So according to your own Metrics Pyke should of gotten nerfed by now Riot
12% pick rate, 65% ban rate. You are literally nerfing champions for less.

Unfortunately riot doesnt care about soloq until worlds are over. It's why they gave cait her unnecessary buff and are buffing riven this patch

As if they were trying to improve their own game :P Just get ready for Season 10, you'll see how things can go even worse.
Too busy nerfing champs because of pro play and buffing others to force them in.
http://www.surrenderat20.net/p/current-pbe-balance-changes.html#balance There's the Pyke nerf. (They're not actually going to nerf Pyke. Instead they're buffing Blitzcrank The Ban Shield to lower his ban rate)
You are right ofcourse, but...

he has a 50% winrate at most in high elo. Hes not worth nerfing at all.
diana was good for 1 patch this whole season
hasnt pyke been getting nerfs tho? like the increase in time it takes to charge up a hook, dash minion damage removal, stab damage increase, stab aoe damage, and R's damage below execute range?
Sigh....Guess it's time to pick up and play either riven, pyke, or fiora. I can drop darius, urgot, and brand now. All too immobile and not enough straight burst to really matter. They don't have get out of jail free cards like pyke either, so it's time to just move on so I can be viable.... So I guess that's it, riot has about 20 champs. We should all only ever play riv, jax, fiora, pyke, yas, and any of the top 5 assassins or adcs.
Let's get him to 100% already.
Riot won't sell off their "Scorpion MK rip off" champ.

For below ~plat the threshold is 54.5% win rate if their ban rate is low, or 52.5% win rate if their ban rate is high For plat -> masters, the threshold is 54% win rate with a low ban rate, or 52% win rate with a high ban rate. For challenger, the threshold is 45% ban rate For pro play, it's 90% presence
If a champion meets any of those four criteria, they get nerfed. So unless that 65% ban rate is specifically at Challenger, they're not breaking their balance criteria... that being said, I believe since this patch is the world's patch, they may be paying less attention to solo queue balance temporarily to ensure a stable playing field for worlds...
Everyone just agree to ban pyke, and maybe we can reach near 200% banrate with both teams banning him every game.
I dont think you guys understand that all these nerfs and buffs are about Worlds... Riot doesnt care what happens below Masters.
"Should have"
"Should of" is a misspelling because of what it sounds like to say "should've".
We know who's getting the victorious skin next year.
let me explain to you how this works,
Pyke is still selling a shit ton of skins, so there's no way they nerf him rn. Once his skin sales start to slow down, then maybe they will take a look at him. Its obvious as fuck, why else do you think riven is getting a revert? Why else do you think aatrox was allowed to be strong for so long? Once aatrox skins stopped selling, CYA @aatrox. Why else was vayne buffed despite being a 50% wr high skill cap adc? Skins.
according to people who main him, he should have gotten nerfec patches ago
Riot Metrics consider Win rate + Ban Rate, not Pick Rate. Pyke is pulling 51.2% Win rate. He's "borderline" meeting their metric, but not quite.
P.S. He's BEEN Nerfed. He no longer can do anything except Ult/Support. Maybe you shouldn't have gotten on the support only bandwagon and supported removing his aoes. Riot had to compensate that somehow......
