StageFavouredWhy

Level 2PykeLevel 2 is yours as an unattached Yuumi can't peel your all-in on her carry.
Level 3PykeLevel 3 favors you since bush hooks punish every detach-to-poke window.
Levels 4-5PykeLevels 4-5 stay yours because you can force engages before her shields stack.
Level 6PykeLevel 6 is a Pyke spike: R executes the carry she's enabling before she rattaches.
First itemPykeFirst item keeps you ahead with roam pressure to catch her isolated ADC.
Two+ itemsPykeAt 2+ items your pick threat still forces the fight before her scaling takes over.

How to beat Yuumi as Pyke: the early game

Levels 1-2 are yours: Yuumi provides no lockdown and her ADC has to walk up alone to farm. Bush-camp and threaten Q (Bone Skewer) so every last-hit risks a hook, and when she detaches to Q poke you punish the opening. She can't peel a hook while she's floating, so your level-2 all-in is a real kill threat. She cannot be touched while attached and cannot stop a hook on her carry, so aim everything at their ADC. Charge from the brush where the wind-up is hidden, hold the dash-stun for his escape, and let the grey health carry you through whatever they poke back.
