It's so horribly designed it thresholds not even on %HP, but FLAT HP, which also for some reason scales on 3 separate stats; level, bonus AD, and lethality, so it means that it scales into late and gets stronger when Pyke stacks typical AD assassin items. Good luck being executed at half HP.

Better yet, it ignores shield. If your HP checks the threshold test. Kiss goodbye and no amount of shield will save you because reasons.

And it resets! The show never ends! What's next?

And it duplicates kill gold, too! So Pyke can't even run into the gold-sink problem that high kill threat champs are fundamentally balanced by, where they can sit on too much gold they don't even use leading to a starved and lost team, since he basically just duplicates kill gold for his team. Isn't that just lovely...

... And absolutely appalling?

Pyke is one of the worst designed champs lately.

Whoever thought about giving an assassin those base damages + aoe hard cc + that ult is just not very good at their job.

The shape of it is such that it’s very hard to aim and very easy to dodge.

Pyke cannot gain more max health thus he remains one of the squishiest champions in the game who can be focused down at the beginning of a fight if you’re worried about him.

Well just you wait and see how they are doubling-down on the design and buffing it!

Pyke, Darius and Chogath have very different power managed throwout their kit, of course their executes are going to be different.

Without his R Pyke is slippery but otherwise absurdly weak by assassin standards or melee support standards.

Darius is strong all around even without his ult and Chogath is a moving CC machine that can 1k True damage demolish you, not to mention he can also steal objectives with it.

Dont compare the power placed into one aspect of Pykes kit to another champion's without looking at the rest of his abilities genius.

cho doesnt have to stack. it just does more damage with stacks (and he has to go meele range)

Reaper Soraka7/12/2019, 7:37:19 PM3 votes

play zyra or leblanc into him. You can meta pick as well like thresh nami soraka. standard playstyles.

zyra can block his hook with plants, which will also harass him. combo near-kills him if not kills him.

Leblanc literally just kills him, it's really sad....but kinda fun.

What does Cho have to stack to execute?

Also, are we conveniently forgetting about Urgot? And the fact that his ult is a skillshot?

Since when does Cho have to stack anything to execute you? As long as you're low enough he just eats you.
