Q
Pyke's Q is pretty self explanatory. Tapping it is a quick stab, holding it is a long range pull.
Tips
- Tapping his will go through minions to hit champions
- You do not need to hold Q to gain maximum distance. just hold it for 2 or so seconds, not the full 5 seconds.
- Charge up Q for full distance while out of vision (bush), and then leave to move towards the target to get the strike.
- if you hit your Q to an enemy that is close enough, they will go behind you.
- you can pull enemies through walls. using the tip above, you can pull an enemy infront of you to the other side of a thin wall behind you.

E
Pyke's E is where the skill comes In. Yes, his Q is a skill shot, but his E is the hardest ability to use in the game.
Tips
- His E can dash him through walls, almost any wall infact. a bit more distance than a flash
- The split second before the Ghost dashes to you, you can do anything you want. Flash to get further and hit multiple enemies, Prowlers behind the enemy you are targeting, ghost/W (or both) to try to hit multiple enemies, R to leap to the furtherest point possible on an enemy and hit multiple enemies with the E.
- Using your E to escape is not your best choice since you also have other ways to escape. Your E is the main way to pull off combos, so save it. flash, ghost, and W will get the job done, but you can always use E, its fine.

W
Your W is your movement. no tips needed, use it how you would use any other movement ability in game. Roaming, hitting your E, escaping, engaging, ganking, anything really. leveling it up will scale the movement bonus based on your lethality. ghost blade is meant for pyke because of the movement and the lethality, so combine ghost blade and W to roam around the map at maximum movement speed.
R
Your R is the main focus point of pyke. Other than the cc, his R is what makes pyke shine.
Tips
- you can use your R to engage and get a kill for a lane. You dont always need to use it to kill someone for the gold, although the better option.
- you can use your R as someone is dying to claim the 300 bonus gold yourself and let whoever got the kill to actually get the kill. as long as they die within your ult, it will give the bonus gold.
- the main use for your ult is the pursure kills that cannot be got by your team. aka, turret diving and people who are running from team fights for the most part.
- only use your ult when you are possitive it will hit and it will kill. shields, and heals will ruin them which is why ignite helps with pyke. exhaust helps as well so you can catch up to enemies.
