Is Gwen better when played alongside Vladimir?

There is no ideal ally for Gwen that will always be her top teammate. Yet, overall, Vladimir is a very typical companion for Gwen. By being on the same side as Gwen, he increases their win rate by 0.3% to 48.4%. This demonstrates that there is not really a strong synergy between Gwen and Vladimir that results in them performing stronger together than without each other.

Vladimir has a greater difficulty than Gwen. That means you need to be cautious when enlisting Vladimir teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a greater level of skill to fight well with you.

Working alongside, Gwen players should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magical damage. Together, these champs can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.

In contrast, by bringing Gwen and Vladimir together, you will not be providing your side enough crowd control. We recommend you pick other champions on your team that neutralizes this relative hole in their kit.

Regardless of the ability of your Vladimir teammate, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
