Kayle vs Pantheon

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Prioritize surviving Pantheon's early lane pressure and avoid extended trades before level 6.
Focus on safely farming to reach level 6 and item thresholds where Kayle's ranged attacks and (R) become effective.

Trading pattern

Only trade when (W) stun and empowered (Q) are on cooldown.
Use (R) proactively to negate Pantheon's burst trades and punish his cooldown windows.
Use (Q) slow and (W) heal to sustain through short trades and avoid giving Pantheon easy engages.

Danger windows

Be most cautious before level 6 when Pantheon can stun and burst with empowered abilities.
Avoid extended trades when (R) is down, as Pantheon’s burst becomes more lethal.
Watch for Pantheon crashing waves and roaming after level 6; hard push and punish his absence.

Early game

Avoid taking trades before level 6 when Pantheon has empowered abilities and stun available.
Use (Q) to farm safely and slow Pantheon if he tries to engage.
Stay near your tower or in safe positions to minimize risk from Pantheon's burst and stun.

Power spikes

Respect Pantheon's level 2-3 spike with empowered (Q), (W), and (E); avoid all-ins during this window.
Kayle's level 6 spike grants ranged attacks and (R); use this to stabilize lane and punish Pantheon’s cooldowns.
Kayle's late-game DPS and (R) invulnerability are key; protect uptime and fight front-to-back in teamfights.

Win conditions

Survive early pressure and reach level 6 to unlock ranged form and (R) for safer trades.
Use (R) to deny Pantheon’s burst and punish his engage cooldowns.
Scale into late-game DPS thresholds and focus on front-to-back fights where Kayle can safely output damage.

Tip: For Kayle vs Pantheon, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Top lane check.
