Key takeaways

  • Current data slightly favors Neeko, but the sample is too limited for a strong conclusion: Pyke wins 44.4% of 54 games (95% range 32.0–57.6%).
  • Both champions' overall Support win rates predict 50.9% for Pyke; the result is within the margin of error of that, so this matchup mostly reflects the two champions' general strength.
  • Neither side reliably wins the lane: the average gold difference at 15 minutes is 2, within the margin of error (54 games).
  • Pyke players pick Long Sword + Health Potion + Health Potion + Glowing Mote + Stealth Ward far more often against Neeko: under 0.5% of their other Support games, 3.8% 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 Neeko 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 Neeko

Usual Pyke build (Support)

83.3% win rate · 12 games

Against Neeko

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 5 of 26 Pyke games against Neeko 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 13.9 min (median of 30 games).
  • Neeko usually completes Hextech Rocketbelt first, at 12.8 min (median of 36 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.
