Is Ryze better when played alongside Caitlyn?

There is no top champion pairing for Ryze that will always be his #1 teammate. Yet, Caitlyn is a below average companion for Ryze. By being on the same team as Ryze, she decreases their win rate by -1.4% to 47.6%. This shows that there is a bad bond between Ryze and Caitlyn that allows them to perform worse together than alone.

Caitlyn has a lower difficulty than Ryze. That means Ryze players don't need to be very careful when enlisting Caitlyn allies to play with, as they will need a lower level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Fighting on the same side, Ryze players will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magic damage. Combined, these champions can blast through enemies with magic damage.

In contrast, by pairing Ryze and Caitlyn together, you will not be granting your side a great deal of engage potential. We recommend you pick other champs on your team that nullifies this relative hole in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of your Caitlyn ally's skill level, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well, regardless.
