Introduction

Hey guys! I've been playing Pyke since he came out on PBE and I already tried a lot of builds. As a support main (Plat V) I'm trying to adapt the champion to my play style.
Pyke is an assassin so its hard to really build him as a peel support but you can make him a playmaker machine!
"Why building tank items since you don't get bonus hp?"
Passive
Innate: Pyke stores a percentage of the damage he takes from enemy champions as Grey Health on his health bar.
When Pyke is unseen by enemies, he rapidly heals for a portion of his Grey Health over time, consuming it in the process
Pyke also converts his bonus health into bonus attack damage instead.
That means gets 1 AD for every 14 bonus health.
What I'm trying to do here is build some items with hp and good stats for engaging. Since your ult its an executioner you don't really need to do all the damage, you can set the play and then finish with your ult. Remember you will be helping your carry so he is going to do most of the damage and you will KS it giving him full gold for it.
"Building AD is way better, why would I go this build?"
Actually, it is better for him as a champion to build AD since all of his abilities scales with AD but that's not the focus I'm trying to give to this build. I mean you can build full AD and still be great at it but you are not gonna give the same support for your team as a playmaker in my opinion.
For the stats of this "Final Build", you will have:
AD - Movement Speed - Armor - Magic Resist - Cooldown Reduction(Very important)
Why resolve and not Domination (Electrocute or Predator)?
I go aftershock because it goes well with your E and it gives you the "defenses" you need for going in.
Remember your W is insanely good for ganking so try to roam as much as you can, that's why we take waterwalking.
We also take transcendence for the extra CDR + Damage we get for going over the CDR cap.
Try this build, it's so fun to play! Hope this guide helps :)
