Pyke

 

Pyke is one of the best assassins in League of Legends Wild Rift. He dominates the Support lane with his abilities.

Abilities 

 

  • Gift of Drowned Ones (Passive): Pyke has a unique ability to store 10% of the damage he takes from enemies, which jumps to 35% if he's near at least two enemy champions. However, this stored damage can't go over 80. Once he’s out of sight, Pyke gradually recovers this stored health.   
  • Bone Skewer (Ability 1):  Bone Skewer increases the range of his hook but slows Pyke down by 20%. He throws his spear and deals damage. If the ability is overcharged, players get some of the cooldown and mana cost back. 
  • Ghostwater Drive (Ability 2): Ghostwater Drive grants stealth and a decaying movement speed to the champion. While this ability is on, enemies can’t see him unless they’re close enough. This ability makes Pyke a master at roaming, letting him zip around the rift quickly. As a Support Assassin, Ghostwater Drive also gives Pyke a way to reposition himself, allowing him to sneak up on enemies and take out those with low health.
  • Phantom Undertow (Ability 3): Pyke dashes forward and leaves a phantom behind. After a short delay, the phantom rushes back to him, stunning anything in its path. For an extra edge, players can use Flash to enhance this skill. But there’s more to Phantom Undertow than just crowd control. It lets Pyke dash through walls, which is super handy.
  • Death from Below (Ultimate): Pyke marks a spot on the ground and can teleport there if he hits an enemy. If the target is above a certain health threshold, they take reduced damage, but if they’re low on health, they get executed. When that happens, both Pyke and the last ally who helped him get some gold. He also gains an extra charge of his ultimate.

Abilities 

 

Blade's End (Passive): This passive ability causes enemies to bleed after taking three hits. Regular attacks on enemy champions are the best way to maximize damage. 

Noxian Diplomacy (Ability 1): This ability allows him to dash toward a distant enemy or unleash massive critical damage on a nearby foe. It’s especially effective after going invisible with Shadow Assault, catching enemies by surprise with its high burst damage. 

Rake (Ability 2): Rake is Talon’s main poke ability. He can use it to harass enemies from a distance without taking any hits himself. 

Assassin’s Path (Ability 3): This ability allows him to gank the enemies easily. However, he needs to be careful where he vaults since the terrain will have a long cooldown after use. 

Shadow Assault (Ultimate): Talon’s ultimate ability helps him quickly take out targets. Its massive burst damage is also a game-changer in team fights.
