so ive been seeing a lot of hate lately about pyke and id like to talk about some things to start off the only reason i got to m7 on pyke was because i was tired of fighting him but most importantly it feels like there is a bunch of supports who just simply shit on every single traditional support example Xerath Brand Zyra Velkoz as a support main i pretty much get on the game thinking "hey maybe ill play a little bit of soraka or maybe taric" only to have me and my bot lane get completely shit on by poke high burst mage "supports" so sadly i gotta fight burst with burst like bot lane some times feels more like a 2 person mid lane not that i always feel forced to play pyke he is a fun champ to play but i understand the frustration people have so heres what i propose

change his passive healing to only activate when he is a decent distance away from enemy champions so that was he simply cant activate his W and regain all his health in trades or maybe make it similar to his current mana like Blitzcrank slow

his hook is pretty good when comparing it to champs like Blitzcrank Thresh if you really want to nerf it i suggest maybe taking away the mana refund when you dont cast it or make it more mana hungry early game

second the biggest problem i have with his e is that it feels almost impossible to sidestep and sometimes the hitbox feels way bigger then it actually is so i hope they fix that soon

his ult is super aids simple as that it scales way to well late game I SHOULD not be able to one shot the tank at like half health i suggest making it waaay slower to activate so that way you actually have time to react to it similar to rakans knockup and maybe add a duration before it activates say if you get a kill with it you have to wait a couple of seconds before you can use it again so that way you actually have to think about who you want to execute in a team fight rather then just spamming it and getting ez quads and pentas

another big problem i have is that he simply can 0-100 a lot of people in a couple of seconds so i want them to make him slower while not making him impossible to play or way too clunky what do yall think

Most of your suggestions are about laning Laning against isn't the main issue about him In lane it feels easy to dodge , his pre 6 isn't strong and getting hooked isn't insta death

It's later when he scales " or gets fed because of how strong his ult is "

Simple way to fix it ? Remove the reset on his ult Compensation buff? Make it a must hit or something Not sure what to do with the Aoe when he misses or enemy uses Zhonia , but every time something interrupts his ult like Zhonia or something , refund the ult cd to 3-5 seconds until he gets a kill Sharing gold can be kept , it's a 1 kill but guaranteed

It wouldn't gut him , it would make playing him comfortable in case an enemy dashed or flashed his ult , and so he can't excute for the whole fight

And it would me make him less unfun to play against such as Spam R to win

Maybe nerf the Passive heal as well , since it's frustrating.

Or just remove the ult reset
