By playing on the same side as Gwen, she drops their win rate by -0.1% to 48.0%. This proves that there is only a small synergy between Gwen and Samira that results in them performing worse together than without each other.

Samira has a greater difficulty than Gwen. That means you should be very careful when arranging Samira comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to do well with you.

Working together, Gwen players will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to destroy wih physical damage. Together, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.
