Is Lucian better when played alongside Taliyah?

There is no top companion for Lucian that will always be his best teammate. However, Taliyah is a relatively poor companion for Lucian. By playing on the same side as Lucian, she lowers their win rate by -1.1% to 47.7%. This clearly indicates that there is a bad strategic relationship between Lucian and Taliyah that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Taliyah has a lower difficulty than Lucian. That means you don't need to be cautious when enlisting Taliyah comrades to fight alongside, as they will need a lower level of skill to cooperate well with you.

When playing together, you will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to soak up damage. Together, these champions might be able to provide enough cover for their team's carries.

Although, by bringing Lucian and Taliyah together, you may not be providing your side very much anti-tank damage dealing potential. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that nullifies this relative hole in this pairing's kit.

Regardless of your Taliyah ally's ability, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well, regardless.
