I saw a Mao top the other day, he built Tanky AP and just completely tanked the fck out of whatever our team could throw at him. Needless to say, our Pantheon got trashed by him and was more useless than Mao late game and we lost, despite me trying to carry hard.

I don't think panth shits on anyone anymore, especially champs that can run x/21/x, teleport and cloth+5

Panth just runs out of mana before you run out of pots, and when ganks happen you're more likely to get an engage on him than the other way around.

Cloth +5 works great if he starts say d sword but if he just goes flask and 2-3+ mana pots he can spam Q almost nonstop since it only costs 45 mana. If you take it even further and run 21/0/9 for alchemist, start 3 mana pots (maybe wait for a 4th pot so you can get 1 health pot), he can have 528 mana from pots/flask, which is another ~12 spear shots, not counting his actual mana pool and regen. A panth on my team did this the other day against a Mao and seemed like he was wrecking him, but Mao still so useful lategame even if he gets shat on in lane.

That's the problem with Panth nowadays. Even if he wins his lane early he still gets outscaled by pretty much every tank champ. If he doesn't win his lane early he's completely useless too. It's sad because Panth was one of my favorite picks in S1/S2.

I really don't like the meta in top lane nowadays. Shyvana is really good against Maokai though, you can rush BotRK/Visage and he can't do shit to you.

Garen shits on Mao compared to most tops. The silence is real, Mao loses every trade, and after a couple trades Mao is either zoned from experience range and much resort to using sapling to try and farm (which he doesn't have the mana for) or just going home before garen cries demacia again.

Also darius, but late game Dman a non factor, whereas Garen has tank steroids out the ass that make him impossible to deal with even if you lose lane.

And RaGe it's right, I'd you beating anyone top on Panth right now they doing it wrong.
