Tips for Playing as Master Yi with Gwen

How to Play with Gwen as Master Yi in LoL

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

Overall, Master Yi sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Gwen. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN. This decrease shows that Gwen helps Master Yi perform poorer in competitive League rounds. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Master Yi is an ally to Gwen, he sees a small decrease in his complete damage dealt. This change could signal that Gwen does not support by providing cover for him to deal more damage or that her support also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Master Yi is played together with Gwen on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Gwen.

Additionally, when Master Yi plays with Gwen on the same side, he usually takes a little less damage than when he fights alone. Taking not as much damage may indicate that Gwen does a decent job of covering Master Yi in team fights.

Is Master Yi better when played alongside Gwen?

There is no ideal champion pairing for Master Yi that will always be his ideal teammate. However, Gwen is a not very good companion for Master Yi. By being on the same team as Master Yi, she drops their win rate by -2.5% to 48.1%. This proves that there is a bad bond between Master Yi and Gwen that allows them to perform worse together than alone.

Gwen has a greater difficulty than Master Yi. That means you need to be cautious when finding Gwen allies to play with, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to work well with you.

Fighting alongside, Master Yi players should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capability to destroy wih physical damage. Combined, these champs can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

In contrast, by aligning Master Yi and Gwen together, you may not be providing your other allies much crowd control. Make sure to have other champs on your team that fills this disparity in their potential.

Regardless of the ability of your Gwen teammate, you should focus on increasing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well anyway.
