Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.
Except for rare builds, Pyke deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Leona has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.
An important advantage of Pyke is superior vision control (ranked 4th among supports) (versus 9th for Leona), which provides better map control and safety for the team in important map areas. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.6 versus 2.2) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.
In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Pyke player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Leona player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.
