How to Play with Sylas as Janna in LoL

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

Overall, Janna sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Sylas. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN. This fall shows that Sylas helps Janna perform not as well in competitive League matches. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is only marginal.

When Janna tries to synergize with Sylas, she observes a barely noticable drop in her full damage output. This may indicate that Sylas does not support by providing cover for her to dish out more damage or that his participation also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Janna is played together with Sylas on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays without Sylas. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Sylas.

Moreover, when Janna plays with Sylas on the same side, she typically takes a little less damage than when she fights alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could mean that Sylas does a decent job of protecting Janna in teamfights.

Is Janna better when played alongside Sylas?

There is no top companion for Janna that will 100% of the time be her ideal ally. However, Sylas is a very typical teammate for Janna. By being on the same team as Janna, he decreases their win rate by -0.3% to 50.7%. This proves that there is not really a strong bond between Janna and Sylas that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.

Sylas has a lower difficulty than Janna. That means you don't need to be cautious when finding Sylas comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a relatively low level of skill to play well with you.

Playing on the same side, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magical damage. Combined, these champions can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.

Conversely, by pairing Janna and Sylas together, you will not be granting your team a great deal of attack damage. Plan to have other champs on your team that offsets this relative gap in their abilities.

Regardless of the ability of your Sylas teammate, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
