Is Samira better when played alongside Lucian?

There is no perfect ally for Samira that will always be her best teammate. However, Lucian is a terrible teammate for Samira. By playing on the same side as Samira, he drops their win rate by -4.6% to 44.1%. This demonstrates that there is a terrible synergy between Samira and Lucian that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Lucian has a lower difficulty than Samira. That means you don't need to be very careful when lining up Lucian comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a relatively low level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Playing on the same side, Samira players should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to destroy wih physical damage. When paired, these two can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

Conversely, by bringing Samira and Lucian together, you probably will not be giving your other teammates very much support. Plan to include other champs on your team that neutralizes this relative disparity in their capabilities.

Regardless of the ability of your Lucian ally, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
