Is Katarina better when played alongside LeBlanc?

There is no perfect companion for Katarina that will always be her best teammate. However, overall, LeBlanc is a terrible teammate for Katarina. By being on the same team as Katarina, she drops their win rate by -4.0% to 44.8%. This proves that there is an easy to overcome and exploit synergy between Katarina and LeBlanc that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

LeBlanc has a greater difficulty than Katarina. That means you need to be cautious when finding LeBlanc allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a greater level of skill to work well with you.

Working cooperatively, you will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magical damage. When paired, these two can blast through enemies with magic damage.

Although, by grouping Katarina and LeBlanc together, you will not be granting your team very much support. Plan to bring other champs on your team that offsets this relative gap in this pairing's abilities.
