his only counterplay is if hes picked or if i have a garbage adc. i literally do well against morg and leona. no one else is a threat besides my own adc and if i decide to say what not to do.. my adc usually runs under tower into his combo :/ its aids.

PYKe otp? Name checks out.

Pyke has a strong early and mid, it's his job, the problem though comes when late game rolls around and Pyke's squishiness catches up to him, he pops incredibly fast, his damage becomes laughably low, with every support out-damaging him, and at this point the only things he remotely contributes is the ability to distract enemies, CC, and his ult, meaning he needs to rely on his team a lot at this point. That's Pyke's weakness, he's an anti-hypercarry, as long as you respect his early game power you'll be able to slaughter him when late game rolls around

What defines "late game" in League nowadays? The 25-28 min mark?

honestly not sure, but as Pyke you'll know late game as the moment you can get 100-0'd by practically anyone and your Q/AA/E/AA combo takes at most half of an ADC's health

Many games are decided before the 25 min mark and such is reasons why Pyke is so good. Also, no one plays tank like champions and damage items are the only items being built in league ATM so everyone's squishy for each other to 100-0 another.

IDK about you but I'm honestly a bit tired of all this damage in league at the moment.

Tanks are not the counter to pyke: champs like garen, sion, nasus etc cant really do much to pyke in the 1v1(you can kite them off forever) and they dont have much threat vs pyke in a teamfight either since it is so easy for pyke to CC them and stand out of melee range while pykes teammates dump on them.

What actually beats pyke hard are high mobility melee bruisers/divers like Diana, Sylas, and Yasuo and AP assassins like leblanc and fizz. Champs with multiple dashes make it very difficult for the pyke to land anything (all of pykes damaging abilities are telegraphed skillshots).

I never said tanks, this is all still correct though, despite the misunderstanding

as a pyke player, the way to deal with him is to focus his adc, and respect his strength .

he have bad peeling but strong offense meaning he is a champion about getting and pushing a lead early, if he did not do that he lost the lane pretty much.
