Is Janna better when played alongside Skarner?

There is no universally accepted best synergy for Janna that will always be her #1 ally. Yet, Skarner is a very typical companion for Janna. By being on the same team as Janna, he raises their win rate by 0.6% to 51.6%. This demonstrates that there is not really a strong strategic relationship between Janna and Skarner that allows them to perform better together than alone.

Skarner has a lower difficulty than Janna. That means Janna players don't need to be very careful when enlisting Skarner teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a lower level of skill to be able to cooperate well with you.

Playing alongside, you will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to support your allies. Combined, these champions may be able to carry with the power of their abilities.

In contrast, by aligning Janna and Skarner together, you may not be giving your other teammates a great deal of sustained damage output. Plan to have other champions on your team that offsets this relative gap in their abilities.

Regardless of your Skarner ally's skill level, you should focus on increasing your income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
