Is Samira better when played alongside Gwen?

There is no ideal synergy for Samira that will always be her #1 ally. Yet, Gwen is a very typical teammate for Samira. By locking into the same team as Samira, she drops their win rate by -0.7% to 48.0%. This clearly indicates that there is only a small synergy between Samira and Gwen that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.

Gwen has a lower difficulty than Samira. That means you don't need to be careful when arranging Gwen allies to play with, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to play well with you.

Fighting on the same side, you will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal physical damage. When paired, these champs should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

In contrast, by pairing Samira and Gwen together, you will not be providing your other allies very much utility. Plan to have other champs on your team that neutralizes this disparity in their capabilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Gwen ally, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well, regardless.
