two nerfs I would recommend

Draven - Like come on, everyone knows it. Draven is for sure a go to pick if someone is trying to go imperial, but the problem is that draven is way too strong if he at least gets his hands on a bloodthirster, rageblade or a gunblade, either way he still does extreme damage and can have the potential of one shotting squishy champions on the map. By the fact he can 1v6 alone is already an indicator that riot should tone him down. Sure, kha'zix can one shot an enemy squishy with a luden's (I kid you not) but it's at least his special ability, Draven one shot squishies for almost every attack he does.

Pyke - A hitbox bigger than my future. I have no real rage against pyke, he is a completely stable unit and doesn't have the potency of being able to 1v6 like draven, but his phantom undertow is VERY long ranged which I am fine with that, but the width of the ability however is absurd. This reminds me of Nergigante from monster hunter world during the beta of it, which his dive bomb attack had decently far range, but a hitbox so wide he can just hit you by flying over you. Pyke is a complete interpretation of that, his phantom undertow WIDTH of the hitbox needs to be toned down a bit, if possible he is capable of stunning a whole team with high damage in the process, which sounds normal on a 3v3, but I mean he can stun like 7 people at once (I seen it before). And by the fact that he is an assassin allows him to go in the backline and not be targetted, so he can easily just smack an enemy squishy and get that phantom undertow up, and easily turn around a team fight. Also you do not know the horror with TWO PYKES at once on the same team, it's stun city.

Agree with both. Draven is grossly overpowered, however if they nerf draven, they also need to take a look at other broken ranged champs like Ashe that can freeze half the screen with her autos.

Pyke just gets too much CC and damage. And the amount you can get him bouncing around mean he likely never dies. (although a rapid cannon on the adc does wonders vs him.

pyke is nothing compared to any of the broken CC trio imo Sejuani Gnar Chogath unless you get like double spear which should be fixed

I think Lulu and Pyke are the only champions as individuals that need to be nerfed. Draven is strong, but he is an endgame champion and there is plenty of wiggleroom to counter Draven.
