How to Play with Leona as Zoe in LoL

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

Overall, Zoe sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Leona. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN. This worsening shows that Leona helps Zoe perform not as well in ranked League matches. Yet, the small difference shows that this performance change is only marginal.

When Zoe plays on the same team as Leona, she sees a small increase in her full damage dealt. This may signal that Leona provides protection for her to deal more damage or that her allyship also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Zoe is played together with Leona on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Leona.

Additionally, when Zoe plays with Leona on the same side, she usually takes a little less damage than when she fights alone. Receiving not as much damage may mean that Leona does a decent job of protecting Zoe in team fights.

Is Zoe better when played alongside Leona?

There is no universally accepted best champion pairing for Zoe that will always be her top synergy. Yet, Leona is a very typical ally for Zoe. By locking into the same side as Zoe, she increases their win rate by 0.6% to 47.6%. This shows that there is a weak bond between Zoe and Leona that results in them performing stronger together than alone.

Leona has a lower difficulty than Zoe. That means you don't need to be very careful when lining up Leona teammates to play with, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Playing alongside, Zoe players will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s capability to soak up damage. Together, these two might be able to provide enough cover for their team's carries.

Conversely, by pairing Zoe and Leona together, you will not be granting your other allies much anti-tank damage dealing potential. We recommend you have other champs on your team that helps cover this relative gap in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of your Leona ally's skill level, you should focus on increasing your income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
