By playing on the same team as Bard, she improves their win rate by 4.1% to 56.4%. This demonstrates that there is a very strong bond between Bard and Senna that results in them performing stronger together than alone.

Senna has a lower difficulty than Bard. That means Bard players don't need to be cautious when lining up Senna teammates to play with, as they will have to have a lower level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Fighting cooperatively, you should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to buff allies and debuff enemies. When paired, these champions will help their other teammates secure a victory.

Although, by aligning Bard and Senna together, you will not be providing your team a lot of cover. We recommend you pick other champs on your team that fills this disparity in this pairing's capabilities.

Regardless of the ability of your Senna ally, you should focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
