Pyke

Pyke breaks the support mold entirely. Rated 9 in attack with a difficulty of 7, he is an assassin wearing a support badge — a melee roamer who trades the usual shields and heals for executions and gold generation, also seeing niche play in mid lane.

His passive, Gift of the Drowned Ones, defines his unusual durability model: he cannot gain bonus maximum health from any source, converting it into bonus attack damage instead, and he regenerates recent champion damage while hidden from enemies. This means Pyke fights in short, violent bursts, slips out of vision to restore his health, and comes right back in.

Hooks, Stealth and Executions

Bone Skewer offers a choice: a quick stab up close or a charged pull that drags an enemy toward him, functioning as one of the deadliest hook abilities among supports. Ghostwater Dive grants camouflage and decaying Move Speed, enabling roams to mid lane, flanks in fights and passive-fueled recovery. Phantom Undertow adds mobility and crowd control at once — he dashes, and the phantom left behind returns to him, stunning champions in its path.

Death From Below is the payoff: Pyke blinks to an area and executes low-health enemies outright, resetting on a kill and granting bonus gold to an assisting ally, so his kills never starve his carry. He suits aggressive, high-tempo players who would rather create kills across the whole map than babysit a lane.
