Pyke is still fucking broken as shit

Worlds is over.

Don't do the whole "it's preseason, things are going to be broken" " oh it's the begin of the season we need to wait for things to play out" "oh it's mid season here's some movement speed slaps because worlds is fucking 6 months away and we don't wanna mess it up" bullshittery.

Hes been fucking ridiculous since he came out. Nerf him already. Shit is fucking annoying. Worlds is over. You don't need flashy press R one shots anymore.

He has too much. You can't have a tahm kench heal, invis, movement speed increases, a fucking hook, an execute, AND a fucking stun ANNNNNND a fucking dash in one single kit. That is absolutely ludicrous. It's like LB. You can't fucking have 3 god damn escapes.....

Hes too safe. Does too much damage. Has no way to be punished for making mistakes.

Add on the new Dark Harvest and a and he is beyond a monster. Time to do something. Don't drag this one out for 6 months till "it's too late to fix it" because "worlds is coming up in 5 months".

Again... Don't pull what you did last season to this one.... You put shit off way too long.

What is your obsession with overloading kits and giving champs EVERYTHING. Shields, dashes, stuns, invis, heals, massive damage, movement speed.... Fucking chill the hell out already with this crap.

Game starts

12 mins later, enemy Pyke 8/0 and has more AD than his adc

I feel like his ult has too much range.

He is honestly extremely easy to kill especially with need lethality for his items to scale.

Plenty of outplay potential.

I'm ok with his damage, I just detest how safe he is, he can almost run away from anything and his passive heal is too much. That heal needs to be toned down

The idea of a support asassin was stupid since minute 1.

He was going to be broke and everyone knew it.

Rigth now he is basically an asassin, and a very annoying one, that is allowed to go bot for some reason.

Why does he need true dmg is what i think.

Pyke is fine. Actually play him and you will see where his weaknesses are. Also the DH Pyke is such a fucking meme. It makes him useless as shit. Unless you are 10/0/0 but even then you are just a weaker version of Shaco.

Pyke as a support was a mistake.

I don't mind his damage. That is nothing new to bot lane.

I care about the safety that comes with that damage. That is frustrating to play against.

The whole game is a disgusting mess. Same people "working" on it, same result, ofc.

I really hope that the players who quit in Season 8 (a lot) and who have come back just to see if this game was getting any better will notice that nothing has really changed. And hopefully more players will see it.

One-shots, spam all around, unbalanced teams every single time (even when you win, of course)... Where is the fun? Really, where?

I see little arguments, only whinning. The Dark Harvest interaction with Pyke is pretty strong and can feel bs not gonna lie but still, you're talking like Pyke is LeBlanc level of Broken. He got regen that can be cancel by vision, a Camouflage meaning if he's close you'll see him plus the sharks and sound when he's close, movement speed ok fine Pyke can go pretty fast but he's not on the levels of high speed monsters, a hook that is the most telegraph of all of them with a pretty slim hitbox, an execute with enough windup for you to Dash or Flash away pretty easily, a easily dodged Stun that is also his only DASH.

Complaining about Pyke is like complaining about Blitz, get good at dodging and you'll be fine. You can just explode him if he E in, I feel like in people minds Supports shouldn't do damage, like hell no they can deal damage, Zyra and Bard can deal pretty big damage early on, same goes for mages that work well in botlane like Brand, Vel'Koz and even Lux.

I hate Draven more than Irelia and Pyke combined.

Well, accurate post, one year passed since this post and Puke still is broken

LET US go over his kit for a moment, just to emphasize on how ridiculous it is:

He has a very decent ranged hook(1), if you don't want to hook you can tap(2) it to deal a good amount of damage to targets in a line in front of you; refundable mana on interruptions(3) He has a dash(4), that has a stun(5) hitbox the size of china, that gives movement speed(6) that is also a decent gap closer(7) that can also be used to disengage(8) since it works perfectly well with his healing factor(9) when out of sight, and just happen to make him invisible(10) cause why not, He has an ult that is an AOE execute(11) dealing true damage(12) that resets on each kill(13) for 20 seconds at no cost of mana whatsoever(14), and if you want that extra sprinkle on top it also gives allies gold for assisting(15)
