[@nickthelast7356]

Pyke's design is so wacky. Not only does he convert bonus hp into damage with garbage scaling which is already an L, he doesn't even have the option of building any hp items in the first place, since all of his abilities scale with lethality. Lethality arguably being one of the worst things to build in this season and especially as a roaming underleveled support.

[@shubhod9569]

his hp passive is to nerf him, it's not a build around, he has way too much utility and mobility on his kit to allow him to be tanky lol that's why they had to do that. imagine a full tank pyke with all that cc and an execute (that didn't scale with lethality). would be so insane

[@jfk4930]

@@shubhod9569 still the fact that the titanic doesn't take into account the bonus hp he actually has... i mean he did buy them so it should count imo

[@mainquecollado4925]

@@jfk4930 cause he didnt has bonus hp, he convert that bonus hp on AD

[@ZerglingOne1]

@@jfk4930 And the reason for that is the existence of Warmog's Armor. Pyke has already had a ton of changes to his gray health passive...we don't need a Pyke that can never be shoved out of lane for any reason.

[@periberry7345]

You asked what we want to see more of, I couldn't think of anything then.. but. This! Seeing such a highly skilled and knowledgeable player do goofy stuff like this is amazing cause even if it's dumb you're smart enough to know exactly what to do to make it work!

[@Philly._.P]

Yo Dave if you go that build you should go ingenious hunter because the cd works on heartsteel. Love the vid tho!

[@moron0000]

Waaait a minute... 350g -> 10 AD = 1AD per 35 gold 400g -> 12 AD = 1AD per 33.33 gold It's unironically more efficient, granted you ignore pyke's lethality scalings.

[@Chr1sT0fu]

Which you shouldn't

[@General_Draco]

Just go normal lethality after.

[@ibg5843]

Not 12 ad, hp is converted on a ratio where 14 hp is 1 ad so ruby crystal is 10 and 5/7

[@theosuxx]

@@General_Draco yea but u will have less leth and no assassin mythic passive its still worse kinda, but thinking that u get the proc damage and health it could be just an alternative deffensive build

[@otakusatanist]

@@theosuxx you don't get the health

[@faisalalbeedh6544]

3:52 25 AD pickaxe is 875 its more gold efficient building HP for AD when u dont take into account lethality as someone mentioned

[@the_soggster3464]

A bonus 112 AD (counting the item's hp) by the end of the video with Heartsteel lmao

[@hedonistic_ambition9060]

cool vid, hoping for more high elo gameplay in the future tho

[@thedumbone2687]

While he has shit scaling with bonus hp, if build your legendaries normally you get the same outcome just with bonus AD depending on the stacks you got

[@jimmyting1103]

Inside me their are two wolves they are pyke and Rammus fighting over stacks…and they’re kissing

[@killerlu4541]

Should've gone overgrowth for maximum ad memege

another great thumbnail dave! 👍👍

[@easystuff217]

Goose is so funny. Loved this video thx

[@YouJustDidnt]

19:30 you did him dirty

[@AlohaCxbe]

pyke should get a passive rework where he has like vladimir’s passive but for ad, would be stronger of course, so they would have to nerf his base resistances

[@etlutor2739]

you cant go warmogs on pyke hes the only champion that doesnt get regen with all the hp to proc the passive

[@JohnBourthis]

Awesome video man, keep them comming!

[@Kiseichuwu]

i would've much preferred actual high level gameplay instead of smurfing on people in bronze. And an actual conclusion/your thoughts on the item in the end

pyke should get at least some hp from items imo

[@seikyi]

what elo is this?

[@ssinji1185]

this game he was bronze 2

[@rosegold608]

Is prowlers the Best mythic now?

[@l1g3ii]

prowlers are for the ppl that cant use daskblade, dask blade has a passive that slows ppl and if u can E+auto and walk behind u will hit stun, but it is easy to do with prowlers, so basically if u are unskilled use prowlers but if u can manage skill use duskblade coz u aslo get an invise that helps u get out of combat when u R into whole team ;d i personally love duskblade coz i can do combos with it, prowlers are for ppl who cant even hit their E

[@l1g3ii]

dave also made a video about pyke combos where he uses duskblade, watch it and u will see a difference there

[@noodles65]

prowlers has much better burst and the lethality helps especially post-durability patch where squishies can get up to 90ish armor mid-late. they’re both good though

[@Kiseichuwu]

@@l1g3ii what are you saying bro ? lets drop the ego a little bit and actually think about what we are saying. First off Prowlers and Duskblade are 90% preference. However if you are comfortable with building both then usually Prowlers is good in games where enemy champions cant evade the prowlers or you really desperately need more lethality. Duskblade offers more survivability and CD for your ult due to its Mythic Passive, while Prowlers allows for really insane picks and flashy plays, however it has a fairly long CD. Also on your "prowlers is for people who cant hit E" point, what a weird take, considering Duskblade auto procc literally allows you to hit your E for free.

[@junwan421]

@@Kiseichuwu totally agree. The choice is situational, not skill-based. If I have to choose, prowler is actually the one which allows for more combos.
