Is Nidalee better when played alongside Gangplank?

There is no perfect companion for Nidalee that will 100% of the time be her top synergy. However, Gangplank is a very bad companion for Nidalee. By being on the same team as Nidalee, he drops their win rate by -6.3% to 38.5%. This shows that there is a very bad synergy between Nidalee and Gangplank that allows them to perform worse together than alone.

Gangplank has a greater difficulty than Nidalee. That means you must be very careful when lining up Gangplank teammates to play with, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

Playing cooperatively, you will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to dish out massive AD. Together, these champions should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Conversely, by bringing Nidalee and Gangplank together, you will not be granting your team much crowd control. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that helps cover this relative disparity in this pairing's potential.

Regardless of the ability of your Gangplank ally, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well anyway.
