How to Play with Neeko as Lucian in LoL

The Lucian Neeko synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Neeko, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Lucian sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Neeko. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This drop shows that Neeko helps Lucian perform worse in ranked League games. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is only marginal.

When Lucian is an ally to Neeko, he gets a barely noticable drop in his full damage dealt. This change could demonstrate that Neeko does not help protection for him to dish out more damage or that her participation also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Lucian is played together with Neeko on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays without Neeko. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Neeko.

Moreover, when Lucian plays with Neeko on the same team, he on average takes a little more damage than when he fights alone. Receiving more damage may mean that Neeko does a poor job of protecting Lucian in teamfights.

Is Lucian better when played alongside Neeko?

There is no top synergy for Lucian that will always be his top ally. Yet, Neeko is a relatively poor ally for Lucian. By playing on the same team as Lucian, she decreases their win rate by -1.1% to 47.7%. This signals that there is a bad bond between Lucian and Neeko that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.

Neeko has a lower difficulty than Lucian. That means Lucian players don't need to be very careful when arranging Neeko allies to play with, as they will have to have a relatively low level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Playing on the same side, Lucian players should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magical damage. When paired, these champions are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.

Conversely, by bringing Lucian and Neeko together, you will not be giving your team much engage. We recommend you pick other champs on your team that helps cover this gap in this pairing's abilities.

Regardless of the ability of your Neeko ally, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well, regardless.
