How to Play with Samira as Lux in LoL

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

Overall, Lux sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Samira. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This decrease shows that Samira helps Lux perform not as well in competitive League of Legends rounds. Yet, the small difference shows that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Lux plays on the same team as Samira, she sees a little increase in her full damage dealt. This difference could demonstrate that Samira supports by providing protection for her to dish out more damage or that her allyship also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Lux is played with Samira on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Samira.

Additionally, when Lux plays with Samira on the same team, she usually takes a little less damage than when she fights alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could mean that Samira does a decent job of protecting Lux in teamfights.

Is Lux better when played alongside Samira?

There is no ideal champion pairing for Lux that will always be her best synergy. Yet, Samira is a below average teammate for Lux. By locking into the same side as Lux, she lowers their win rate by -2.2% to 47.6%. This demonstrates that there is a bad synergy between Lux and Samira that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Samira has a greater difficulty than Lux. That means Lux players need to be careful when finding Samira comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a greater level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Working on the same side, you should see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magical damage. Together, these two are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.

Although, by aligning Lux and Samira together, you probably will not be providing your side enough engage potential. Plan to include other champs on your team that helps cover this relative hole in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of the ability of your Samira teammate, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you will do well, regardless.
