How to Play with Kai'Sa as Ahri in LoL

The Ahri Kai'Sa synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Kai'Sa, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Ahri sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Kai'Sa. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This decrease shows that Kai'Sa helps Ahri perform not as well in ranked League matches. Yet, the small difference shows that this performance change is only marginal.

When Ahri is an ally to Kai'Sa, she observes a marginal improvement in her complete damage output. This could demonstrate that Kai'Sa helps provide cover for her to deal more damage or that her allyship also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Ahri is played together with Kai'Sa on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Kai'Sa.

Additionally, when Ahri plays with Kai'Sa on the same team, she usually takes a little more damage than when she plays alone. Getting dealt more damage may mean that Kai'Sa does a poor job of covering Ahri during team fights.

Is Ahri better when played alongside Kai'Sa?

There is no top ally for Ahri that will always be her ideal synergy. However, overall, Kai'Sa is a terrible companion for Ahri. By being on the same side as Ahri, she decreases their win rate by -4.0% to 44.2%. This demonstrates that there is a very bad bond between Ahri and Kai'Sa that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Kai'Sa has a greater difficulty than Ahri. That means Ahri players must be cautious when enlisting Kai'Sa comrades to play with, as they will need a greater level of skill to be able to play well with you.

When playing together, Ahri players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal physical damage. When paired, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Conversely, by bringing Ahri and Kai'Sa together, you may not be granting your side enough support. Make sure to have other champions on your team that fills this hole in this pairing's abilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Kai'Sa teammate, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
