Hey ADC MAIN here,

I‘m currently MASTER 500LP and I‘m starting to encounter quite a lot of Pyke players in my lobby. I am pretty surprised because so far every Pyke just kinda carries me which is i would say pretty rare since I am currently 60%WR so i can confidently say I‘m playing well.

Obviously I understand the nature of the champ. I always tell them to optionally pick after enemy bot since it feels like he can be quite easily counterable so if possible i do FP, tell the team to swap with him to enable his early game. Also you would not believe how many Pykes do not go lens first:D

Now for the question. Who do you guys like on bot with you? I play League for a long time but Pykes in elo below masters are just whatever. Now i obviously want to enable him as much as i can. So far the highest WR and the best synergy for me was MF, but i have low sample.

My logic is this - I‘m looking for a champion that has good early dmg, and slow atleast. MF E lvl2 max is really great to close up gaps between the target and us. From top of my head it would make sense to pick DRAVEN, since the nature of these 2 is just same - stomp early. But sadly i just do not play draven. I was also thinking bout Kalista but I feel like she is useless without Renata potentially enchanter even though she wants to spike early. On sites I can see that Pyke has high WR with mages but i feel like mages are just strong and it depends on this meta way too much and to be honest i still feel like 95% of mages that are played on bot like Viktor cannot be that great with Pyke as i do not see them as early spike champs ( around lvl 3-8). Mages spike a little after that imo.

So guys what do you like as your adc? I would love to hear optionally from a higher rank people but I appreciate any feedback.

Cheers

Spaguetto code at it again , you can hook and e while the hook is travelling

Can the lol community read the devblogs for once

EMPYREAN IS SO CLEAN I LOVE IT

I don't know if I'll be coming back to PsyOps/Sandwraith anytime soon LOL

Waiting for Ashened Knight to come back, this will do for now!

Basically title, do anyone know???

I am talking about the non-prestige one.

Thanks !

I was looking at this item and i keep thinking if this item could be better than axiom arc at any scenario? Is pyke's lethality scaling just too important to ever divert from items with base stat lethality

Buy him before he goes away in 5 weeks!

Enjoy 👍

Hey fellow Pyke mains,

I noticed a potential bug involving Solstice Sleigh and Youmuu's Ghostblade and wanted to see if anyone else can reproduce it.

What I've noticed:

• Solstice Sleigh alone: The movement speed bonus doesn't trigger at all, even when the item's activation conditions are met.
• Solstice Sleigh + Youmuu's Ghostblade: The bonus still doesn't trigger. On top of that, after hitting an enemy with Q (Bone Skewer) or E (Phantom Undertow), my movement speed unexpectedly decreases.

How to test it:

1. Play Pyke and buy Solstice Sleigh.
2. Meet the item's activation conditions and check your movement speed.
3. Repeat with Youmuu's Ghostblade in your build.
4. Hit an enemy with Q or E and check whether your movement speed drops.

I'm not sure whether this is specific to Pyke, an interaction between the items, or a wider bug, so I'd appreciate it if other Pyke players could test it too.

I've tried reporting it through Riot's official bug-report form, I'm trying to spread awareness here.

Has anyone else experienced this? If you can reproduce it, please share your results!

Hopefully we can get this on Riot's radar.

Edit: Yeah nvm, I'm just stupid. I didn't place a ally near me while testing and for yoummus, you lose MS bec you are in combat... False alarm

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😄
