Pyke Counters

Learn 's counters and discover matchups where they have an advantage!

Hold: Pyke throws his harpoon, dealing 100 / 150 / 200 / 250 / 300 (+0.6 per bonus attack damage) physical damage to the first enemy hit and pulling them towards him. They are then slowed by 90% for 1 second. This ability's cooldown is refunded if it hits a champion.

Death from Below Pyke's Ultimate (R) Ability

750

100

100 / 85 / 70 / 70 / 70

Pyke strikes all enemy champions in an X, teleporting to and executing targets below 250-550 (+0.8 per bonus attack damage) (+1.5 per 1 lethality) health (depending on level). Champions above the threshold and non-champions instead take 50% physical damage. When an enemy champions dies inside the X, they grant the kill gold to both Pyke and an assisting ally and Pyke can recast this ability for free within 20 seconds.
