This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Sylas.

Is Vladimir better when played alongside Sylas?

There is no one best companion for Vladimir that will always be his best synergy. Yet, Sylas is a terrible ally for Vladimir. By locking into the same team as Vladimir, he lowers their win rate by -5.0% to 45.0%. This shows that there is an easy to overcome and exploit strategic relationship between Vladimir and Sylas that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.

Sylas has a lower difficulty than Vladimir. That means Vladimir players don't need to be cautious when lining up Sylas teammates to play with, as they will have to have a relatively low level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Playing alongside, you should see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magical damage. Combined, these champs are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.

Conversely, by bringing Vladimir and Sylas together, you probably will not be giving your other teammates a lot of utility. Make sure to bring other champions on your team that fills this relative gap in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Sylas ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
