This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Neeko.

Is Master Yi better when played alongside Neeko?

There is no ideal synergy for Master Yi that will 100% of the time be his best ally. However, overall, Neeko is a very typical ally for Master Yi. By locking into the same side as Master Yi, she raises their win rate by 0.9% to 51.5%. This clearly indicates that there is not really a strong synergy between Master Yi and Neeko that results in them performing stronger together than alone.

Neeko has a greater difficulty than Master Yi. That means Master Yi players need to be very careful when lining up Neeko teammates to play with, as they will require a greater level of skill to be able to play well with you.

When playing on the same side, you should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to dish out massive AD. Combined, these champs can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Conversely, by aligning Master Yi and Neeko together, you may not be providing your team a lot of cover. Plan to pick other champs on your team that offsets this relative disparity in their capabilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Neeko ally, you should focus on increasing your income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
