While statistically Soraka is slightly stronger than Pyke as support, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage in this matchup. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.
The magic damage that Soraka deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Pyke deals mainly physical damage (77.16%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.
Consider the excellent vision control demonstrated by Pyke, ranking 9th (versus 38th for Soraka) in ward placement among supports. This means the opponent provides better map vision for their team. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.2 versus 2.9) suggests they are less effective in team fights.
Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Soraka player to maintain constant pressure on Pyke, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
