Tips for Playing as Nasus with Pantheon
Paying attention to last hitting with Siphoning Strike will have a large impact at the end of a game.
If you're solo, Spirit Fire is a great way to farm a lane. It can be bad if you're in a lane with 2 and you push too far. Find the right balance between Siphoning Strike last hits and AoE farming.
If you have low defenses, people will focus you down even during your ultimate. Try buying some survivability items even in your DPS builds.

Overall, Nasus sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Pantheon. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Pantheon helps Nasus perform poorer in ranked LoL matches. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is not very impactful.
When Nasus is an ally to Pantheon, he observes a barely noticable drop in his total damage dealt. This could demonstrate that Pantheon does not help protection for him to deal more damage or that his presence also helps increase the game's duration. Similarly, when Nasus is played alongside Pantheon on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays without Pantheon. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Pantheon.
Additionally, when Nasus plays with Pantheon on the same team, he typically takes a little less damage than when he plays alone. Receiving not as much damage could indicate that Pantheon does a decent job of covering Nasus during team fights.

Is Nasus better when played alongside Pantheon?
There is no perfect companion for Nasus that will no matter what be his ideal ally. Yet, Pantheon is a very typical teammate for Nasus. By locking into the same team as Nasus, he decreases their win rate by -0.8% to 49.5%. This signals that there is a weak strategic relationship between Nasus and Pantheon that results in them performing worse together than without each other.
Pantheon has a lower difficulty than Nasus. That means you don't need to be very careful when lining up Pantheon allies to fight alongside, as they will have to have a lower level of skill to be able to fight well with you.
Playing on the same side, Nasus players should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal physical damage. When paired, these champions can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.
In contrast, by pairing Nasus and Pantheon together, you probably will not be giving your other allies enough crowd control. Plan to include other champs on your team that offsets this relative hole in their playstyle.
Regardless of the skill of your Pantheon ally, you should focus on maximizing your income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well anyway.
