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

Is Rumble better when played alongside Aphelios?

There is no top champion pairing for Rumble that will no matter what be his best synergy. Yet, Aphelios is a not very good teammate for Rumble. By locking into the same side as Rumble, he decreases their win rate by -1.6% to 47.7%. This shows that there is a negative bond between Rumble and Aphelios that results in them performing worse together than without each other.

Aphelios has a lower difficulty than Rumble. That means Rumble players don't need to be very careful when finding Aphelios allies to play with, as they will need a relatively low 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 capability to dish out massive AD. Together, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

In contrast, by pairing Rumble and Aphelios together, you may not be providing your team a lot of crowd control. Make sure to include other champions on your team that offsets this relative disparity in this pairing's potential.

Regardless of your Aphelios ally's skill level, you need to focus on increasing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well anyway.
