How to make pyke not suck that much like he does now.

Recast- mostly his E. What is pyke's E can be recasted? What if you want an earlier stun for team fights? What if you wanna go in with E and use Q to make enemies go behind you? if you can recast it then that combo would work perfectly. Pyke's E is way too slow and easy for dodges. This is a simple suggestion. THough small I think its just the thing for him.

Pyke is S tier, I don't understand how you think he sucks.

He sucks because he isn't unique to league of legends. His ult is the same as darius. And how hard Riot forced pyke to be meta is just fucking sad. an AD support with stealth. Totally not forcing into meta so hard.

If he's meta, then by definition, he doesn't suck. You're throwing out contradicting points.

You say he sucks because his kit isn't unique, yet in your original post you're talking about reworking abilities to make him stronger.

Furthermore unless you have another account somewhere you've never even played Pyke according to your match history.

I meant gameplay and design not popularity. There's nothing that makes him unique and his playstyle unique.

Excuse me? Apart from him being a support assassin and being unable to build health, have you ever seen a champion with one of the following abilities?

  • Gray health regeneration if unseen
  • Charging hook
  • Dash followed by a delayed stun
  • AoE resetting execute which duplicates kill gold

And I'll mention again, he's a support assassin. You call that "nothing unique"?

gray health is basically Rengar andTahmKench A charging hook isn't that unique alone. a dash followed by a delayed stun is basically worse version Gragas body slam and Camille hook shot. Those ideas are the exact same but are executed differently to fulfill a champion's fantasy. his ult is identical to Darius . You can make it shit like giving gold on assists and AoE its still identical to Darius no matter how hard you try. We already had a support assassin Nidalee . Also there's nothing that makes pyke truly supportive. There's a difference between an assassin played support and an actual support that directly buffs your team.

If you only focus on the aspects that are similar to other champions/abilities while conveniently ignoring those that aren't, no champion is unique.

Do you not understand what meta actually means?

That doesn't make him popular, it makes him strong.

The delay is so that he has actual counterplay to his stun. Otherwise it's just an instant stun+dash.

Fam, say that to Gragas Camille Shen idiot.

Gragas has issues as well, but it's a much shorter range.

Camille's is slow enough that you can see her coming and dodge it.

And Shen isn't an assassin, he's a tank. He's not going to use his taunt (which is weaker than a stun, by the way) to burst you.

Also, insulting me isn't really going to help your case at all.

Considering how much Pyke is played in pros.... I doubt he's weak.

However they all build him as a resistance tank with high CC and an execute... where as most people in solo queue seem to rush a Duskblade....
