A renowned harpooner from the slaughter docks of Bilgewater, Pyke should have met his death in the belly of a gigantic jaull-fish… and yet, he returned. Now, stalking the dank alleys and backways of his former hometown, he uses his new supernatural gifts to bring a swift and gruesome end to those who make their fortune by exploiting others—and a city that prides itself on hunting monsters now finds a monster hunting them.

Tips

Playing as Pyke

  • Pyke is very fragile so don't be afraid to temporarily run from a fight. You can regenerate a significant amount of health from Gift of the Drowned Ones when enemies can't see you.
  • Hitting an enemy with the Hold version of Bone Skewer will always pull them the same distance. Use it in melee range to throw targets behind you.
  • The Tap version of Bone Skewer is much faster and deals additional damage.
  • A lot of your agressive spells are also your escapes. Make sure you always have a plan to get out of the fight.

Playing against Pyke

  • Pyke regenerates a significant amount of damage he has taken from enemy champions, but only when you can't see him!
  • When Pyke is hidden nearby in his Ghostwater Dive, sharks will circle underneath your feet.
  • Try not to stand near low health allies. If Pyke executes them using Death From Below, you might be next on the list.
