Is Twitch better when played alongside Gangplank?

There is no universally accepted best companion for Twitch that will always be his ideal ally. Yet, overall, Gangplank is a not very good ally for Twitch. By being on the same team as Twitch, he lowers their win rate by -1.9% to 48.1%. This demonstrates that there is a harmful bond between Twitch and Gangplank that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Gangplank has a greater difficulty than Twitch. That means you need to be careful when arranging Gangplank allies to fight alongside, as they will need a greater level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Working on the same side, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to dish out massive AD. Together, these champs can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

In contrast, by pairing Twitch and Gangplank together, you will not be providing your team a lot of support. Make sure to pick other champs on your team that fills this disparity in their kit.

Regardless of the ability of your Gangplank teammate, you should focus on increasing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
