How to Play This Matchup
1
Power Curve
Malzahar is strongest mid game while Pantheon peaks early game. Play around your power window.
2
Mixed Resistances
Malzahar deals AP damage while Pantheon deals AD. Build resistances accordingly — don't stack the wrong type.
3
Sustained vs Burst
Pantheon wants to combo and disengage. Malzahar wins extended trades. Don't let Pantheon get a clean rotation — force long fights where sustain wins.
4
Range Advantage
Malzahar has range advantage. Pantheon should look for short trades when Malzahar uses abilities on the wave. Freeze near your tower and wait for jungle help or an all-in window.
5
Exploit Malzahar's Weakness
Malzahar's main weakness: QSS removes R, early game weak, immobile. Play around this to maximize your advantage.
6
Malzahar Win Condition
R suppress priority target, voidlings push waves, passive blocks burst
7
Pantheon Win Condition
W point-click stun, empowered Q poke, R global roam
