Is Gwen better when played alongside Poppy?
There is no one best ally for Gwen that will 100% of the time be her best teammate. Yet, Poppy is a very typical ally for Gwen. By being on the same team as Gwen, she has no effect on their win rate by 0.0% to 48.1%. This shows that there is not really a strong strategic relationship between Gwen and Poppy that results in them performing at the same level together than alone.
Poppy has a greater difficulty than Gwen. That means you should be cautious when enlisting Poppy allies to play with, as they will need a greater level of skill to be able to do well with you.
Playing cooperatively, Gwen players should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal physical damage. When paired, these champs can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.
Although, by aligning Gwen and Poppy together, you will not be providing your team enough magic damage. We recommend you have other champions on your team that offsets this hole in this pairing's capabilities.
Regardless of your Poppy ally's skill level, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you will do well, regardless.
