MetaBot Tips
  • Pyke secures less objectives than most champions. Your value may be better oriented towards helping other champions secure objectives.
  • Pyke tends to have a lower vision score than other champions. Make sure you are working to place wards and clear enemy wards.
  • Pyke has more base armor than most champions, which makes them excellent in the early game against attack damage type enemies.
  • Pyke has more magic resistance than most champions, which makes them excellent in the early game against magic damage type enemies.

Playing Pyke

  • Pyke is very fragile so don't be afraid to temporarily run from a fight. You can regenerate a significant amount of health from Gift of the Drowned Ones when enemies can't see you.
  • Hitting an enemy with the Hold version of Bone Skewer will always pull them the same distance. Use it in melee range to throw targets behind you.
  • The Tap version of Bone Skewer is much faster and deals additional damage.
  • A lot of your agressive spells are also your escapes. Make sure you always have a plan to get out of the fight.

Playing Against Pyke

  • Pyke regenerates a significant amount of damage he has taken from enemy champions, but only when you can't see him!
  • When Pyke is hidden nearby in his Ghostwater Dive, sharks will circle underneath your feet.
  • Try not to stand near low health allies. If Pyke executes them using Death From Below, you might be next on the list.
