Here is your route. You are leashed by bot, whether it be red or blue. Doesn't matter. Use E once at the beginning and then save it for the next camp. If it is a good leash, you will kill the buff before it comes off cooldown. If you got red first, go straight to birds. Attack the small bird in the back and E toward bush, just like peeling a banana. Clump'em up together for one big stab. 2 Autos on each small should do the trick, then go for the big one. Check river for scuttle at that point. If it is available, take it. If not, then go to the other side of the river. Scuttle should be there unless mid showed up late. Then go for wolves. Use your E from outside of the wolf pit inward to smack all 3 with the E. Gather'em for a family stab, then auto them. Try to get one of the small ones stabbed first. Then, Go for blue. You might need to smite blue for enough health, but do it if need be. Then take gromp. You will most likely need to smite it. First clear done. If you take blue first, go gromp, scuttle (to other scuttle if applicable), to red (you will most likely need to smite it), then to birds. Same clear tips apply throughout the entire game.

Here is a list of potential gank paths with notable landmarks for reference. Keep in mind these are the bare minimum (like level 3 gank). The higher level you are, the more capable you are from starting these paths from farther away and pulling it off alright. Top Lane (and Bot lane is pretty much the same): The classic lane gank, From long river bush to the center of lane. From river, through tri bush, and behind the enemy laner. If they are close enough, you can E over either walls next to tower. Mid lane: Straight down mid lane starting between the 2 towers if minions are colliding in the middle, behind 2nd if they are farther, Behind either wall next to their turret, from river (try to start from pixel bush).

Here are a couple combos key combos:
1. Held Q, E, auto (and titanic auto if applicable), smite, and ult. Pro: Can be started from a safe position. Con: Not as much damage.
2. E, Tapped Q, auto (and titanic auto if applicable), smite, and ult. Pro: More damage. Con: If used improperly, you are a sitting duck. Use it on someone who is alone from tower. Or, you can come from behind and E through their team to yours (this one is way more risky, though, so you might need to use flash to get out).

1. Use your passive to detect vision if your other tools are on cooldown. Do you see water flowing around you? No? retrace your steps a bit, then go back. If you were rippling and then stopped when you entered an area, chances are, it's warded.
2. Your Q is a FIXED DISTANCE! If you "hook stuff'em", you will fling them right behind you. In the right case, you can even fling them behind you over walls.
3. Your W is more useful than you think. It not only helps you regenerate health, but it makes you camouflaged. If people can't see you, they are going to assume the worst. They will probably think you are behind them. You can use this fake out tactic to fake a gank and best case scenario, have them possibly blow a sum or 2. But don't use it on the same people too often without having some threat behind your presence. It is threatening early since they don't know your exact damage output, and if you are fed, you bet they are going to do anything they can to get away from you. But if you do it too often, and you aren't doing to much, chances are that they will stay around and not give a care about you.
4. Your E is attached to you until it clicks back inside you. Until then, feel free to drag it wherever you please. You can even wait until the phantom is right on top of you, and then flash into an enemy to get an instant stun off. 5. You get transported to the CENTER of the X. Keep this in mind. X positioning is super important. Try to cover all possible options. Try leading them if you think they are going to flash your ultimate. Maybe you need to get to an enemy that's on one side. Just ult them with one of the tips of the X and get closer to them than you were before. Any bit of reach helps. 6. A good rule of thumb for the Pyke ult threshold: start at 250 for level 6. each completed ad item adds 100, each level adds 40. That's a rough estimate of how much damage he needs to execute with.

Thanks for reading this. Means a lot to me. Put in a lot of time and effort trying to figure this stuff out. If you have any notes on some of the more shaky stuff, feel free to leave them in the comments. Hope Pyke Jungle becomes relevant. Happy killing!
