I still think that Pyke gameplay-wise is a mistake as it stands. Like the idea of Assassin/Support but comes more as an Assassin that was forced to than one that's fully capable of playing either without being an issue on both, which to this day is still the case, rather was expecting an "AD Rakan" than what we got. However, part of the pre-season changes are a rework Support itemization (Removing Coin item-line, making two item lines for both Shield and Spellthief respectively so four routes to take, two of which grant AD) plus Lethality itemization (adjustments to Duskblade and Youmuu's, QoL changes to Veil, and a new item to splitpush), so they are adding tools for AD-based champions to play as Supports, so hopefully Pyke can be redeemed by giving him a QoL-rework once they hit live to adjust acordingly.

In regards to Senna's displayed ability, I think it will be an anti-projectile barrier that's granted to the first allied champion struck by the ability (and does something different when it strikes an enemy champion), that's oriented either in the projectile's direction or on the closest enemy champion's direction, similar to packing Braum's W-E combo onto a projectile.
