How to Play with Zoe as Alistar in LoL

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

Overall, Alistar sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Zoe. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This fall shows that Zoe helps Alistar perform worse in competitive LoL games. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Alistar is an ally to Zoe, he gets a barely noticable drop in his complete damage output. This difference may indicate that Zoe does not support by providing protection for him to dish out more damage or that her allyship also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Alistar is played alongside Zoe on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Zoe.

Additionally, when Alistar plays with Zoe on the same team, he usually receives a little more damage than when he plays alone. Receiving more damage could indicate that Zoe does a poor job of protecting Alistar during teamfights.

Is Alistar better when played alongside Zoe?

There is no top ally for Alistar that will 100% of the time be his best synergy. Yet, overall, Zoe is a not very good teammate for Alistar. By playing on the same side as Alistar, she lowers their win rate by -2.4% to 47.0%. This demonstrates that there is a bad bond between Alistar and Zoe that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.

Zoe has a lower difficulty than Alistar. That means Alistar players don't need to be cautious when enlisting Zoe teammates to fight alongside, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to be able to cooperate well with you.

Working together, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to soak up damage. Combined, these two will be a great protective duo.

Although, by aligning Alistar and Zoe together, you will not be providing your other allies very much sustained damage output. Make sure to pick other champs on your team that offsets this relative hole in their capabilities.

Regardless of your Zoe ally's skill level, you should focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well, regardless.
