Champion Changes

VERY VERY IMPORTANT UPDATE! Pantheon's ult now has it's channeling time reduced to 0.5 seconds! So it's not all a shameless nerf due to the drastic range decrease.

Visual Comparison Between Live and PBE For Pantheon's Ult Range

LIVE

His visual indicator (the secondary, bigger one) doesn't fit in the screen, so we made 2 screenshots in order to show the size:

PBE

On the PBE the secondary indicator almost fits in the screen:

Pantheon

  • Aegis of Zeonia [ W ] - Stun duration is now 0.5/0.8/1/1.3/1.5 seconds (changed from 1 second at all ranks)
  • Grand Skyfall [ R ] - Range is now 2000/2500/3000 (down from 5500 at all ranks)
  • Grand Skyfall [ R ] - Channeling time is now 0.5 seconds (down from 2 seconds) 
  • Grand Skyfall [ R ] - Cooldown is now 150/125/100 Seconds (down from 150/135/120)

Rengar

  • Bola Strike [ E ] - Added to the tooltip: "This slow diminishes over time."
  • Thrill Of The Hunt [ R ] - Added to the tooltip: "While stealthed Rengar gains 20 % Movement Speed when moving toward enemy champions." (replacing "his next attack will cause him to leap")

Item Changes

Bonetooth Necklace

  • UNIQUE Passive - Mementos of the Hunt: Kills now grant 1 trophy (down from 2)
  • 20 Trophies bonus tooltip now says: "Thrill of the Hunt's Movement Speed while stealthed is doubled." (changed from "Rengar gains the movement speed bonus of Thrill of the Hunt while he is stealthed.")

Minor Atlantean Syndra Visual Changes

The main thing is the color of her clothes - it's a bit lighter green now:

    Riot has stated that Pantheon's ult now has 1.5 seconds off it's channel time

  • #68 IONDragonX

    He stated its Going down by 1.5 sec. Not its going to be 1.5 sec

  • #65 TreeBurrow

    I don't see this as a major nerf to Pantheon and IMO it was a justified change... Sure, it's a reduction in range on his ultimate, but you're still able to by-pass wards and gank from behind the enemy laner, you just have to travel a little further to do it now...Most of the time Pantheon needs to be near his team regardless and only jumps a short distance anyway...

    The click-and-stun ability needs to be changed too, just like Fiddle's Fear or Rammus Taunt... Besides, it received a late game buff... Just like Taric, you now need to choose whether it's more important to CC the target for a little longer or to do more damage...

    Click-and-stun abilities deserve to be weaker than skill-shot stuns...

  • #64 smartaleccomment

    That Pantheon ult, well there goes jungle Panth

  • #62 Dom_kaio

    that range is even more pathethic than nocs at lvl 1. sure don't nerf vi that still is 100X stronger....

  • #63 kyuce4

    I thought they were gonna do something cool like lower the casting time to make it more of a combat ult but no, just straight up nerf. cause you know, pantheon so stronk that he needs nerfs

  • #77 RamserX

    Wrong, it's the same as noc's at lvl one, both are 2000, however noc's scales more

    Noc is 2000/2750/3500

    new panths is 2000/2500/3500

  • #61 GunPerfect

    The level one panth ult is gutter trash now, he's slowly jumping i few meters away

  • #59 ExoiPugx

    standard rito fucking pantheon to the underworld, #irelia treatment

  • #58 DarkWolf

    It's pretty impossible for Panth to solo carry, honestly he isn't even played as much as like VI and Elise/Kha, he is usually pretty awful late game.

    Pointless nerfs.

  • #57 sten_gah

    The Pantheon changes are the worst possible. They do not fix his core issues, while nerfing his only assets. Great job Riot!

  • #53 Djangonigga

    RIP in Piece Pantheon

  • #60 agustingbdq

    rest in peace in piece pantheon

  • #52 gualdox

    yay, they murdered panth while giving nothing back i mean if they shorten the range of his ult they could at least shorten its cast time or something since that panths ult now has the same range as nocts ult but nocts ult is instant once you lock the target you cant miss him and it also denies the enemy team vision which... oh and they also nerfed his stun duration by A LOT a 0.5 stun is too small. they should have only shipped one of the nerfs. anyway this is on the PBE so i hope they realize that they are olafing him and lessen the nerfs a little 

  • #67 samwel93

    they did it's a whole 1.5 seconds faster which is actually pretty huge

  • #51 Kazaanh

    Wooo finally Pantheon got a dash !

    What a nice buff I didn't expected that from Riot. Their balance team is a really good, 1k people working as much as they can to make us happy.

  • #48 Refdow
