Is Vi better when played alongside Irelia?

There is no perfect synergy for Vi that will always be her top synergy. However, overall, Irelia is a relatively poor teammate for Vi. By locking into the same side as Vi, she decreases their win rate by -1.3% to 50.3%. This clearly indicates that there is a harmful synergy between Vi and Irelia that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Irelia has a greater difficulty than Vi. That means Vi players need to be cautious when finding Irelia teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a greater level of skill to play well with you.

Working alongside, Vi players should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal physical damage. Combined, these champions can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

Although, by aligning Vi and Irelia together, you may not be providing your side a lot of utility. We recommend you include other champions on your team that fills this relative hole in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Irelia ally's skill level, you need to focus on maximizing your income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
