Guide to Synergizing Graves and Sivir

Tips for Playing as Graves with Sivir

Smoke Screen can be used both to escape and to set up a kill.

Using Quickdraw to get into range and delivering a point blank Buckshot can do lots of damage.

Advice to Understand How Sivir Will Play

Sivir's Boomerang Blade returns to her after reaching the max range, so you can shift position to hit enemies who would otherwise have evaded it.

Try saving Spell Shield for enemy abilities that can disable you such as stuns and roots.

Ricochet resets Sivir's basic attack timer on activation, so activating this immediately after landing a normal basic attack will maximize damage output.

Is Graves better when played alongside Sivir?

There is no perfect champion pairing for Graves that will 100% of the time be his top teammate. However, overall, Sivir is a below average teammate for Graves. By locking into the same team as Graves, she decreases their win rate by -3.0% to 47.5%. This demonstrates that there is a harmful bond between Graves and Sivir that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

Sivir has a greater difficulty than Graves. That means you must be careful when arranging Sivir teammates to fight alongside, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to cooperate well with you.

Working on the same side, you will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal physical damage. Together, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

In contrast, by bringing Graves and Sivir together, you will not be granting your other allies a great deal of magic damage. Plan to include other champions on your team that offsets this relative hole in their potential.

Regardless of your Sivir ally's skill level, you need to focus on increasing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
