Pyke has a greater difficulty than Lux. That means Lux players should be cautious when arranging Pyke teammates to play with, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to do well with you.
Fighting on the same side, Lux players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to provide utility and CC for your side. When paired, these two may be able to carry with the power of their abilities.
In contrast, by pairing Lux and Pyke together, you will not be granting your other allies enough tankyness. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that offsets this relative hole in this pairing's potential.
Regardless of your Pyke ally's ability, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
