I try not to rage when something unfair happens in a game. I really do. However, this is absolutely infuriating to play against. How can Pyke's hook land nearly 2 full on-screen inches to the left of where the original skillshot is aimed? How am I supposed to dodge it?
I really hope the hitbox needs work and it's not my eyes..
TL;DR - I hope the image says it all.
man a hook ability with a bad hitbox thats never happened before
All hook hitboxes need looking at.
I've had hooks and Morgana Q's hitting me when I'm standing in my minions.
The hitbox for hooks is a lollipop. Imagine (or just draw) a circle around the tip of the hook that is a Teemo in radius (2 teemo diameter) and there you go. The actual hitbox is close to that. It was done to make the skill easier to land, because Riot does not think we are capable as a playerbase. Also, because flashy plays, etc. most skill hitboxes, even the ones with indicators, actually extend beyond those indicators, this is to make the skill-shot easier for people to land by literally just not being visually accurate. Go stand next to a Lux E, A Sion Q, Lux R, you'll see that even when outside the designated hitbox, you will be hit. Now, they didn't do this for everyone, some skillshots are more precise, but it's not as common as the wonky hitboxes.
Its not hiboxes. Its red teams vision that is broken. Have you wondered why you miss skillshots more often while beeing on the red team, well, this is the reason. Blue team > red team. Even winrate proofs that
I wish that champ was never even created. Sigh.
heat seeking hook activated!
Looks 
Fine 
to 
me 
@Riot - Can you please look at hooks hitbox?*
here fixed it for ya
Because the skillshot is edge to edge, the animation adjusts after it lands to be center - center. It clearly hit you.

That is caused by latency, and can't really be fixed, they could reduce the size of the hitbox on his Q a little bit, but if they do it too much then the opposite case will happen, the Q will just go through players without hooking them..
Literally every hook ability needs a change of hitbox.
I've had times when the hook has pulled people that were a ways out of the entire range altogether. Shocking for the enemy you say? Hell, no one was more surprised than me lol
At least you didnt get hooked from behind minions, because that can happen too.
As a Pyke main I can confirm the hitbox is sometimes a bit wacky, but this doesn’t always lead to scenarios like this. I’ve had multiple occasions where the hook just went through someone. Honestly, almost every hitbox in league is broken. I’ve been hit by Jhin W’s, Caitlyn Q’s or Ashe R’s where I was questioning if that really hit me. So it’s not just Pyke :p
Nautilus hook currently bypasses minions quite often.
Currently all "hooks" are running a "aim assist". Main excuse is to combat lag spikes. It is nothing new. Riot had always use the aim assist, just now is more aggressively doing its job.
his E is even worse , especially that it's AOE
Here's a list of spells I think need to have their hitboxes checked

It hit your shadow. Therefore it counts. /s
But in all seriousness every champ with a hook needs its hitboxes clarified. Hitboxes in general just need to be clarified.
Honestly, as a Pyke player, I would love a smaller hitbox on the hook. It gets caught on minions so easily that it's nearly impossible to land a hook with the wave anywhere nearby. A smaller hook would make it easier to thread it through the minion wave.
