Is Kai'Sa better when played alongside Taliyah?

There is no universally accepted best champion pairing for Kai'Sa that will always be her #1 teammate. However, overall, Taliyah is a very typical ally for Kai'Sa. By being on the same team as Kai'Sa, she decreases their win rate by -1.0% to 45.5%. This demonstrates that there is a weak strategic relationship between Kai'Sa and Taliyah that allows them to perform worse together than alone.

Taliyah has a lower difficulty than Kai'Sa. That means Kai'Sa players don't need to be careful when finding Taliyah allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a lower level of skill to do well with you.

Fighting alongside, you will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to tank a lot of damage. Together, these champs will be able to tank for the rest of their team.

Although, by grouping Kai'Sa and Taliyah together, you may not be granting your other allies enough crowd control. Plan to include other champs on your team that neutralizes this relative disparity in their potential.

Regardless of your Taliyah ally's skill level, you should focus on increasing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
