How to Play with Ryze as Viktor in LoL

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

Overall, Viktor sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Ryze. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Ryze helps Viktor perform worse in ranked League rounds. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Viktor tries to synergize with Ryze, he sees a barely noticable drop in his full damage output. This change may demonstrate that Ryze does not provide cover for him to deal more damage or that his presence on the team also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Viktor is played together with Ryze on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Ryze.

Additionally, when Viktor plays with Ryze on the same side, he often takes a little more damage than when he fights alone. Taking more damage may mean that Ryze does a poor job of covering Viktor in teamfights.

Is Viktor better when played alongside Ryze?

There is no universally accepted best ally for Viktor that will 100% of the time be his best synergy. Yet, Ryze is a terrible companion for Viktor. By locking into the same side as Viktor, he decreases their win rate by -8.0% to 42.2%. This proves that there is an easy to overcome and exploit bond between Viktor and Ryze that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Ryze has a lower difficulty than Viktor. That means Viktor players don't need to be careful when enlisting Ryze teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to fight well with you.

Working alongside, Viktor players will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magical damage. Together, these champions are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.

Conversely, by bringing Viktor and Ryze together, you probably will not be providing your other allies a lot of AD. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that neutralizes this gap in this pairing's abilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Ryze teammate, you need to focus on increasing your income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well, regardless.
