Tips for Playing as Swain with Sivir
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 Sivir Will Play
Sivir's Boomerang Blade returns to her after reaching the max range, so you can shift position to hit enemies who would otherwise have evaded it.
Try saving Spell Shield for enemy abilities that can disable you such as stuns and roots.
Ricochet resets Sivir's basic attack timer on activation, so activating this immediately after landing a normal basic attack will maximize damage output.

This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Sivir.
Additionally, when Swain plays with Sivir on the same side, he often receives a little more damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt more damage could indicate that Sivir does a poor job of protecting Swain in teamfights.

When playing alongside, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to destroy wih physical damage. When paired, these two can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.
Although, by bringing Swain and Sivir together, you will not be granting your other allies much utility. We recommend you have other champs on your team that nullifies this relative disparity in this pairing's kit.
Regardless of the ability of your Sivir ally, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well, regardless.
