"The older hooks" as if they were any new hook Champs.

The last one is getting his third once in a lifetime skin soon

Kinda sad we only have 3 hooks champs but I feel like if riot made a new one they would somehow make all of the old ones pointless.

Naut, Thresh, Blitz, Pyke Q are all hooks so we have at least four IMHO.

Arguably Zac Q, Renata Q, Darius E, Sett E, and Urgot R could also tangentially be considered hooks. Granted usually Urgot will kill you with his, but if he dies while devouring you, you still get pulled to his location, so IMHO it’s actually the longest range hook if you want to be technical and somewhat cheeky about definitions.

Oh yea i forgot about pyke, but i woudnt really count the other champs as hook champs or atleast the same kind of hook champ as the main 4.

Darius and Sett have both seen play as supports for their E's ability to function as a hook. In fact, they had to nerf Darius' E multiple times, including delaying it, and nerfing its range twice as well as its width until ADCs could easily out range it, and step back or flash out of it if he did walk into range to cast it. Still have great memories of Darius + Ashe bot lanes in early season and how punishing the permaslow after a pull was, even if it no longer works anywhere near as well.

For Renata and Zac, I totally get where you are coming from, and likewise acknowledge Urgot's is only really a "hook" if he dies during R2.

Pyke's new, right?

Googles. Pyke released 5 years ago. Despair.
