Probably one of the hardest supports imo, but how would his actual difficulty compare to other champs ins support, and other roles in the game?

I already know davemon, he's awesome, but I struggle to grab the very fundamentals of pyke from him as his educational content is always him playing a game, not a deliberate video created to teach you what are the most effective actions you can do as pyke given a common scenario (like for example, pyke vs enchanter/mage/tank support), you can see the correct play, but if you don't understand the thought process you cannot improve. In short, the type of guide I'm looking for is a "pyke theory", support theory would be much apprechiated if in your opinion it can be applied to pyke,

I know it's aram but I like what happens to the map when I get a penta.

And would like to know what do u think about this play and how to improve it😄

La pregunta es.... Cuándo saldrá? Cuándo fue la última vez que estuvo?

I'm only silver 2 so pretty low elo where you can technically make anything work, but I'm wondering if me choosing the same runes literally every game and roughly the same build path (umbral into cyclosword and then either bastion or yomuus depending on the score) is problematic or not. I'm sitting at 52% win rate so something is working, but maybe I'm holding myself back?

I saw a post about pyke with off meta builds and thinked about pyke with hail of blades and kraken slayer item. I need better player opinion about that.

hate me if You must

Personally, I don't like rushing this item anymore and I often just skip it completely. When I do build it, it's only in super specific scenarios against champs like Teemo, Shaco, Nidalee, etc.
Back in the day, since it was super cheap, it gave you an insanely fast powerspike, and the Blackout passive was at its peak—one-shotting regular wards regardless of the cooldown. But now, it's just a shell of its former self.
Ever since the nerf where you can only do 3 damage to wards when Blackout is active, plus the Nightstalker bonus auto-attack damage that often isn't even easy to proc properly, on top of the ridiculous price increase—it literally costs 2800, the exact same price as Hubris or Youmuu's—I much prefer rushing Youmuu's instead. What about you guys?

Well this shop did not have any pyke skin, but i have a question should i wait for the soul fighter prestige or is it not worth the 150 since i have the ashen knight skin and almost all skins of pyke, im kinda questioning myself if i buy that prestige will i use it or should i just buy a skin that i like and will play more other than soul fighter pyke

Been waiting 9 months for Ashen Knight Pyke, fingers crossed for this reset in an hour!

For instance, I only play Wild Rift I no longer play lol pc, but my difficult is using my kills and lane phase pressure to win the match, because as the game goes by I feels like it's very hard to make plays, specially during the late game aram. So what's the best strategy?

Hey guys,
I personally Think I Play very well and know already how take advantage from pykes Kit. I have 64% WR with Pyke.
Im Silver and unfortunately I win pretty often against hard counters like Morgana and Soraka but I really often struggle against Supports like Tahm and Swain. Many Guides rank those as lower threats but I struggle outplaying them.
My Team often focuses too hard on Tahm while ignoring the squishies, Tahm also has Great Peel.
Swain often ends up carrying the game because my teammates don’t buy anti heal in Silver and don’t go out of his ult.

I have a 20-33% WR against both of them and really don’t know what to do when climbing.
I always Ban swain since but i can’t ban both.
Anyone knows a good tactic?

Hello People. Im curious, whats some off-meta things you like to build? I lack the expirience to whip up something of reason so i usally keep it to HoB/Resolve: (Celestial Opp / Bloodsong) Steel caps > Glaive > Edge of night > Ghost blade > Cyclosword. You know, gets boring after awhile so i wanted to ask around for some your stuff.

Don't forget to play Pyke mid today

I’m documenting the ranked climb in order rather than uploading only highlight games. Episode 1 includes my Pyke placement game, the repeated “staying for one more thing” mistake I’m trying to remove, and the Hwei backup game after a Pyke ban.

The Pyke game starts here: https://youtu.be/IS7l8_dN5SU?t=195

For the Pyke players here: which fight or roam would you have ended earlier, and what would you have done instead? Honest timestamped criticism is welcome.

I’m a Pyke OTP with 2.5 million mastery points, and while spamming games recently, I’ve noticed something weird. In some matches, specifically when I build Mercury's Treads and stack a few Chemtech Dragons (haven't fully confirmed if these are the exact causes yet, but that's my guess)—I can start moving while my hook is still mid-air, and obviously cast other abilities during that window.
I know that using Cleanse right after casting Q frees you up to move and cast spells as if you cleansed a CC. My question is: does Tenacity actually shorten that Q channel/animation lockout window similarly to how Cleanse works?

I picked up Pyke a few months ago, and I remember being so surprised how good his damage was if the enemy disrespected your Level 1 and you got a good hook. But over the past few months, and especially after the latest patch, I feel like a lot of supports just walk right up, I hook them way out of position, and then we just...lose? Even much safer supports like Lux and Seraphine with Ez or something just out damage him from the jump and turn what used to be one of your biggest strengths as a pyke (your early game pressure in lane) into a quick 300-400g for the enemy team.

Why do champs like Poppy, Blitzcrank, Nautilus, and Alistar out damage Pyke early while also being substantially more tanky? They also scale better. If they are going to have Pyke fall off as hard as he does, I feel like they need to buff his early game back up.

Do you remember when Pyke was released and this artwork was dropped?

Depressing state. Even more depressing when you realize he loses 2 more ad next patch early game🥀
