How to Play with Leona as Jax in LoL

The Jax Leona synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Leona, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Jax sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Leona. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN. This worsening shows that Leona helps Jax perform worse in ranked League of Legends games. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Jax is an ally to Leona, he observes a little decrease in his complete damage dealt. This may indicate that Leona does not provide cover for him to deal more damage or that her presence on the team also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Jax is played with Leona on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays without Leona. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Leona.

Additionally, when Jax plays with Leona on the same side, he on average receives a little less damage than when he fights alone. Receiving not as much damage may mean that Leona does a decent job of covering Jax during team fights.

Is Jax better when played alongside Leona?

There is no perfect champion pairing for Jax that will always be his best ally. Yet, overall, Leona is a very typical ally for Jax. By locking into the same side as Jax, she raises their win rate by 0.7% to 51.5%. This demonstrates that there is a weak bond between Jax and Leona that allows them to perform at the top of their game together than without each other.

Leona has a lower difficulty than Jax. That means you don't need to be cautious when finding Leona teammates to play with, as they will require a lower level of skill to be able to play well with you.

When playing on the same side, Jax players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to buff allies and debuff enemies. When paired, these champions may be able to carry with the power of their abilities.

Conversely, by pairing Jax and Leona together, you may not be giving your other teammates very much magical damage output. Plan to bring other champions on your team that fills this relative gap in their potential.
