Is Lillia better when played alongside Karthus?

There is no universally accepted best companion for Lillia that will 100% of the time be her #1 ally. Yet, Karthus is a terrible ally for Lillia. By locking into the same side as Lillia, he drops their win rate by -4.1% to 50.0%. This proves that there is a very bad bond between Lillia and Karthus that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Karthus has a lower difficulty than Lillia. That means you don't need to be cautious when lining up Karthus allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

Playing cooperatively, you will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magical damage. Together, these two can blast through enemies with magic damage.

In contrast, by aligning Lillia and Karthus together, you will not be granting your team very much anti-tank damage dealing potential. We recommend you bring other champions on your team that neutralizes this disparity in their kit.

Regardless of the ability of your Karthus ally, you need to focus on maximizing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
