He may be able to go jungle but based off his abilities i dunno if his clear will be good. (may depend on the CDs)

Dont worry the last thing pyke is going to be is a support.

He might even go bot lane and not farm, but hes still not going be a support, just a no farm assassin.

Read his passive. He would be trash in top and most likely trash mid. He isn't an ADC. Only other 2 positions would be sup and JG since they are not reliant on kills. He also cannot stack HP but he will likely default build Duskblade and Spirit Visage every game.

I just see him as a jungler. He has an execute, stealth, a pull, slightly altered eve's passive, and he's forced to be the squishiest fuck ever... For some reason...

How could he be a jungler? Like it really does all depend on CD. His Q is his waveclear and is his pull so odds are it wont be 3 sec or less like Eve Q. And his passive only works with enemy champs. The executes gives an ally extra gold and what better then an ADC (since currently ADCs have biggest impact). You throw him JG and the SUP has a chance to get the gold. I don't see him as a GOOD jungle. Or reliable one that is. I see him as a better support meant to give your ADC a lead. Like i could see if he went JG him going something like Ravenous Hydra for the clear from autos and lifesteal. But any HP he builds turns into AD so good luck till you even get that lifesteal xD. I dunno maybe im 100% wrong but nothing about him screams any kind of a good SUP to me.

Wouldn't his E be the wave clear? It doesn't look like his Q hits minions. Build a hydra and some attack speed. From the video's he tanks turret shots just fine. I feel like he'll have good base health and resistances to counteract his inability to build health.

His Q does hit minions. And his E is on like a 15 sec CD and his Q is on a 8 sec CD max rank. Why go attack speed he is an assassin? I think even Zed would make a better JG because least you can go Black Cleaver. xD litteraly would be like using Anivia Q to farm (in theory not 100% sure)

So I just watched a video with him on SoloRenektonOnly who took him top lane against a riven. He has an insanely high damage early game. Black Cleaver is essentially his core item. He does have some really high cd's which limit his trading ability but he can just get into a small fight, run into bush and heal up. He's actually super cool.
