Key takeaways

  • Pyke vs Lulu is an even matchup: Pyke wins 50.2% of 213 games, and the 95% range (43.6–56.9%) comfortably includes 50%.
  • Both champions' overall Support win rates predict 49.8% for Pyke; the result is within the margin of error of that, so this matchup mostly reflects the two champions' general strength.
  • Pyke usually wins the lane: 531 gold ahead of Lulu at 15 minutes on average (210 games with a 15-minute snapshot).
  • Pyke players pick Serpent's Fang far more often against Lulu: 5.8% of their other Support games, 20.2% here.
How we calculate this

Games: ranked Solo/Duo and Flex games on the North America server from the patch shown. Remakes (games under 5 minutes) are excluded.

A game only counts when Pyke and Lulu played the same position on opposite teams, so roaming, lane swaps within a team or a champion merely being in the same game never count as this matchup.

The 95% range is a Wilson score interval. Confidence comes from how wide that range is: within ±3 points is very high, ±5 high, ±8 moderate, anything wider low. Below 20 games a matchup is not classified at all.

Expected win rate combines both champions’ win rates in this lane (same games and filters) with the log5 formula: E = A(1−B) / (A(1−B) + B(1−A)). Matchup effect = observed − expected.

"What changes" compares Pyke's choices in this matchup with the same champion's other games in the same lane, and lists a change only when it is at least 3 points and statistically significant (two-proportion z-test, |z| ≥ 2, 20+ games).

Results are not split by rank: the sample per rank is too small for honest per-rank matchup numbers.

Best Pyke Build vs Lulu

Usual Pyke build (Support)

75.0% win rate · 24 games

Against Lulu

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 17 of 83 Pyke games against Lulu carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Pyke's standard build instead.

  • Pyke usually completes Umbral Glaive first, at 13.7 min (median of 123 games).
  • Lulu usually completes Ardent Censer first, at 12.9 min (median of 119 games).
  • Skill priority: Q > E > W — the same as usual.

Builds are ranked by the lower edge of their win rate range, not the raw win rate, so a build seen in a handful of wins never outranks a proven one.
