I was seeing those pyke trailers and i gotta say im preety exited.However ive been seing a lot of hate coming from this comunity for him.I think it has to be said without any sarcasm GJ RIOT!! He looks god dammed awsome he is very well designed in all the ways,and it will bring more suport mains on the table.
This board has a hard on for hating on any new champ so you'll probably be mass downvoted but I agree Pyke looks awesome.
It won't really bring anymore support mains to the table. It might just move assassin players to the support role, but don't expect them to start playing Lulu or Janna.
Honestly I am glad. Not because its a new champion with a good design, but it will stop people from autolocking in something stupid like Talon or Zed and "Supporting". I mean at least take the relic shield and upgrade it at least once.
I like the champion in many ways, but I'm worried about balance.
People will always hate on new champions no matter what. Ignoring it works quite well and until you try the champion for yourself, you can't judge if it's going to be "OP" or not.
Don't speak too soon. I'm waiting for him to be hijacked by another laning group. Remember how Rumble, designed as a poke support, suddenly found himself on top lane and the jungle. I'm expecting something similar to happen to Pyke - he'll eventually evolve into "yet another assassin" - probably ending up in the jungle (as Youmuus' Youtube stream today seemed to suggest). And us support mains won't even get a chance to play him in about a year or two.
Please let him stay as a support.
pyke is a fucking beast, hopefully i can play him mid but i would have no prob playing him in the support role
Yeah .... "support" mains.
Anything new in this game will always get criticism, and most likely reach the top of the "Hot" section.
Not sure how you got that from the community, all the threads saying positive things about Pyke gets upvoted and people saying negative things get downvoted. I think the community as a whole love pyke and think he is a shining example of the type of supports that can get more people playing the role. He is extremely unique in that lane.
It kinda bothers me, as a support main, that they had to bring this champion for people to play i t more. I mean, I don't like that maining support is already mainstream AF, but whatever. I do think it's just funny how these autofilled supports now think they will stomp with Pyke when im here with my Braum smilling: Come on then! He's not gonna be godlike/unstoppable.

His ult is borderline broken. As an assassin main and a darius/urgot/garen player i can say that his ult is easily abuseable as a pub stomper. He has a hook too, so really he just needs to hook, let 
do his thing and then press R. YOU CAN NOT play paper glass champs like sona against this guy. That being said id perma ban lulu if i play him as supp.
auto ban to prevent supports from inting. Then reports will flood in for banning him and people want to play him in ranked day 1. Will be good times.
I'm pretty excited for Pyke. I don't really care about Zoe, and Kai'Sa disappoints me to no end, but this guy, he's what I wanted.
it's nice to have another assassin
