Guide to Synergizing Taliyah and Pyke

Tips for Playing as Taliyah with Pyke

Remember, you don't always have to ride Weaver's Wall.

Try to throw enemies into Unraveled Earth using Seismic Shove.

Once you have Rylai's Crystal Scepter, casting Threaded Volley at enemies chasing you is a great way of making them regret everything.

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 Taliyah in LoL

Overall, Taliyah 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 negative change shows that Pyke helps Taliyah perform not as well in competitive League of Legends games. Yet, the small difference shows that this performance change is only marginal.

When Taliyah is an ally to Pyke, she sees a little increase in her total damage output. This could indicate that Pyke helps provide cover for her to deal more damage or that his presence also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Taliyah is played with Pyke on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Pyke.

Additionally, when Taliyah plays with Pyke on the same side, she often receives a little less damage than when she fights alone. Taking not as much damage may mean that Pyke does a decent job of covering Taliyah during teamfights.

Is Taliyah better when played alongside Pyke?

There is no top synergy for Taliyah that will 100% of the time be her #1 ally. Yet, Pyke is a very typical companion for Taliyah. By locking into the same team as Taliyah, he lowers their win rate by -0.4% to 48.4%. This signals that there is a weak strategic relationship between Taliyah and Pyke that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.

Pyke has a greater difficulty than Taliyah. That means Taliyah players need to be careful when enlisting Pyke allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a greater level of skill to do well with you.

Working together, Taliyah players should see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to provide utility and CC for your side. When paired, these champions should be able to manipulate the pace of team fights.

Although, by aligning Taliyah and Pyke together, you will not be giving your other teammates a great deal of magical damage output. We recommend you have other champs on your team that helps cover this relative gap in this pairing's potential.

Regardless of your Pyke ally's ability, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
