Lux into Pykemedium

Overview

Prioritize shielding and positioning to protect ADC from Pyke's hook and execute threat.
Maintain river vision to track Pyke's roam timer and prevent mid or dragon pressure.

Use poke to zone Pyke and bait out his hook before committing.
Hold root to punish overextensions or missed Pyke engages and enable ADC burst.
Maintain shield for peel when Pyke's engage cooldowns are up to protect ADC access.

Pyke's hook combined with ADC burst creates high kill threat; stay behind minions and avoid isolation.
stealth enables surprise engages from brush; deny brush control and ward river entrances.
Roam windows after Pyke crashes wave leave ADC vulnerable; crash waves and match roams to keep ADC safe.

Win level 2 by coordinating root with ADC burst to punish Pyke's engage.
Deny brush control to limit Pyke's hook angles and reduce enemy pick potential.
Crash wave safely before roaming to keep ADC protected against Pyke's roam threat.

Level 2 unlocks Pyke's hook plus stun; respect this by holding for peel.
Level 6 execute resets increase all-in threat; track ultimate cooldown to avoid risky trades.
First completed mage item improves Lux's poke and wave control; increase pressure while maintaining vision.

Convert poke and root control into denied enemy ADC positioning and safe ADC access.
Use river vision and wave state to punish Pyke's roam attempts and secure dragon setup.
Coordinate ultimate with ADC follow-up for picks or defensive resets to control teamfight entry.
