Is Caitlyn better when played alongside Jax?

There is no ideal champion pairing for Caitlyn that will always be her top teammate. However, Jax is a decent ally for Caitlyn. By locking into the same side as Caitlyn, he increases their win rate by 1.1% to 50.4%. This clearly indicates that there is a somewhat important synergy between Caitlyn and Jax that allows them to perform stronger together than alone.

Jax has a lower difficulty than Caitlyn. That means Caitlyn players don't need to be careful when arranging Jax comrades to fight alongside, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to play well with you.

Fighting cooperatively, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to dish out massive AD. Together, these champions can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Although, by aligning Caitlyn and Jax together, you probably will not be giving your team very much protection for burst damage. Make sure to have other champions on your team that fills this gap in their playstyle.

Regardless of the ability of your Jax ally, you need to focus on maximizing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
