Overview

Use (Q) and brush control to deny Pyke's hook angle and protect ADC access.
Prioritize shielding and peeling for scaling ADCs to survive Pyke's burst and execute threat.
Track Pyke's roam timer after wave crashes to maintain river vision and prevent mid pressure.

Trading pattern

Shield ADC's key trades and hold (Q) to interrupt Pyke's engage or pull attempts.
Deny brush control to limit Pyke's hook threat and force him into predictable angles.
Use (W) slow to peel and create space when Pyke commits to engage.

Danger windows

Pyke's level 2 hook and stun combo threaten ADC access and require holding peel cooldowns.
Pyke's brush and fog control create unpredictable engage angles that can isolate ADC.

Use wave state to keep ADC safe and prevent Pyke from roaming effectively.

Level 3 completes peel kit, enabling confident shield trades and brush control.
Level 6 (R) provides fight reset and disengage, crucial to counter Pyke's all-in and execute.

Win conditions

Convert brush denial and (Q) knockup into safe ADC trades and denied enemy engage.
Maintain river vision and punish Pyke's roams by crashing waves and matching mid pressure.
Use (R) to reset fights and protect scaling ADC through Pyke's execute attempts.
