Is Vex better when played alongside Graves?

There is no top companion for Vex that will no matter what be their ideal teammate. However, overall, Graves is a pretty good teammate for Vex. By being on the same side as Vex, he improves their win rate by 1.4% to 50.2%. This clearly indicates that there is a potentially meaningful bond between Vex and Graves that allows them to perform better together than without each other.

Graves has a greater difficulty than Vex. That means you need to be cautious when finding Graves comrades to play with, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Working cooperatively, Vex players will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal physical damage. When paired, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Although, by aligning Vex and Graves together, you may not be giving your other allies enough magical damage output. We recommend you include other champs on your team that offsets this relative hole in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of your Graves ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
