Overall, Ashe sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Swain. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN.

When Ashe tries to synergize with Swain, she gets a little drop in her total damage dealt. This change may indicate that Swain doesn't help protection for her to deal more damage or that his support also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Ashe is played alongside Swain on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Swain.
Additionally, when Ashe plays with Swain on the same side, she typically takes a little more damage than when she plays alone. Taking more damage could indicate that Swain does a poor job of covering Ashe in team fights.
