Is Samira better when played alongside Ahri?

There is no universally accepted best champion pairing for Samira that will no matter what be her ideal teammate. However, Ahri is a very typical companion for Samira. By locking into the same side as Samira, she has no effect on their win rate by 0.0% to 48.7%. This signals that there is a weak bond between Samira and Ahri that allows them to perform at the same level together than alone.

Ahri has a lower difficulty than Samira. That means you don't need to be careful when lining up Ahri teammates to play with, as they will have to have a relatively low level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

Fighting on the same side, Samira players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to destroy wih physical damage. Together, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

In contrast, by aligning Samira and Ahri together, you may not be giving your side much crowd control. We recommend you bring other champions on your team that helps cover this disparity in their abilities.

Regardless of your Ahri ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well anyway.
