Guide to Synergizing Yorick and Pyke

Tips for Playing as Yorick with Pyke

You do not need to cast Awakening to regain the ability to cast Last Rites.

You can send the Maiden down a lane alone, be careful though, as she represents a large portion of your combat power.

The Maiden will attempt to assist you in a fight, so choose your targets well.

Advice to Understand How Pyke Will Play

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.

This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Pyke.

Is Yorick better when played alongside Pyke?

There is no one best synergy for Yorick that will always be his best synergy. However, overall, Pyke is a very typical ally for Yorick. By playing on the same side as Yorick, he lowers their win rate by -0.7% to 49.6%. This clearly indicates that there is not really a strong bond between Yorick and Pyke that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

Pyke has a greater difficulty than Yorick. That means Yorick players need to be very careful when arranging Pyke teammates to fight alongside, as they will need a greater level of skill to play well with you.

When playing cooperatively, Yorick players should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal physical damage. Together, these champions should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Conversely, by aligning Yorick and Pyke together, you will not be giving your other teammates very much magic damage. Make sure to include other champs on your team that neutralizes this disparity in their abilities.

Regardless of your Pyke ally's ability, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well, regardless.
