Guide to Synergizing Gwen and Pyke

Tips for Playing as Gwen with Pyke

Gwen can still damage enemies outside her Hallowed Mists, especially with her Ultimate's range.

Some of Gwen's Abilities can apply her passive to multiple enemies, so aim them at groups to get maximum damage and healing.

Always be Attacking - In addition to dealing bonus damage, Gwen's Attacks empower or reset many of her Abilities.

Advice to Understand How Pyke Will Play

The Tap version of Bone Skewer is much faster and deals additional damage.

A lot of your agressive spells are also your escapes. Make sure you always have a plan to get out of the fight.

Hitting an enemy with the Hold version of Bone Skewer will always pull them the same distance. Use it in melee range to throw targets behind you.

Pyke is very fragile so don't be afraid to temporarily run from a fight. You can regenerate a significant amount of health from Gift of the Drowned Ones when enemies can't see you.

How to Play with Pyke as Gwen in LoL

The Gwen Pyke synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Pyke, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Gwen sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Pyke. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This decrease shows that Pyke helps Gwen perform not as well in ranked League games. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Gwen is an ally to Pyke, she observes a marginal improvement in her full damage output. This could indicate that Pyke provides cover for her to dish out more damage or that his presence on the team also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Gwen is played with Pyke on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Pyke.

Moreover, when Gwen plays with Pyke on the same side, she often receives a little more damage than when she fights alone. Receiving more damage may indicate that Pyke does a poor job of protecting Gwen in team fights.

Is Gwen better when played alongside Pyke?

There is no perfect synergy for Gwen that will no matter what be her top synergy. Yet, overall, Pyke is a very typical ally for Gwen. By being on the same side as Gwen, he has no effect on their win rate by 0.0% to 48.1%. This proves that there is a weak bond between Gwen and Pyke that results in them performing at the same level together than without each other.

Pyke has a greater difficulty than Gwen. That means Gwen players should be very careful when enlisting Pyke allies to play with, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to be able to work well with you.

When playing cooperatively, Gwen players will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to destroy wih physical damage. Combined, these two can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

Conversely, by grouping Gwen and Pyke together, you may not be granting your other allies a great deal of magical damage output. We recommend you have other champs on your team that neutralizes this relative hole in their potential.

Regardless of the skill of your Pyke teammate, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well, regardless.
