Guide to Synergizing Zeri 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 Zeri better when played alongside Pyke?

There is no ideal synergy for Zeri that will always be their ideal teammate. Yet, Pyke is a terrible teammate for Zeri. By playing on the same side as Zeri, he decreases their win rate by -3.5% to 42.7%. This signals that there is a very bad synergy between Zeri and Pyke that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Pyke has a greater difficulty than Zeri. That means Zeri players should be careful when lining up Pyke comrades to play with, as they will require a greater level of skill to play well with you.

Playing cooperatively, you should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal physical damage. Together, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

In contrast, by grouping Zeri and Pyke together, you probably will not be granting your side much AP. Make sure to have other champs on your team that offsets this hole in their abilities.

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