Is Alistar better when played alongside Ivern?

There is no perfect companion for Alistar that will always be his top ally. Yet, Ivern is a not very good ally for Alistar. By locking into the same team as Alistar, he drops their win rate by -2.7% to 46.7%. This signals that there is a harmful bond between Alistar and Ivern that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Ivern has a lower difficulty than Alistar. That means Alistar players don't need to be very careful when finding Ivern teammates to play with, as they will require a lower level of skill to fight well with you.

When playing together, Alistar players should see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to soak up damage. Combined, these champs will be able to tank for the rest of their team.

In contrast, by pairing Alistar and Ivern together, you may not be giving your other teammates enough AD. We recommend you have other champs on your team that offsets this relative disparity in their capabilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Ivern ally, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well anyway.
