Who Wins

  • You lose level 2 all-ins due to Pyke's hook and Ashe's slow making your Q unreliable, but you win level 6 trades with your ultimate's stasis disrupting their engage combos.
  • Your portal can help Caitlyn reposition away from Pyke hooks while your Q can interrupt his charge.

Synergy & Trading

  • Look for Q stuns through minions when Pyke steps up for hooks, then follow with meep-enhanced auto attacks while Caitlyn places traps.
  • Your best trades happen when you can Q-stun one enemy while they're separated, allowing Caitlyn to follow up with headshot combos.

Wave Control/Roaming

  • Yes, roam frequently after level 6 when you have ultimate and portal mobility.
  • Optimal timings are when Caitlyn has pushed the wave and can farm safely under tower, or when your jungler is invading/contesting objectives.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't use your portal aggressively early game as Pyke can easily hook you or Caitlyn when you exit.
  • Avoid collecting chimes when Pyke has hook available, as the movement makes you predictable and vulnerable to his engage.
