Guide to Synergizing Swain and Ezreal

Tips for Playing as Swain with Ezreal

While laning, try to use Death's Hand's piercing damage to damage opponents from a safe distance.

Vision of Empire is quite difficult to land on its own, look for skirmishes around the map where enemies may be distracted or crowd controlled so you can land it more easily.

If you're having trouble rooting an enemy with Nevermove, try throwing it at opponents when they are near their minions so the explosion surprises them.

Demonic Ascension may make Swain very hard to kill but he's pretty easy to get away from. Try building items that can slow opponents to keep them in range if their mobility is overwhelming.

Advice to Understand How Ezreal Will Play

Use Arcane Shift to help line up your other skill shots.

You can line up Trueshot Barrage to hit multiple minion waves or even Monsters.

You can play Ezreal either as a Attack Damage carry or Ability Power carry depending on how you build him.

How to Play with Ezreal as Swain in LoL

The Swain Ezreal synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Ezreal, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Swain sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Ezreal. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Ezreal helps Swain perform poorer in ranked LoL matches. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Swain is an ally to Ezreal, he sees a little decrease in his complete damage output. This difference could signal that Ezreal doesn't help protection for him to deal more damage or that his participation also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Swain is played with Ezreal on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays without Ezreal. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Ezreal.

Additionally, when Swain plays with Ezreal on the same team, he often takes a little more damage than when he plays alone. Receiving more damage may mean that Ezreal does a poor job of covering Swain during teamfights.

Is Swain better when played alongside Ezreal?

There is no top synergy for Swain that will 100% of the time be his top teammate. However, overall, Ezreal is a very bad teammate for Swain. By locking into the same team as Swain, he decreases their win rate by -3.7% to 47.6%. This proves that there is a very bad bond between Swain and Ezreal that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Ezreal has a lower difficulty than Swain. That means Swain players don't need to be careful when finding Ezreal allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a lower level of skill to cooperate well with you.

Fighting on the same side, you will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magic damage. When paired, these two can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.

Conversely, by grouping Swain and Ezreal together, you may not be granting your team very much support. Make sure to pick other champs on your team that nullifies this relative hole in this pairing's potential.

Regardless of your Ezreal ally's skill level, you should focus on increasing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well, regardless.
