How to Play with Sylas as Kai'Sa in LoL

The Kai'Sa 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, Kai'Sa 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 worsening shows that Sylas helps Kai'Sa perform worse in ranked League of Legends rounds. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Kai'Sa tries to synergize with Sylas, she sees a little decrease in her total damage output. This may signal that Sylas does not help protection for her to dish out more damage or that his participation also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Kai'Sa is played alongside 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 alongside Sylas.

Additionally, when Kai'Sa plays with Sylas on the same side, she usually receives a little less damage than when she plays alone. Taking not as much damage could mean that Sylas does a decent job of protecting Kai'Sa in teamfights.

Is Kai'Sa better when played alongside Sylas?

There is no one best ally for Kai'Sa that will 100% of the time be her #1 ally. However, overall, Sylas is a not very good teammate for Kai'Sa. By playing on the same team as Kai'Sa, he drops their win rate by -2.2% to 44.3%. This demonstrates that there is a harmful bond between Kai'Sa and Sylas that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.

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

Playing cooperatively, you should see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to dish out massive AD. Combined, these champs should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Conversely, by pairing Kai'Sa and Sylas together, you will not be providing your team much support. Make sure to pick other champions on your team that offsets this gap in this pairing's potential.

Regardless of the ability of your Sylas ally, you need to focus on increasing your income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
