4>2>1>3

Athena support has a weird leveling order to be honest. Maxing the taunt is generally a good play, but stacking prots does help extend the taunt duration as it is. The one provides some good prots assuming you hit someone with it, so its not bad survivability, and the 3 is just good damage, which you want to be a little threatening. Just feel it out. If you need more damage, get your 3, need more cc, get your 2. Getting blown up after dash taunt, level the 1 more and actually hit the dash.

Its dash>taunt, 1>2>3. Sometimes, you might ult someone first to get to the fight, sometimes you might ult someone during the fight to help provide some peel for your now vulnerable backline because you dashed into 4 as the lone tank you psycho. Basically, find someone that you want to prioritize (so like not their support or solo TYPICALLY) and get them with the taunt so your damage can do some free damage. This is how you exert mega pressure and win by bullying.

Athena is crazy strong suddenly, and people are still figuring this out, so you will likely be able to take people off guard with your damage. Get out there, taunt your foes back in and spear them through the heart.
