This is a game I played as Pyke support. I had coin, so obviously I didn't really want to farm minions. I played extremely well, got my ADC fed, got my mid-lane fed with roams, and snowballed the whole game out of control. I even help shut down the enemy jungler early. But I get an A+ for all of my efforts, because I didn't have 100+ CS. But why? It's actually worse for me to take farm from my ADC.
Sukishoo6 votesIt's not really the CS that's a problem. It's comparing you to others that play him and thus if you want to be better, you gotta get better than them. The overall kills in the game were 46 for your team with 40 assists and thus your 11 and 12 went for a 50% participation. If you want the -S, S or S+ you have to push the participation to at least 60%, sure more CS can help a bit but it's heavily weighted on the overall participation.
It's really not that hard.
Phieldworker4 votesYou don’t need 100 cs as a support. I got plenty of S+ on thresh and Braum with maybe 40 cs and level 7 mastery on both.
It’s conparing your play on that champ to others who play him.

MarkedOfKane1 votesI frequently get S ranks as support Pyke.
Asamas1 votesBut how much was your vision score? I usually have 60 on Thresh and it's easy S if I have decent KDA with no more then 4 deaths and if I have good farm from about 30 minions. You should look to get one minion per two waves let's say. It won't give you much gold but it's for the S ofc and that way it looks innocently enough not to rage the adc. And wards. A lot of wards. With that it will be easy S every game. Usually that's the strategy for the S farming. You need to play to get the S. Stealing farm, getting kills (which shouldn't be a problem for Pyke) and having unnecessary desire to ward the whole map.
Your farm is good as I see for the duration of the game but the vision score is really important when playing support (and not only). 40 should be good I think but from begining to end I look to place wards. One tip: Place a control ward early on where it's hard for the enemy to take. Then after a while get another one (that's should be after 15-20 mins) and place it. You will get about 20 vision score from that. Then start placing control wards as normal until you reach the need of a last item.
Dr40UR1 votesBut this game was an S- somehow. This makes no sense.
