Guide to Synergizing Pyke and Shaco

Tips for Playing as Pyke with Shaco

The Tap version of Bone Skewer is much faster and deals additional damage.

A lot of your agressive spells are also your escapes. Make sure you always have a plan to get out of the fight.

Hitting an enemy with the Hold version of Bone Skewer will always pull them the same distance. Use it in melee range to throw targets behind you.

Pyke is very fragile so don't be afraid to temporarily run from a fight. You can regenerate a significant amount of health from Gift of the Drowned Ones when enemies can't see you.

Advice to Understand How Shaco Will Play

Using Deceive over terrain can help you make a clean escape.

Try getting items with on-hit effects. These will also benefit your Hallucination clone.

Backstab's damage can be increased with increased Critical Damage effects like Infinity Edge.

Is Pyke better when played alongside Shaco?

There is no ideal synergy for Pyke that will always be his top ally. Yet, Shaco is a very typical companion for Pyke. By locking into the same team as Pyke, he lowers their win rate by -0.9% to 48.2%. This clearly indicates that there is only a small synergy between Pyke and Shaco that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.

Shaco has a greater difficulty than Pyke. That means Pyke players need to be very careful when lining up Shaco comrades to play with, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to work well with you.

When playing on the same side, Pyke players should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to destroy wih physical damage. Combined, these two can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

Conversely, by grouping Pyke and Shaco together, you will not be giving your other teammates a lot of AP. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that neutralizes this disparity in their kit.

Regardless of the ability of your Shaco teammate, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
