How to Play with Aphelios as Kayle in LoL

Overall, Kayle sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Aphelios. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Aphelios helps Kayle perform poorer in ranked League games. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is only marginal.

This could demonstrate that Aphelios doesn't help protection for her to dish out more damage or that his participation also helps increase the game's duration. Similarly, when Kayle is played with Aphelios on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Aphelios.

Additionally, when Kayle plays with Aphelios on the same team, she typically receives a little less damage than when she fights alone. Taking not as much damage could mean that Aphelios does a decent job of protecting Kayle during teamfights.

Is Kayle better when played alongside Aphelios?

There is no ideal ally for Kayle that will always be her ideal ally. However, Aphelios is a not very good teammate for Kayle. By locking into the same side as Kayle, he drops their win rate by -1.9% to 49.4%. This demonstrates that there is a negative bond between Kayle and Aphelios that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.

Aphelios has a greater difficulty than Kayle. That means you need to be cautious when arranging Aphelios allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

When playing on the same side, you should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to dish out massive AD. When paired, these champions can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

In contrast, by bringing Kayle and Aphelios together, you will not be granting your other teammates very much support. Plan to include other champions on your team that offsets this relative disparity in their capabilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Aphelios teammate, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
