Guide to Synergizing Cassiopeia and Swain

Tips for Playing as Cassiopeia with Swain

Lead your enemy when targeting with Noxious Blast to ensure the hit.

Use Twin Fang on poisoned stationary targets like monsters and units stunned by her Petrifying Gaze for maximum damage.

Advice to Understand How Swain Will Play

While laning, try to use Death's Hand's piercing damage to damage opponents from a safe distance.

Vision of Empire is quite difficult to land on its own, look for skirmishes around the map where enemies may be distracted or crowd controlled so you can land it more easily.

If you're having trouble rooting an enemy with Nevermove, try throwing it at opponents when they are near their minions so the explosion surprises them.

Demonic Ascension may make Swain very hard to kill but he's pretty easy to get away from. Try building items that can slow opponents to keep them in range if their mobility is overwhelming.

Is Cassiopeia better when played alongside Swain?

There is no one best ally for Cassiopeia that will no matter what be her #1 synergy. Yet, Swain is a very typical companion for Cassiopeia. By locking into the same side as Cassiopeia, he increases their win rate by 0.2% to 50.5%. This signals that there is not really a strong bond between Cassiopeia and Swain that allows them to perform better together than alone.

Swain has a lower difficulty than Cassiopeia. That means Cassiopeia players don't need to be cautious when arranging Swain teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a lower level of skill to play well with you.

When playing together, Cassiopeia players will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magic damage. Combined, these champs can blast through enemies with magic damage.

In contrast, by aligning Cassiopeia and Swain together, you probably will not be giving your other allies a great deal of anti-tank damage dealing potential. We recommend you pick other champs on your team that offsets this disparity in this pairing's capabilities.

Regardless of the ability of your Swain teammate, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
