Guide to Synergizing Pyke and Jax

Tips for Playing as Pyke with Jax

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.

Jax can Leap Strike to friendly units, including wards. You can use them to plan your escape.

How to Play with Jax as Pyke in LoL

Overall, Pyke sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Jax. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN. This decrease shows that Jax helps Pyke perform not as well in ranked LoL games. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is only marginal.

When Pyke plays on the same team as Jax, he sees a little drop in his complete damage dealt. This change could signal that Jax doesn't help cover for him to deal more damage or that his support also helps increase the game's duration. Similarly, when Pyke is played together with Jax on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays without Jax. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Jax.

Additionally, when Pyke plays with Jax on the same team, he typically takes a little less damage than when he fights alone. Receiving not as much damage may indicate that Jax does a decent job of protecting Pyke in teamfights.

Is Pyke better when played alongside Jax?

There is no universally accepted best ally for Pyke that will always be his ideal synergy. However, Jax is a very typical ally for Pyke. By being on the same side as Pyke, he raises their win rate by 0.9% to 50.0%. This clearly indicates that there is only a small strategic relationship between Pyke and Jax that results in them performing at the top of their game together than without each other.

Jax has a lower difficulty than Pyke. That means Pyke players don't need to be cautious when arranging Jax allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a relatively low level of skill to fight well with you.

Working on the same side, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal physical damage. Together, these champs should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

In contrast, by grouping Pyke and Jax together, you may not be granting your side a great deal of AP. We recommend you pick other champions on your team that nullifies this relative disparity in this pairing's potential.

Regardless of your Jax ally's skill level, you should focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well anyway.
