Is Ivern better when played alongside Skarner?

There is no top champion pairing for Ivern that will 100% of the time be his best teammate. Yet, Skarner is a very bad companion for Ivern. By being on the same team as Ivern, he decreases their win rate by -3.7% to 47.1%. This clearly indicates that there is a terrible bond between Ivern and Skarner that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.

Skarner has a lower difficulty than Ivern. That means you don't need to be cautious when arranging Skarner teammates to play with, as they will have to have a lower level of skill to be able to cooperate well with you.

When playing on the same side, you will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magical damage. Combined, these champs can blast through enemies with magic damage.

Conversely, by bringing Ivern and Skarner together, you probably will not be providing your other teammates very much sustained damage output. Make sure to include other champions on your team that offsets this relative hole in this pairing's abilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Skarner ally, you should focus on maximizing your income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well, regardless.
