Playing together, you should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal physical damage. Combined, these champs can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Although, by bringing Lucian and Kai'Sa together, you probably will not be giving your team a lot of support. We recommend you pick other champs on your team that nullifies this disparity in their abilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Kai'Sa ally, you need to focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well anyway.
