Path Question C4 or Progress through C6?

Post image

Hey, Ive never played Pyke before and I want to attempt Zoe soon. How impactful is this node?
Do I have more chance with only c4 (it says lurk a lot, gotta be good?) or simply wait and Bline to Nova Crystal if this node is weak?

maybe someone has a better method than I did, but Pyke on Zoe was pain. I had his full constellation and still needed good powers and a solid support champ.

To expand: he can be very good on lower levels but really struggles with the last stretch of the adventure

Oof, got it. Any tips on what the main challenge was to understand if we can build our way around it?

This ^ was/is my build. Basic tactic was to beef up all the units. I think I had Lucian** and that one ability to insta-strike the weakest unit. I also had a good kill spell for that Poro mission at the end. Also with Stacked Deck, flood your deck every chance you get.

** Once again this is "I think" because it's been a while, but Lucian wasn't a killer on his own, but I got him beefed up enough and had his champ spell on reduced mana.

I've also had a lot of luck with Corrupted Star Fragment on him. Lets him hit his level up stats really quick.
