Guide to Synergizing Vex and Pyke

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.

Is Vex better when played alongside Pyke?

There is no ideal champion pairing for Vex that will 100% of the time be their top teammate. However, overall, Pyke is a below average companion for Vex. By being on the same team as Vex, he drops their win rate by -1.5% to 47.3%. This demonstrates that there is a bad strategic relationship between Vex and Pyke that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Pyke has a much greater difficulty compared to Vex. That means you should be very careful when finding Pyke comrades to fight alongside, as they will have to have a much higher level of skill to fight well with you.

When playing alongside, you should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to destroy wih physical damage. Together, these champs should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Pyke teammate, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well anyway.
