When Zed is paired with Hwei, he observes a small increase in his total damage output. This difference may indicate that Hwei helps provide protection for him to deal more damage or that their support also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Zed is played with Hwei on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Hwei.
Moreover, when Zed plays with Hwei on the same side, he usually receives more damage than when he plays alone. Receiving more damage may mean that Hwei does a poor job of protecting Zed in team fights.
