Tips for Playing as Zac with Pyke

Picking up goo chunks is very important to staying alive.

When Cell Division is ready, try to die in a position that makes it difficult for the enemy team to kill your bloblets.

Charging Elastic Slingshot from the fog of war will give opponents less time to react.

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.

This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Pyke.

By being on the same team as Zac, he drops their win rate by -1.0% to 50.8%. This signals that there is not really a strong bond between Zac and Pyke that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Pyke has a lower difficulty than Zac. That means you don't need to be very careful when enlisting Pyke teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a relatively low level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Playing cooperatively, you should observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to dish out massive AD. When paired, these champions can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Conversely, by pairing Zac and Pyke together, you will not be granting your side much magical damage output. Make sure to pick other champions on your team that fills this disparity in this pairing's abilities.

Regardless of the ability of your Pyke teammate, you should focus on increasing your income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
