ADC Thresh is gross in ARAM. Just got an S+ with him. Thought we were doomed because they had 3 ADCs, but those squishies fell apart under my wrath.

This doesn't look like a support.

He looks crazy strong, and fun - to play AS.
Maybe not so fun to play AGAINST.
Gap closer, hook, gap closer ult, speed & invisibility, slow...
Can he use his stundash through walls, I wonder? If so, he can slow with q, run away fast and invisible, and then jump over a wall. Even if he can't jump over a wall, he'll be quite the escape artist as a solo laner.
Foxdrop did a video on his jingling potential, and yeah - invisibly come in, hook, stun, and share the kill.

They mention somewhere in his abilities page that he's fairly squishy.
"His high mobility is also offset by low survivability: Pyke is easily punished if he dives deep for a kill he can't quite finish. "
Seems more like a mobile assassin (with a good amount of cc) type.
Edit: and I don't think we have any numbers on anything yet, as far as scaling or mana or cool downs etc.
I guess support have to kill and be in the front line now....jeez Riot
Maybe his E is good for waveclear, but then you can't use it as an escape, like Fizz's E.
Of course, you could w and run away, or slow and run away...
Yes it's a support. Considering other hooks and dashes, his cooldowns are likely gonna be pretty high so I don't see him working on other roles.
Saw some Youtuber saying they'd have videos up of him next week (PBE release?) but not sure when he'll be available to public. Is there a usual window from PBE to us unwashed masses?
Edit: already on PBE, videos are up

aha, thanks
yeah I guess that does kinda suck. gonna have to relearn pathing, I guess? not that I ever really figured it out to begin with tho
scuttle also spawns on one side now, either dragon or baron. Gives more gold to compensate.
These ARAM changes look really fun...

I must be crazy, but I've jumped back into this game and I'm playing a match or two most nights. I can't believe how badly my skills eroded away, but I'm seeing moments where the mechanics are coming back (like winning a 1v1 against Jax as Nami under my turret). It's just really hard to re-integrate with the changes, and I can't believe how bad I am at positioning in fights and in hectic moments during laning right now.
For once I was platinum, now I am bronze. For real. I expect to re-adapt and climb quickly, however.

You can? You used to be able to in the old client, atleast.
Pretty hyped as well. Much prefer it to the normal one. Will be playing a shit ton of ARAM while it is up.
I saw him in a few of my ARAM matches.
I'll say this: Either there is a bug or when he does his W where he turns invisble, he remains invisible until he attacks cuz he'd suddenly pop up at one of my team mates in one game I played O_o
Still what's his suggested build? Straight AD Pen assassination?
Oh snaps got Lancer Wukong shard from a Loot Box. Got some other skins I'd be interested in too but I need a max. of 2050 Yellow Essence to unlock them =_=
Hmm thing is untargetable =/= stealthed far as I know.
The Rito gods did not believe in the you that believed in them.
Clearly didn't believe hard enough. :(
On the other hand, 70% off the Order of the Lotus Karma skin in My Shop. Didn't have any skins for her yet, so that's nice and only 292 RP I guess. Got a skin for most of my supports, only missing a Nami skin atm.
I'm pretty happy with my shop... Definitely getting the Orianna. I might pick up Vel'koz's and Singed's skins too.
Simple: Don't play crit ADCs.
Kaisa Ezreal Lucian and MF are effectively the only ADCs in the game right now. Just go Rageblade on Kaisa, normal Ez builds, ER or Bork on Lucian and Lethality MF
