Overall, Rell sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Bard. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN.

This change could demonstrate that Bard provides cover for her to dish out more damage or that his support also helps extend the match's duration. Similarly, when Rell is played with Bard on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays without Bard. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Bard.

Is Rell better when played alongside Bard?

There is no top synergy for Rell that will no matter what be her ideal teammate. However, overall, Bard is a terrible companion for Rell. By locking into the same side as Rell, he lowers their win rate by -4.2% to 45.1%. This proves that there is a terrible synergy between Rell and Bard that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Bard has a much greater difficulty compared to Rell. That means Rell players need to be careful when lining up Bard allies to fight alongside, as they will have to have a much higher level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

Working cooperatively, Rell players should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to support your allies. Together, these champs should be able to manipulate the pace of team fights.

Conversely, by grouping Rell and Bard together, you probably will not be providing your side enough anti-tank damage dealing potential. Plan to have other champions on your team that fills this relative gap in their capabilities.

Regardless of your Bard ally's ability, 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.
