Riot why are you trying so hard to make Pyke build into a singular path?

I am lost for words in everypatch riot pushed Pyke into scaling with AD but you still could build something(tanky) else and still be viable, with the latest patch basically they made so you NEED to build lethality or you are done...so much for diversity.... Pyke only has one viable build now and that is lethality ....i fell in love with that champ since he came out i usally play him on top and actually do good i have a really good build i go for on top and it works pretty well check my history for more today my enemy top laner called me a cheater cuz he was getting snowballed by what seems a support champion........and in some games before that enemy xayah called me a smurf iam just a gold 3 player .....but i love going for that build i never do bad when i go top with him even if i lose i still win my lane and such but you cant win them alll ammarite? xD Anw guys i don't know how to react to those changes they hurt my playstyle too much previous changes did the same but it dint matter to me i could still do stuff now his ult is gonna be pretty weak with the new changes...

sorry for writing too much ...and by no means this is a QQ post it is just that i am worried i wont be able to play the way i want and i feel like i am being forced into a path i dont wanna take..... i wanna have option and now i don't this prolly effects a really small amount of people but still @RIOT why u gotta take the fun from me??

Do you guys Agree with the changes i would love to see your opinions on this maybe I AM WRONG and pyke is way too good when building tanky..

Pretty much every build listed for him in high elo is tank.

It's not an "alternative build path" if it's the most effective way to build him.

He was building tank everygame in high elo. Tank was purely better and more effective. This change may finally make it optional to build both ways.

The tank build was overly unhealthy for a champ like him, so they nerfed the power on it so if you want full effectiveness, you build leth items, which is perfectly fine.
