Overall, Leona sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Vi. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN.

This change may signal that Vi supports by providing protection for her to deal more damage or that her presence also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Leona is played with Vi on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays without Vi. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Vi.
Moreover, when Leona plays with Vi on the same team, she on average receives a little more damage than when she fights alone. Taking more damage could mean that Vi does a poor job of protecting Leona in teamfights.

Vi has a lower difficulty than Leona. That means you don't need to be careful when arranging Vi comrades to fight alongside, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to do well with you.
When playing alongside, Leona players should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to tank a lot of damage. Combined, these champions will be able to tank for the rest of their team.
Although, by grouping Leona and Vi together, you may not be granting your team very much magical damage output. We recommend you bring other champions on your team that neutralizes this relative disparity in this pairing's playstyle.
Regardless of the ability of your Vi ally, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
