Graves vs Pantheon Matchup Summary

The Graves vs Pantheon matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 31 recent matches analyzed, Graves wins with a 58.1% win rate compared to Pantheon's 41.9%, giving Graves a 16.1 percentage point advantage. Graves dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights.

Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Damage
796Graves
630Pantheon
