Is Gwen better when played alongside Darius?

There is no ideal champion pairing for Gwen that will no matter what be her ideal synergy. Yet, overall, Darius is a not very good companion for Gwen. By playing on the same team as Gwen, he drops their win rate by -1.2% to 46.9%. This clearly indicates that there is a bad strategic relationship between Gwen and Darius that results in them performing worse together than without each other.

Darius has a much lower diffuclty than Gwen. That means you don't need to be careful when arranging Darius teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a much lower level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Fighting on the same side, Gwen players should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal physical damage. Combined, these champs can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Although, by aligning Gwen and Darius together, you may not be providing your team very much AP. Plan to bring other champs on your team that neutralizes this relative gap in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Darius ally's ability, you should focus on increasing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
