my best advice for piker: get a friend!

did you ever saw one pikeman+ one fast mauler+ one shielder...

impossible to beat, shieldy get arrow, pike poke and mauler crush you with over head while piker attack as soon as you try to hit the mauler, and cav basically got killed by piker

also, a lot of cav love e-peening by killing pikeman, my tip: let them go near and kill them if they underestimate reach, if they charge: title and you'll see and try a magic jump return tostop horsy (very difficult, you'll get killed by good cav)

also, beware of couching cav as they can grave kill you

This. I just recently started piking and if you're by yourself you're dead. But with teammates and being aware of the situation your squad can outlast (almost) anything. Something to add, don't pay too much attention to your K/D because again the pike is ultimately a support weapon. By just poking you either stagger them or force them to downblock which creates openings for others to take advantage of. And use the jump stab in moderation good players expect it. Use it on downed cav or that extra bit of reach don't constantly do it.
