Is Nidalee better when played alongside Gwen?

There is no perfect champion pairing for Nidalee that will 100% of the time be her ideal teammate. Yet, Gwen is a very typical ally for Nidalee. By playing on the same team as Nidalee, she drops their win rate by -0.1% to 44.7%. This shows that there is only a small strategic relationship between Nidalee and Gwen that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Gwen has a much lower diffuclty than Nidalee. That means Nidalee players don't need to be careful when lining up Gwen comrades to fight alongside, as they will need a much lower level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Playing cooperatively, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to dish out massive AD. Together, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Conversely, by grouping Nidalee and Gwen together, you probably will not be providing your other teammates much support. Plan to have other champs on your team that neutralizes this relative gap in their potential.

Regardless of your Gwen ally's skill level, you need to focus on maximizing your income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
