Is Briar better when played alongside Vex?

There is no perfect synergy for Briar that will 100% of the time be their top ally. However, Vex is a very typical teammate for Briar. By locking into the same side as Briar, they drops their win rate by -0.6% to 51.1%. This proves that there is a weak strategic relationship between Briar and Vex that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.

Vex has a much lower diffuclty than Briar. That means you don't need to be cautious when lining up Vex allies to fight alongside, as they will have to have a much lower level of skill to do well with you.

Playing on the same side, you 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.

In contrast, by grouping Briar and Vex together, you probably will not be providing your other teammates much AP. Make sure to bring other champions on your team that helps cover this hole in their playstyle.

Regardless of the skill of your Vex teammate, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
