Pyke's base stats have nothing to do with his rise in performance

Felt like this needed its own thread, because it's really hard to get people to see comments that call out lies and misleading information.

But anyone who looks at Pyke's Patch history and thinks about it for a moment should understand why he just jumped in performance.

• He hasn't had any buffs to his base stats, so that's not it.
• He hasn't had any buffs to his abilities, so that's not it.
• In fact, two of his abilities were extremely heavily nerfed, so that definitely can't be it.

But you know what was buffed? He now gets another 100 - 300 extra gold for killing anyone with his ultimate. That's a lot of gold, and makes a big difference. I'm actually surprised there's even one person who could have access to the patch notes and not realize this.
