By being on the same side as Neeko, he lowers their win rate by -1.7% to 47.7%. This clearly indicates that there is a bad bond between Neeko and Lucian that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

Lucian has a greater difficulty than Neeko. That means Neeko players must be careful when lining up Lucian comrades to play with, as they will require a greater level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Fighting together, Neeko players will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magic damage. When paired, these champions can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.

Although, by grouping Neeko and Lucian together, you probably will not be giving your other allies very much engage. We recommend you include other champions on your team that fills this gap in this pairing's abilities.
