Is Draven better when played alongside Gwen?

There is no universally accepted best companion for Draven that will no matter what be his #1 ally. However, Gwen is a not very good ally for Draven. By being on the same team as Draven, she drops their win rate by -2.4% to 47.3%. This demonstrates that there is a harmful strategic relationship between Draven and Gwen that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Gwen has a much lower diffuclty than Draven. That means you don't need to be cautious when lining up Gwen comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a much lower level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Working together, Draven players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal physical damage. When paired, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

In contrast, by aligning Draven and Gwen together, you will not be providing your other teammates enough magical damage output. We recommend you include other champions on your team that fills this relative hole in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Gwen ally's skill level, you should focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
