Guide to Synergizing Gwen and Elise

Tips for Playing as Gwen with Elise

Gwen can still damage enemies outside her Hallowed Mists, especially with her Ultimate's range.

How to Play with Elise as Gwen in LoL

Overall, Gwen sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Elise. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN. This worsening shows that Elise helps Gwen perform poorer in ranked League of Legends matches. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Gwen plays on the same team as Elise, she gets a barely noticable drop in her full damage dealt. This difference may demonstrate that Elise does not support by providing protection for her to dish out more damage or that her presence on the team also helps increase the game's duration. Similarly, when Gwen is played with Elise 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 alongside Elise.

Additionally, when Gwen plays with Elise on the same side, she usually receives less damage than when she fights alone. Taking not as much damage could indicate that Elise does a decent job of covering Gwen during team fights.

Is Gwen better when played alongside Elise?

There is no perfect ally for Gwen that will 100% of the time be her best teammate. However, Elise is a terrible ally for Gwen. By being on the same team as Gwen, she drops their win rate by -5.4% to 42.7%. This shows that there is a very bad bond between Gwen and Elise that results in them performing worse together than without each other.

Elise has a much greater difficulty compared to Gwen. That means you should be careful when arranging Elise allies to fight alongside, as they will have to have a much greater level of skill to do well with you.

When playing together, Gwen players should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to dish out massive AD. Together, these champions can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Conversely, by pairing Gwen and Elise together, you may not be providing your other teammates enough crowd control. Make sure to bring other champions on your team that neutralizes this disparity in this pairing's kit.

Regardless of the ability of your Elise teammate, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
