Who Wins
- You win pre-6 2v2s through E sustain advantage and W ability to negate Pyke's engage attempts while Tristana outranges their duo.
- Post-6 you maintain control by using W to save Tristana from Pyke's R execute and your superior tankiness in extended fights.
Synergy & Trading
- Use W to devour Tristana when Pyke lands Q hooks, then look for Q slow into auto-attack trades when Pyke's abilities are on cooldown.
- Your best trading windows come after absorbing Pyke's initial combo and using your sustain advantage.
Wave Control/Roaming
- You should roam when Tristana has established wave control and Kog'Maw is farming safely, typically after successful recalls or when mid lane has gank setup.
- Optimal roam timings are when Pyke attempts to roam, allowing you to counter-roam or create pressure elsewhere.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste W on minor poke attempts, save it for Pyke's Q hooks or when Tristana is genuinely threatened by all-in attempts.
- Avoid using Q aggressively without minion advantage, as Pyke's mobility with W and E can easily disengage from your slow engage pattern.
