Vision deficit: Struggling in both the matchup and vision control (0.85 vs 0.97 wards/min) demands defensive warding and heavy jungle coordination. Damage doesn't equal wins: Pyke outputs more damage (392 vs 299/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup. The issue likely lies in survivability, mobility, or damage timing rather than raw output. Complete dominance by Janna: leads in both matchup win rate (51.1%) and KDA (3.30 vs 2.20, 5th vs 41st place). Pyke players need exceptional preparation to overcome this counter-pick.
