Is Rakan better when played alongside Ryze?

There is no universally accepted best ally for Rakan that will 100% of the time be his #1 teammate. Yet, overall, Ryze is a very typical teammate for Rakan. By locking into the same team as Rakan, he lowers their win rate by -0.7% to 49.9%. This proves that there is only a small strategic relationship between Rakan and Ryze that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Ryze has a greater difficulty than Rakan. That means you must be very careful when arranging Ryze allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a greater level of skill to fight well with you.

Fighting cooperatively, you will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magic damage. Combined, these champions can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.

Conversely, by grouping Rakan and Ryze together, you may not be providing your other allies a great deal of sustained damage output. We recommend you bring other champions on your team that offsets this relative gap in their abilities.

Regardless of your Ryze ally's skill level, you need to focus on maximizing your income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
