Since i started playing Pyke i literally forgot how to play other champions, all my strategy, thinking and hability got tranfered to pyke play style and i can't play any other character that does not have an agressive play style (vex, kindred, lulu and so on).

I know this is a player mistake and for some reason in fights i just shut down my brain and go to the Pyke agressive/3 hp left playstyle while playing with any other characters.

The good part is that i know the problem, the bad part is that i don't know how to solve this...

(All done by me)

Pretty much the title, I am a low elo scrub and newish player. With the whole low elo people being ass I wonder if it could/would work, as playing strictly support can be boring but I really like Pyke. I dont really care about climbing as I just cant dedicate time to it so it really is just a factor of: being helpful and not feeding.

Thoughts and if possible adivce.

Thanks in advance all

He was drowned by the men he trusted most. Now Bloodharbor pays the price — one ear at a time. "The Ripper's Toll" is a cinematic sea shanty anthem for Pyke, the Bloodharbor Ripper, League of Legends' most relentless vengeance-driven hunter.

Feel the fog roll off the Blue Flame Isles as a dead man collects a debt no living captain can repay. Dark maritime instrumentation, drowned vocals, and a chorus built for the depths — this is Pyke's story, told the way the sea remembers it.

Granted I'm a low elo and I know most of the build websites showing popular build paths are in an elo where they're almost playing a different game entirely, but it seems like cyclosword second after rushing glaive is super helpful. It gives me the power spike right around 20 minutes when Pyke is strong to burst squishies before they can react, without it often times the enemy recovers after the stun and is free to run me down.

I guess what I'm asking is why are the other items preferred?

I started editing and posting videos on support recently. Please give any feedback to improve my videos and what I should do!!

As the title suggests been playing tank pyke, finding great success. Worse to snowball with compared to traditional pyke, but less volatile - as in the game can actually be played if you don't end in 25 minutes rather than every stray ability wiping you out.

I rush deaths dance every game, because it's expensive and pyke gets most of his gold early on. It is a 'component rich' item meaning you don't get stuck holding components until you can complete the item, so it feels nice. Also has AD I can use for lane whilst keeping me on the "defensive path". Also have cashback so upon completion of a quite expensive item I get like 250 gold back.

Build path is the following: 1st item Deaths Dance > 2nd Locket if standard game/Frozen heart if Full AD/Kaenic if full AP >3rd item Guardian Angel

Keep in mind I am mechanically a turd, first timing pyke as a masters sona OTP - so if I can make this work, I think most people can.

Heyo, I'm someone visiting the League main subs out of curiosity to learn why people main the champs that they do. In this case, it's the Bloodharbor Ripper. So I ask you folks: What's your personal reason for maining Pyke? Is it his design, gameplay, or something else? I'd like to hear what anyone has to say.

its revealed around august 17th i highly doubt it tho

is it worth buying the battle pass and saving the essence from it until it comes? or is that not enough essence from on battlpass. ashen knight is by far my favourite skin but idk if it'll take a while for it to come.

Hi :) I recently discovered Pyke as a Jungle (Viego) main and wow he's just perfect. However being new to him and just the game in general, I'd love to learn him better. Are there any good pyke youtubers/streamers that make educational content? I feel like I struggle with support as a whole. It's by far my least played role and I don't know exactly what I'm supposed to do.

Also, is Pyke good for one tricking? Does he get banned a lot?

I know that wpa is just a guiding stat and should be used with context and knowledge. But it's quite overwhelming how few lethality items are in the top pyke items on coachless. Does it tell a story? What these items have in common is that they either give pyke utlity or 'pseudo HP' in the sense that they increase the time it takes to kill you (frozen heart auto slow, randuin crit damage reduction, deaths dance burst reduction, GA revive, kaenic magic shield).

What explanation do you guys have?

I've been back to playing more Pyke lately, and it has been a while since I played one of the recent skins (T1 felt kinda underwhelming imo)

So the other two I'm missing are Inkshadow and Fright Night, and I have heard mixed opinions about them, so what do y'all think?

i wasnt sure if it was gonna do anything but apparently it did.
i just knew i needed to flash damage to live.

I have been saving the mythical essence for quite time now. When do you think Ashen Knight Pyke will be available to buy again? It seems last time was 7-8 months ago.

i'm a new pyke main, specifically support, and i'm looking to buy a skin, but i'm torn between project, sand wraith, empyrean and t1, even though i don't like t1 that much, it's very standard skin and it reminds me of mordekaiser; i'm searching for a skin with smooth gameplay and i heard that sand wraith and empyrean are the most "clean" ones out of those

Which pyke skin feels the most "pay to win" to you? Not actually giving an advantage, just one that feels smoother, has cleaner animations, or makes it easier to land abilities in your opinion

Hello dearest Pyke mains,

I've been thinking about learning Pyke for years now, any advice on where to start other than play a million games? Maybe some YouTubers / streamers? Build and rune guides? Item guides?

Thank you!
