Why Ezreal is favored

Pantheon must get close to land his point-targeted stun, while Ezreal can pressure him from outside that range with Q and reposition with E. That range advantage gives Ezreal more chances to chip Pantheon down before he can start an all-in.

Measured in High Elo: Ezreal wins 1.4pp more often than expected over 1,219 games.

How to play as Ezreal

Stay outside Pantheon's W range and use Q to chip him when you have a clear shot; don't step forward just to trade autos before he has spent his engage.

Let the wave come toward your side and farm safely through Pantheon's early all-in window; if he commits W without a follow-up kill, use the breathing room to poke and push the lane back.

Pantheon's W is a 600-range dash and stun, while Ezreal's Q reaches 1,150, letting Ezreal threaten him from farther away.
