Aurora matchup: Smash. Quite similar to Sylas it's very hard to assure lethal while ganking her. Ideally land hook before her W lands to avoid her invisibility. Locket rush has very high value to not get nuked by her.

Sylas matchup: Can essentially do anything against you. He has 3 realistic ways to avoid your ultimate (E dash, W heal and Zhonyas). Quite vulnerbale to ganks early however (if mid/top).

Morgana matchup: A patience game with this champ tbh, Mercs rush. ideally play for roams or, if possible, look for E lineups that hit more than 1.

Elise matchup: Must have Bone Plating. Otherwise a question wheter u manage to track her roams and ideally negate them.

Rell matchup: Simply a very strong Champion to face in general. Attempt to read her flash timers later in the game and if possible to counter her potential flash W+R combo with a precise hook.

Soraka matchup: Mostly a skill check on if short hook is mastered. If yes, then lane becomes alot easier. Also very effective to not play for lethal Ults but mobile Ults (R+QE or E+R).

Heimerdinger matchup: Not alot to do early game as he falls off harder. If your ADC is unable to clear his Q, just be patient because Heimerdinger players expect you to throw somehow.

LeBlanc matchup: very XD champ, but quite weak once you have Locket/Hexdrinker. If she ever uses W to poke your ADC and they didn't explode by it, then you have a large window to look for engage. Can hug ADC to block her E.

Blitzcrank matchup: Must buy EoN over Umbal Glaive. Ideally he focuses hooks on you, since your E cd is always lower than his Q.

Lux matchup: Scary if paired with high burst ADC's (Jhin&Caitlyn). Look out for Mikael's if there is a 2nd threat.

Rakan matchup: Mostly just a hinderance and no threat. Similar to Rell try tracking flash timer and prevent his R + Flash W engages with a precise Q or even a well placed E.

Thresh matchup: Matchup gets 3x easier when warding his W is trained. Short hook check can also be done, however a skilled Thresh can win it quite often. Also check for Mikael's value.

Janna matchup: Similar to Soraka but less punishing. Short hooks and higher paced combos (R+QE or E+R).

Poppy matchup: Keep distance & Hug ADC if Q up. Quite immobile when not engaging, therefore quite easy to chunk when landing Q with Glacial Augment.

Renata Glasc matchup: if not outmatched by ADC power, then easy to catch. Very immobile and reliant on brute forcing. Can easily use R once her W is popped.

Karma matchup: Serpents over Umbral, otherwise quite simple. Karma relies alot on movementspeed instead of dashes, making Glacial Augment quite lethal for her.

Braum matchup: Bait Braum Q, then exploit overextend. With Glacial Augment quite easy for ADC's to stack Lethal Tempo and chunk him. Don't bother all-ins until lead established.

Lulu matchup: Seprents over Umbral, don't dive if not advantageous. Skilled Lulu's will attempt landing W or even R to cancel your momentum, simply keep space and utilize Glacial Augment.

Taric matchup: Must have antiheal ASAP, otherwise very immobile.

Camille matchup: Hug ADC at all times to potentially lineup E. Can always hold Q to cancel her E. Note that Locket has very high value to negate her Q² burst.

Nautilus matchup: Quite easy matchup actually, requires awareness on Hook vs Hook buffer.

Bardo matchup: Pick up Bone plating to deny Electro+Cheapshot. Alot easier with this approach since we're not looking to threaten lethal on our own.

Neeko matchup: Surprisingly easy to deny her Ult engage with Q. Similar to Rell track her flash timer. Note that her W cooldown only starts ticking when the clone does. Averaging a potential +3s up to +10s CD to abuse.

Seraphine matchup: Only a threat when paired with Ashe. Otherwise only consider Mikael's if your team has 1 highly valuable target for Seraphine R. Note to Ashe paired matchup that Unflinching has immense value.

Alistar matchup: Can cancel his W+Q combo by hooking him or E dodge. Just make sure to avoid hooking while he has flash advantage over your ADC.

Tahm Kench matchup: Big victim to getting caught, serpents value check. Can potentially always hold Q for his W. Note that Tahm Kench W has an audio cue even when out of vision ⇒ put SFX a tiny bit higher if possible.

Nami matchup: Pacing decided by adc draft, nonetheless quite easy.

Leona matchup: Mikael's rush 👍, also hug ADC early and hold E. Very easy matchup when not forced to burst. Play with range and possibly isolate her before a fight to chunk.

Pantheon matchup: Can avoid his stun with Q or buffer E.

Zilean matchup: Very weak to being slowed. Later on always keep a way out with E when looking for a catch.

Senna matchup: If enemy has high AD draft, rush Frozen Heart over Locket. A simple matchup really, very weak to slows and if necessary buy antiheal.

Sona matchup: Make sure that your team has both serpents & antiheal. If no one seems willing to buy either, get both.

Milio matchup: By far weakest cc against Pyke Q. Milio players tend to throw Q for fun sometimes, which is deadly for him since your Q has the same CD. Simply stepping up can be enough to bait his Q.

Yuumi matchup: Yuumi. Tbf most ADC's paired to Yuumi are quite decent into Pyke (Tristana, Ezreal, Zeri), however if Prio is easy to obtain ⇒ hold junglers hand and invade.
