Guide to Synergizing Nami and Pyke

Tips for Playing as Nami with Pyke

Nami's ultimate can come in very handy for initiating on enemies who are far away.

Using Ebb and Flow during an engagement with enemy champions will help sway the battle in your favor.

Aqua Prison has a long cooldown, make sure to use it at the right moment.

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.

Overall, Nami sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Pyke. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN.

This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Pyke.

Is Nami better when played alongside Pyke?

There is no top champion pairing for Nami that will always be her top synergy. However, overall, Pyke is a very bad ally for Nami. By locking into the same side as Nami, he decreases their win rate by -3.7% to 45.4%. This clearly indicates that there is an easy to overcome and exploit synergy between Nami and Pyke that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Pyke has a greater difficulty than Nami. That means you should be cautious when enlisting Pyke teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a greater level of skill to cooperate well with you.

Playing cooperatively, Nami players should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to support your allies. Together, these champs may be able to carry with the power of their abilities.

In contrast, by pairing Nami and Pyke together, you probably will not be giving your side much cover. Plan to have other champs on your team that nullifies this relative gap in this pairing's capabilities.

Regardless of your Pyke ally's skill level, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well, regardless.
