How to Play with Draven as Gwen in LoL

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

Overall, Gwen sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Draven. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This decrease shows that Draven helps Gwen perform poorer in competitive League games. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Gwen plays on the same team as Draven, she gets a small decrease in her complete damage dealt. This difference may signal that Draven does not support by providing cover for her to deal more damage or that his participation also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Gwen is played together with Draven on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays without Draven. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Draven.

Additionally, when Gwen plays with Draven on the same side, she often receives a little less damage than when she plays alone. Taking not as much damage could indicate that Draven does a decent job of covering Gwen in teamfights.

Is Gwen better when played alongside Draven?

There is no one best synergy for Gwen that will 100% of the time be her #1 synergy. However, Draven is a very typical teammate for Gwen. By being on the same side as Gwen, he decreases their win rate by -0.8% to 47.3%. This clearly indicates that there is a weak bond between Gwen and Draven that allows them to perform worse together than alone.

Draven has a greater difficulty than Gwen. That means Gwen players need to be very careful when enlisting Draven teammates to play with, as they will need a greater level of skill to be able to cooperate well with you.

Fighting alongside, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to dish out massive AD. Together, these champs can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

Conversely, by aligning Gwen and Draven together, you probably will not be providing your other teammates a great deal of magic damage. Make sure to have other champs on your team that helps cover this relative disparity in their kit.

Regardless of the skill of your Draven teammate, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well anyway.
