I’m going to describe Pyke in one sentence.

It’s not kill STEALING, it’s kill SHARING.

Now we can show those ADC plebs just who the real killers in lane are. 0/10/30 ADC, maybe they should get the support item next game.

probably the one champion in the game its impossible to KS with....

unless you ganked while he was level 5.

You can still steal the kill with his other abilities or autos.

It's only kills with his ult that share. Although I imagine Riot is adding in a small bit of wiggle room so that ignite ticking a quarter of a second later still shares it.

I hope not. It's already anoying enough that darius has all the Band-Aids on his ult so bad players get resets.

It's rather a good Darius getting rewarded for executing with his ult properly

Automated RivenMay 15, 20181 votes

If that were true it would have that .75 seconds after he ults that if the bleed kills you he still gets a reset. Its stupid because when it's noticeably after the ult animation, and you make the decision to keep fighting because he won't have ult, and he still has ult. It's pretty dumb.

Ganesha from Smite has something similar and I LOVE that League has it now.

My thoughts exactly. However, giving kills to other teammates fits Ganesha, for Pyke it seems out of character. Also, getting kills on Ganesha is a fantastic feeling.

Eh, if you're a drowned sailor brought back from the dead (for whatever the reason) and you have a list of all of the people who helped in your demise, wouldn't you share some of the spoils with the people helping you?

From what I can tell from his special interactions, he appears to still share some sense of loyalty to his crew. Pretty much everyone else, though... good luck.

I want to try a botlane with Draven and Pyke.

-Draven gets a kill: Draven gets a ton of gold.

-Pyke gets a kill : Draven gets a ton of gold.

Doesn't his ult give kill credit?

or, you can use the excuse: Oops, though't youd get the credit. "Sorry".

Yeah, it does. The last ally to hurt a champ that Pyke killed with his ult also gets full kill credit.

They stole Pyke's name from Critical Role. Unoriginal jackarses these Rioters....

Pyre? Pyte? Pyle? P.J.? Pylja? Pilka? Pyl? Pyrt? Pyer? Do you see how effing easy this is, Riot???? Could you not have put five more seconds of effort into naming this guy? You might as well sex change him and hire Ashley Johnson for the voice. HELL, you even stole Pyke the cleric's backstory of being a sailor and combined it with coming back from the dead. WTF you copycats! I would be content if you literally took the E out of his name just to make it Pyk. Even that SLIGHT change would be JUST enough to quell my rage at this flagrant lazy travesty.

I rather belive it to be a inspired from Game of Thrones, Pyke is the capital of the Iron Islands, who have a very viking/pirate culture. Their god is even called the drowned god and it's followers drowned men. This books been out for over 20 years.

Nah, dude, they just took the name of a fish and changed it a bit for style.

You see, that one ACTUALLY makes sense, because he was drowned.

By the wording, if Pyke kills an enemy in the 'x' he shares the gold. If the 'x' only lasts for a fraction of a second, ignite ticks will ks not share. If it lasts for ~3 seconds, you could do some dumb stuff if they stay in it.
