How to Play with Ahri as Gwen in LoL

The Gwen Ahri synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Ahri, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Gwen sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Ahri. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN. This drop shows that Ahri helps Gwen perform worse in ranked League of Legends games. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Gwen tries to synergize with Ahri, she sees a little decrease in her full damage dealt. This difference could signal that Ahri doesn't help cover for her to deal more damage or that her support also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Gwen is played alongside Ahri on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays without Ahri. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Ahri.

Additionally, when Gwen plays with Ahri on the same team, she usually receives a little less damage than when she fights alone. Getting dealt not as much damage may mean that Ahri does a decent job of covering Gwen in team fights.

Is Gwen better when played alongside Ahri?

There is no universally accepted best ally for Gwen that will always be her top ally. However, Ahri is a not very good ally for Gwen. By playing on the same team as Gwen, she decreases their win rate by -2.8% to 45.3%. This clearly indicates that there is a negative synergy between Gwen and Ahri that allows them to perform worse together than alone.

Ahri has a lower difficulty than Gwen. That means you don't need to be very careful when enlisting Ahri allies to fight alongside, as they will require a relatively low level of skill to cooperate well with you.

When playing alongside, you will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magical damage. Together, these two are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.

In contrast, by bringing Gwen and Ahri together, you may not be giving your other teammates enough protection for burst damage. Make sure to bring other champions on your team that nullifies this disparity in their abilities.

Regardless of your Ahri ally's skill level, you need to focus on increasing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well, regardless.
