Is Janna better when played alongside Alistar?

There is no ideal synergy for Janna that will always be her #1 ally. However, overall, Alistar is a very bad companion for Janna. By playing on the same team as Janna, he drops their win rate by -7.1% to 43.9%. This proves that there is an easy to overcome and exploit strategic relationship between Janna and Alistar that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

Alistar has a lower difficulty than Janna. That means you don't need to be very careful when enlisting Alistar teammates to fight alongside, as they will require a lower level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Playing together, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to provide utility and CC for your side. Together, these two may be able to carry with the power of their abilities.

Although, by grouping Janna and Alistar together, you probably will not be providing your other allies a great deal of sustained damage output. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that neutralizes this relative disparity in their capabilities.

Regardless of the ability of your Alistar ally, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
