Is Syndra better when played alongside Sion?

There is no ideal champion pairing for Syndra that will 100% of the time be her top teammate. However, overall, Sion is a very typical teammate for Syndra. By being on the same team as Syndra, he lowers their win rate by -0.7% to 48.0%. This clearly indicates that there is not really a strong strategic relationship between Syndra and Sion that allows them to perform worse together than alone.

Sion has a much lower diffuclty than Syndra. That means you don't need to be cautious when finding Sion allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a much lower level of skill to be able to play well with you.

When playing cooperatively, Syndra players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magic damage. Together, these two can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.

In contrast, by pairing Syndra and Sion together, you probably will not be providing your side very much anti-tank damage dealing potential. We recommend you include other champions on your team that nullifies this relative disparity in this pairing's abilities.

Regardless of your Sion ally's ability, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
