Overall, Vi sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Kalista. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN.

When Vi plays on the same team as Kalista, she gets a little decrease in her full damage output. This difference could signal that Kalista does not support by providing cover for her to dish out more damage or that her presence on the team also helps increase the game's duration.

This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Kalista.
Additionally, when Vi plays with Kalista on the same side, she on average takes a little less damage than when she fights alone. Getting dealt not as much damage may mean that Kalista does a decent job of covering Vi in teamfights.

Is Vi better when played alongside Kalista?
There is no one best synergy for Vi that will always be her ideal synergy. However, Kalista is a very typical companion for Vi. By playing on the same side as Vi, she has no effect on their win rate by 0.0% to 51.6%. This signals that there is not really a strong strategic relationship between Vi and Kalista that allows them to perform at the same level together than alone.
Kalista has a greater difficulty than Vi. That means you need to be cautious when enlisting Kalista comrades to fight alongside, as they will need a greater level of skill to do well with you.
Fighting cooperatively, Vi players should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to dish out massive AD. When paired, these champs should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.
In contrast, by pairing Vi and Kalista together, you probably will not be giving your side a great deal of support. We recommend you include other champions on your team that offsets this gap in this pairing's abilities.
