This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Gwen.

Is Ryze better when played alongside Gwen?

There is no perfect ally for Ryze that will no matter what be his ideal ally. Yet, Gwen is a terrible ally for Ryze. By playing on the same team as Ryze, she lowers their win rate by -5.2% to 43.8%. This signals that there is a terrible strategic relationship between Ryze and Gwen that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.

Gwen has a lower difficulty than Ryze. That means Ryze players don't need to be careful when enlisting Gwen allies to play with, as they will require a lower level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Playing cooperatively, Ryze players will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magical damage. Together, these two are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.

In contrast, by grouping Ryze and Gwen together, you may not be giving your side a great deal of engage. Make sure to bring other champs on your team that helps cover this disparity in this pairing's abilities.

Regardless of your Gwen ally's ability, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
