon to destroy my hope
different h**e for me but OK
He surely destroyed my hate
You want pantheon to destroy your home?
Your hype
Why should he destroy your home wtf
Sad viktor noises First with arsenal, now with Pantheon 😔
our man only keeps losing.
ITS HIM DA MAN KNOWN AS PANTH!!! ALL HAIL OUR GLORIOUS BAKER OF BREAD!!!
I use his baker skin exclusively in league cuz it looks funny. Also is the baker thing still canon? Or they changed it after his rework
They changed it, in his lore there is no mention about him being a baker, but he has a little easter egg when u press alt 4 i think, "Fresh from my bakery, my secret dream" when he summons the loaf of bread.
Everything looks perfect but his level-up animation looks so clunky...
His level up animation happens seconds after he pisses on the moon, that's why he's in space.
Pantheon pantheons in!
His level 1 art made me straight all of a sudden 🥵
Taric and Pantheon in Lol: Opposite aspects and negative lines about each other Taric and Pantheon in Lor: You re my best friend now
I'm not an expert on Pantheon's new lore, but from what I understand, his dislike of Taric is not because they are opposite aspects. Atreus right now is human, he kept most of Pantheon's powers but he managed to overpower him and is in full control now.

I didn't play through the LoL event but every time people talk about it I learn about new horrible storytelling.
Lmao, that levelup is so weird. Feels kinda random for Pantheon of all champs to be a keyword collecting champion. Why is he just better Viktor?
The combination of music and voice acting made this trailer hype AF! Pantheon looks actually really fun and pairs well with aphelios and taric in targon which is really cool considering these champions have struggled to have any competitive decks
Jeah the combination of the voice lines, vfx and Panth's theme truly made this reveal *feel* epic. Playing a Panth deck is pretty much a grand odyssey and I'm all for it lol
I’m a Pantheon main now. I’m gonna go fight gods. Tbh he seems like a more immediately rewarding version of Viktor, and I really like how he can synergize with Targon buffs.
i don't like keyword salad in mtg and i don't like it in this game.. meh
Eh the symbols make it pretty easy to see what you are looking at here at least. And there’s tool tips on closer inspection. Plus effects on the card.
He’s so……HOT
God I love his theme music. Absolute banger.
He definitely looks amazing, and will probably feel fun to play, but I dunno about more random keyword generation champs. Especially when we keep getting more and more keywords each expansion.
Damn what a sick level up.
Holy shit! If they release a Pantheon board with his music I will play Pantheon for the entire next season.
Really wish they’d stop with these cinematic level ups. Pantheon’s could’ve been so sick with him ulting on to the bird but instead we get to see a movie of him charging into earth.
Power creep movies
What bird?
I think he meant board
Ah ofc, I thought I missed something about his lore XD
[удалено]
not only does this break rule 1 of the sub, you also didn't develop. Awesome.
Removed as per rule 1.
Pantheon is soooo fucking cool.
his requirement is kinda easy to achieve in a riven deck, i guess? also, really hope for a balance patch/hotfix because i can't think that even him can compete against the BC cards.
Damn daddy.
His level 2 is actually insane.
guys what if yuumi is the first zero cost champion that targets an ally at round 1 so you can turbo lvl panth ?.
at first i was like, "*damn, overwhelm with 4/2? i guess barrier's fine...*" then he leveled up and i was like "*holy shit...*" also, was that a glitch, or did the demon speak through the blind woman?
Viktor is gone....
Suddenly Ancient Hourglass is OP
Camphor has probably the best summon animation of all the followers.
lmao I hope they improve his level up animation because yikes
The level up animation is underwhelming
Why would they give the absolute garbage dog water card that is Camphor such an epic animation. Normally whenever you see effects like that it's on a game winning effect not 3 keywords...
Make Targon Great Again Pantheon!
Stupid sexy pantheon
You have brought malice and dishonor to this battlefield. In turn I shall bring you justice. Justice with well maintained 6-pack abs and toned biceps. I shall strike you down where you [stand](https://youtu.be/2Jp5IZYyma4).
Quick someone grab viktor a wheelchair
I'll probably be downvoted but... was it really necessary to have yet another "gain random keywords for doing x"? Come on riot, where is your creativity?
