Is Cho'Gath better when played alongside Ahri?

By playing on the same team as Cho'Gath, she drops their win rate by -2.9% to 46.6%. This signals that there is a bad strategic relationship between Cho'Gath and Ahri that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.

When playing on the same side, you will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magical damage. Combined, these champs are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.

In contrast, by aligning Cho'Gath and Ahri together, you will not be giving your other allies enough attack damage. Plan to include other champions on your team that offsets this hole in this pairing's kit.

Regardless of your Ahri ally's skill level, you need to focus on increasing your income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
