How to Play with Bard as Yuumi in LoL

Overall, Yuumi sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Bard. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This decrease shows that Bard helps Yuumi perform not as well in competitive League of Legends games. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is only marginal.

This could signal that Bard does not provide protection for her to dish out more damage or that his support also helps extend the match's duration.

This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Bard.

Additionally, when Yuumi plays with Bard on the same team, she often receives much more damage than when she fights alone. Taking more damage could mean that Bard does a poor job of covering Yuumi during team fights.

Is Yuumi better when played alongside Bard?

There is no one best companion for Yuumi that will no matter what be her #1 ally. However, Bard is a very bad companion for Yuumi. By being on the same side as Yuumi, he drops their win rate by -13.9% to 30.0%. This signals that there is a terrible strategic relationship between Yuumi and Bard that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

Bard has a much greater difficulty compared to Yuumi. That means Yuumi players must be careful when enlisting Bard comrades to fight alongside, as they will require a much greater level of skill to play well with you.

Working cooperatively, you should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to support your allies. Together, these two should be able to manipulate the pace of team fights.

In contrast, by pairing Yuumi and Bard together, you may not be providing your team a lot of tankyness. Make sure to include other champs on your team that offsets this gap in this pairing's abilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Bard teammate, you need to focus on increasing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well anyway.
