Is Kennen better when played alongside Lux?

There is no ideal companion for Kennen that will always be his ideal teammate. Yet, Lux is a not very good companion for Kennen. By locking into the same team as Kennen, she decreases their win rate by -2.2% to 46.4%. This clearly indicates that there is a bad synergy between Kennen and Lux that results in them performing worse together than without each other.

Lux has a greater difficulty than Kennen. That means you need to be very careful when enlisting Lux teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to fight well with you.

Working together, you should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s capability to to do a lot of AP damage. When paired, these champs can blast through enemies with magic damage.

Conversely, by grouping Kennen and Lux together, you will not be granting your side a great deal of sustained damage output. We recommend you have other champs on your team that offsets this relative disparity in their abilities.

Regardless of your Lux ally's skill level, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well anyway.
