Overall, Kai'Sa sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Gwen. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN.

This may signal that Gwen doesn't help cover for her to deal more damage or that her support also helps increase the game's duration. Similarly, when Kai'Sa is played together with Gwen on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Gwen.
Additionally, when Kai'Sa plays with Gwen on the same side, she often takes a little less damage than when she fights alone. Receiving not as much damage may mean that Gwen does a decent job of covering Kai'Sa in team fights.
