This shows that there is an easy to overcome and exploit bond between Hwei and Annie that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

Annie has a much lower diffuclty than Hwei. That means you don't need to be very careful when enlisting Annie allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a much lower level of skill to fight well with you.

When playing cooperatively, Hwei players will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magical damage. When paired, these champs can blast through enemies with magic damage.
