One of these champions is not usually played in this lane — treat the verdict as a rough guide.
How to play it
- Press early
Garen is stronger in the first levels — shove and deny farm.
- Cut the healing
Pyke sustains — Chempunk Chainsword on your first back.
- Don't chase
Pyke escapes faster than you — take farm and towers instead of running.
- Physical resistance
Pyke deals physical damage — Death's Dance as your 2nd or 3rd item.
- Full combo or nothing
Pyke is squishy — wait for every ability, go in once. No half-combo trades.
When you are in danger
- Full HP or back off
Pyke's burst kills from half HP. No trades under 60%, and buy Dawnshroud early.
