Guide to Synergizing Leona and Elise

Tips for Playing as Leona with Elise

Shield of Daybreak and Zenith Blade form a powerful offensive combo.

Lead the charge and mark your foes with Sunlight before your allies deal damage.

How to Play with Elise as Leona in LoL

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

Overall, Leona sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Elise. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN. This decrease shows that Elise helps Leona perform worse in ranked League games. Yet, the small difference shows that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Leona is an ally to Elise, she sees a little decrease in her complete damage dealt. This change may signal that Elise does not help cover for her to dish out more damage or that her presence also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Leona is played together with Elise on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays without Elise. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Elise.

Additionally, when Leona plays with Elise on the same side, she typically takes a little less damage than when she fights alone. Taking not as much damage may indicate that Elise does a decent job of protecting Leona during team fights.

Is Leona better when played alongside Elise?

There is no ideal champion pairing for Leona that will always be her top synergy. Yet, Elise is a good ally for Leona. By being on the same side as Leona, she increases their win rate by 1.5% to 53.7%. This proves that there is a somewhat important strategic relationship between Leona and Elise that results in them performing better together than alone.

Elise has a much greater difficulty compared to Leona. That means Leona players need to be cautious when arranging Elise comrades to fight alongside, as they will need a much higher level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Playing alongside, Leona players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to tank a lot of damage. Together, these champs might be able to provide enough cover for their team's carries.

In contrast, by grouping Leona and Elise together, you probably will not be giving your team a lot of anti-tank damage dealing potential. Plan to bring other champs on your team that helps cover this relative gap in their capabilities.

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