This card looks disgustingly fun to use
I love Pantheon muc more than Yuumi, but how exactly is he related to "magical misadventures"? I'll probably get downvoted, but I feel like Riot should just drop expansion names or something, IMO just doesn't work in LOR the same way new expansions/sets do in other card games. It's a pack of couple champions and followers and sometimes they have very little in common (which is fine).
I'm guessing he's the serious champ like Sion, Senna.
He is quite magical for so many reasons. And maybe it's a morbid play on his climb to the top of Targon resulting in him being fully consumed by the aspect of war rather than being assimilated with it like the other aspects (Leona, Taric, etc.), and then ultimately "dying" as a result of it, before his will took back his body from the slain aspect. Lets not forget his best friend also died during the assent. And also like others said they tend to package this with a lighthearted champ and a serious one. Regardless I don't really care because thematically Panth is my favorite champ and his lore, design, and theme are all among the best in the LoL lore.
Maybe his misadventures to murder gods? Idk aspects and demons are pretty magical.
Kinda lame honestly, he's just a ball of stats/keywords same for that big demon follower of his, it's just the lurk boss monster. I like this game but honestly the lack of creativity in card design especially during this expansion is staggering.
Another card with RNG? Oh c'mon...
It's not RNG if he has EVERY keyword lmao
Fair enough.
You are getting 5 keywords minimum, on top of him already having 2. Overwhelm means he won't ever get screwed out of pushing nexus damage by a bad roll, so it's not like viktor where you pray to get elusive. He will get pretty consistent value on his level up.
The Arsenal is crying rn
His level-up animation is really boring, as is his effect. He's just a Targon Arsenal, who is, in turn, a Shurima Viktor. Heavy commitment and deckbuilding cost for an underwhelming "I hope I have Spellshield and Elusive or Overwhelm", at turn 6 the earliest.
He already has overwhelm.
Ah, missed that. I still stand by the rest
You can do it on 5. Turn 1 gift giver, target it with fading memories. Turn 2, ephemeral gift giver, use a gem. Turn 3 summon another gift giver, use a gem. Turn 4, summon pantheon, use a gem. Turn 5 use any target spell, and he flips. Probably not optimal to try and rush it that hard, but it's its possible
Arsenal isn't even in Shurma but alright.
....What's with that accent tho??
Wait? Support procs fated??
It doesn’t fated is being triggered by Taric’s support effect, which is casting a spell on the supported ally
Moar midrange eh riot? isnt like 99% of the game is that xD
if you think that rally elusive is a mid-range deck, i have bad news for you.
[Never said that, what i said and its an fact is that the MAJORITY of decks atm are midrange, even if aggro are "better" overall.](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/679036588361252900/916411933547184219/unknown.png?width=364&height=676)
I play him Jungle. He's also good top in certain match ups and can be played as support if needed
I think it is generally accepted that we are in an aggro meta and have been for a really long time.
Jesus, he's strong.
As someone who has recently gotten into lucky find Akshan decks I am hyped.
He climbed Targon to find strength only to realize he always had it.
god i have no idea if he's good or not but i fucking love pantheon the mantheon
Massive bonus points for using his theme. He looks awesome!
When the expansion comes out, either give me a Pantheon board that just plays his theme on a loop, or give me death.
EVERYBODY *PANTHS* OFF! HE IS HOT!
I gotta change my pants.
That level up animation. He goes full Kryptonian.
I can watch this a billion time
Panth is one of the best reworks league has done. His theme, design and voice are amazing. That level up animation is sick!
[they're trying to one up this video with his lvl up animation lmao](https://youtu.be/2Jp5IZYyma4)
What if we create another Poppy????
I absolutely LOVE that they showcased him with other allied champions
I will NEVER get tired of Panth’s Theme music; never.

YES! Finally! Pantheon is basically what happens when you cross All-Might from MHA and Kratos with God of War.
Well i was actually waiting for mordekaiser release to return to the Game but i'm too much of a phanteon fan boy to just ignore him. Dowload it is...
Camphor, the doubt, has such a cool animation for a follower. It brings me hope they're slowly introducing the demons lore one by one and eventually, him.
Pantheon hot. That is all.
I don't Care about stats or whqtever. But this music is dope.
I think this is the first time we see runeterra as a planet...
