Is Lucian better when played alongside Wukong?

There is no universally accepted best champion pairing for Lucian that will always be his top ally. Yet, Wukong is a very typical teammate for Lucian. By playing on the same team as Lucian, he increases their win rate by 0.1% to 48.9%. This demonstrates that there is a weak synergy between Lucian and Wukong that allows them to perform stronger together than alone.

Wukong has a much lower diffuclty than Lucian. That means you don't need to be very careful when enlisting Wukong allies to fight alongside, as they will need a much lower level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Working together, you should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to dish out massive AD. Together, these two can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

In contrast, by bringing Lucian and Wukong together, you will not be granting your team enough magic damage. Make sure to pick other champs on your team that offsets this relative hole in this pairing's capabilities.

Regardless of your Wukong ally's skill level, you need to focus on maximizing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well anyway.
