How to Play with Malzahar as Ashe in LoL

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

Overall, Ashe sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Malzahar. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This worsening shows that Malzahar helps Ashe perform poorer in ranked LoL rounds. Yet, the small difference shows that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Ashe is an ally to Malzahar, she gets a little increase in her complete damage dealt. This may signal that Malzahar helps provide cover for her to deal more damage or that his allyship also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Ashe is played with Malzahar on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays without Malzahar. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Malzahar.

Moreover, when Ashe plays with Malzahar on the same side, she usually takes a little more damage than when she fights alone. Getting dealt more damage could mean that Malzahar does a poor job of covering Ashe during team fights.

Is Ashe better when played alongside Malzahar?

There is no one best synergy for Ashe that will no matter what be her best teammate. However, overall, Malzahar is a very typical ally for Ashe. By locking into the same side as Ashe, he improves their win rate by 0.7% to 49.3%. This clearly indicates that there is a weak bond between Ashe and Malzahar that allows them to perform better together than alone.

Malzahar has a greater difficulty than Ashe. That means Ashe players must be careful when arranging Malzahar allies to play with, as they will require a greater level of skill to cooperate well with you.

When playing together, Ashe players will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magic damage. Together, these champions are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.

Conversely, by pairing Ashe and Malzahar together, you will not be providing your other teammates very much cover. We recommend you bring other champions on your team that helps cover this gap in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Malzahar ally's skill level, you should focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
