Is Gwen better when played alongside Syndra?

There is no perfect ally for Gwen that will always be her ideal synergy. However, Syndra is a not very good ally for Gwen. By being on the same team as Gwen, she decreases their win rate by -1.5% to 46.6%. This clearly indicates that there is a bad strategic relationship between Gwen and Syndra that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Syndra has a greater difficulty than Gwen. That means Gwen players should be very careful when enlisting Syndra allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a greater level of skill to fight well with you.

Playing alongside, Gwen players will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magical damage. Combined, these champions are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.

In contrast, by bringing Gwen and Syndra together, you may not be giving your other allies much protection for burst damage. Make sure to pick other champions on your team that neutralizes this hole in their abilities.

Regardless of your Syndra ally's ability, you should focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
