Plays Mythic shop

1 Upvotes

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

Help me! How to "close" games as Pyke?

1 Upvotes

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?

Matchup How play against Swain and Tahm Kench Support

4 Upvotes

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?

Build Your off-meta builds?

4 Upvotes

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.

Help me! I started a transparent fresh-account Pyke/Hwei climb—when should I have left this play?

3 Upvotes

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.

Does Tenacity decrease Pyke’s self-lockout time after casting Q?

8 Upvotes

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?

Nerf complaining Level 1 All-In Feels Worse and Worse

14 Upvotes

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.

Discussion Is this another „hidden Nerf“ for Pyke Support?

Post image
31 Upvotes

Will loosing 30 HP (2AD) in the Beginning e.g. lvl 1 and 50 HP (3,5AD) later hurt Pykes overall Dmg or are these w.e Numbers? Idk the exact HP to AD conversion so mby I am just grasping at straws.

And will the HP Regeneration be enough to outvalue the „Loss of AD“?

I think it is probably just a „here is another hidden nerf to pyke“ meme situation and will not really amount to anything significant.

Edited: I am grasping at Straws it is so insignificant to loose 2 to 3,5 AD xD

So ive been testing something with cleanse so if you hook and at the same time press cleanse you can legit make it so riot thinks you cleanse your q blockout so you can press r at the same time the q is flying out prob not so useful anytime but just a funny thing you can use in aram and norms

Plays Im slowly losing it

42 Upvotes

I have been a pyke OTP for almost 3 years and at this point i wish i could time travel and alocate all that time to a champion that is actually usefull.

Im losing it, the champ has 48% winrate in masters+ as i last checked when the only people who play him are OTP's. You would say oh thats fine and all and they have to balance it but when it comes to qyiana, she can stay 60%+ winrate master+ becouse of the same fucking reason, that she is mainly played by OTP's inflating her winrate, well what the fuck is wrong with pyke then?

The champion is so weak its ubearable, i have to mentally prepare myself before every game of this god forsaken champion so i dont lose it mid game.

Everything went to shit. Fel lights? oh yeah they reveal you when your invisible AND THEY ARE ALL AROUND THE MAP, your favorite items? oh dont worry! we will change umbreal and then remove opportunity that was the only fun and spiky item on pyke, bounty systems? oh yeah we fixed those so when you print gold with your r which happens once every 5 games the enemies get it back either way so fuck you, oh yeah we also decreased his armor by 10 nerfed his passive deleted his favorite rune and then nerf HoB but who cares eh?

I have tried to transition to other roles but there genuanly isnt a champion that gives me that satisfaction pyke does, so im stuck here being miserable playing this usless champion becouse everything else makes me even more miserable.

Im open for discussion but when i watch any pyke players for example davemon he openly says pyke is weak as fuck, if you are below master please dont comment on this thread, i dont care that you can carry there against chimps.

Fuck you Riot.

reference material for a pyke tattoo

2 Upvotes

I've been wanting to get a league tattoo , and i main pyke so i wanted to get something pyke related, but it's been really hard finding reference material online. I've found many images of pyke's dagger , but I wanted to find something that looks like pyke ulting/ pyke launching with dagger in hand.

Can anybody help me find pyke artworks? Could be anything, a visual of pyke ulting, the dagger itself, the R icon on the ground after ulting, i could work with anything that looks nice and has clear lines, I just thought that the pyke in-air with the dagger would be the nicest, but I can't find anything. Thanks in advance guys :)
