Fighting alongside, Blitzcrank players should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal physical damage. Together, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.
In contrast, by aligning Blitzcrank and Pyke together, you will not be giving your side much magical damage output. We recommend you have other champs on your team that offsets this gap in this pairing's playstyle.
Regardless of your Pyke ally's ability, you should focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well, regardless.
