Pyke's role is an assassin, there is no 'support' champion role in the new system. He very much fits into the description of an assassin. Whether he's played as and is intended to play as a support on summoner's rift is a different question - most supports will tend to be one of the subclasses of enchanter (I can't remember what they're called, but it's like assassin being a subclass of slayer, the other being skirmishers (or duelist) like yasuo and fiora.) or wardens, a subclass of tank. Pyke does have some elements of enchanters, having more crowd control and ability to set up enemies for his team, giving him some of his supportive capabilities, but he's still very much an assassin.
