Is Gwen better when played alongside Master Yi?

There is no perfect champion pairing for Gwen that will 100% of the time be her best ally. However, Master Yi is a very typical teammate for Gwen. By playing on the same side as Gwen, he has no effect on their win rate by 0.0% to 48.1%. This shows that there is only a small synergy between Gwen and Master Yi that results in them performing at the same level together than without each other.

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

Playing alongside, you will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal physical damage. Together, these champions can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Conversely, by pairing Gwen and Master Yi together, you may not be giving your team much support. We recommend you include other champions on your team that fills this relative gap in their kit.

Regardless of the skill of your Master Yi ally, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
