Based on 52 recent matches analyzed, Sion wins with a 53.9% win rate compared to Pantheon's 46.1%, giving Sion a 7.7 percentage point advantage.

Sion players can confidently pick into Pantheon and play aggressively from level 1. Look to establish lane dominance early through favorable trades and zone Pantheon away from CS whenever possible.
