Guide to Synergizing Sivir and Swain

Tips for Playing as Sivir with Swain

Sivir's Boomerang Blade returns to her after reaching the max range, so you can shift position to hit enemies who would otherwise have evaded it.

Try saving Spell Shield for enemy abilities that can disable you such as stuns and roots.

Ricochet resets Sivir's basic attack timer on activation, so activating this immediately after landing a normal basic attack will maximize damage output.

Advice to Understand How Swain Will Play

While laning, try to use Death's Hand's piercing damage to damage opponents from a safe distance.

Vision of Empire is quite difficult to land on its own, look for skirmishes around the map where enemies may be distracted or crowd controlled so you can land it more easily.

If you're having trouble rooting an enemy with Nevermove, try throwing it at opponents when they are near their minions so the explosion surprises them.

Demonic Ascension may make Swain very hard to kill but he's pretty easy to get away from. Try building items that can slow opponents to keep them in range if their mobility is overwhelming.

How to Play with Swain as Sivir in LoL

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

Overall, Sivir sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Swain. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Swain helps Sivir perform poorer in ranked League matches. Yet, the small difference shows that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Sivir is an ally to Swain, she gets a barely noticable drop in her full damage dealt. This difference could signal that Swain does not help protection for her to deal more damage or that his presence also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Sivir is played with Swain on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Swain.

Additionally, when Sivir plays with Swain on the same side, she on average receives a little less damage than when she plays alone. Taking not as much damage may mean that Swain does a decent job of protecting Sivir during team fights.

Is Sivir better when played alongside Swain?

There is no perfect companion for Sivir that will 100% of the time be her #1 teammate. Yet, Swain is a very typical companion for Sivir. By playing on the same side as Sivir, he decreases their win rate by -0.5% to 47.4%. This proves that there is not really a strong synergy between Sivir and Swain that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Swain has a much greater difficulty compared to Sivir. That means you must be careful when finding Swain comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a much higher level of skill to work well with you.

Fighting cooperatively, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to destroy wih physical damage. Together, these champs should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Although, by aligning Sivir and Swain together, you may not be granting your side much crowd control. We recommend you have other champions on your team that fills this relative hole in this pairing's abilities.

Regardless of your Swain ally's ability, 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.
