Is Pyke better when played alongside Vex?

By being on the same side as Pyke, they decreases their win rate by -1.8% to 47.3%. This shows that there is a harmful strategic relationship between Pyke and Vex that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.
Vex has a much lower diffuclty than Pyke. That means Pyke players don't need to be very careful when arranging Vex teammates to fight alongside, as they will need a much lower level of skill to be able to do well with you.
Working on the same side, Pyke players should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal physical damage. Combined, these champions can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.
Although, by pairing Pyke and Vex together, you may not be providing your other allies a lot of magical damage output. Make sure to pick other champions on your team that nullifies this disparity in their abilities.
Regardless of the skill of your Vex teammate, you need to focus on maximizing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
