By locking into the same team as Alistar, he decreases their win rate by -0.1% to 49.3%. This shows that there is only a small synergy between Alistar and Twitch that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.

Twitch has a lower difficulty than Alistar. That means Alistar players don't need to be cautious when lining up Twitch comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a lower level of skill to do well with you.

Playing on the same side, you should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal physical damage. When paired, these champions should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.
