Synergies
Lee Sin fits in compositions aiming to dominate the early game and create quick advantages. He benefits from allies who can convert his kicks and plays into kills. Snowball or early win condition compositions get the most from his impact.
Orianna
The Insec — W onto an ally behind enemies then Dragon's Rage kick — is one of the most powerful plays in the game, and Orianna is the perfect partner: the ball placed behind the enemy team serves as Lee Sin's W target, and the kick projects the target directly into the Shockwave. Coordination isn't complex: Orianna positions the ball before each potential teamfight, Lee Sin gauges his Insec angle, then executes W onto the ball + Dragon's Rage. Synergy that creates a carry one-shot from any composition and doesn't depend on any additional AoE ultimates.

Safeguard (sur balle/allié)→

Command: Shockwave
Jarvan IV
Dragon's Rage can kick the priority target directly into J4's Cataclysm cage — Lee Sin picks the target, J4 positions his arena as the reception zone, and the target is trapped with no possible Flash. The reverse configuration also works: J4 Cataclysm first, Lee Sin ward-hops inside the arena from outside via Sonic Wave, then Dragon's Rage kicks the target out of the cage toward the enemy team for an AoE kill. Double jungle in the same composition also allows simultaneous double-ganks on two lanes at once.

Yasuo
Lee Sin's Dragon's Rage knockups the target — a valid and instantly available Last Breath setup from level 6. Lee Sin Q + R onto the enemy carry, Yasuo waits with Last Breath ready, and the airborne target receives Yasuo's full burst with post-suspension armor reduction. Exceptional mid gank: Lee Sin arrives from jungle, Resonating Strike Q, Dragon's Rage kick, Yasuo Last Breath — 2-3 second sequence that leaves no possible reaction if timing is respected.

Last Breath
Malphite
Lee Sin can kick an enemy carry into Malphite's Unstoppable Force if both engage simultaneously on the same group — Lee Sin separates a carry, kicks them toward Malphite who ults simultaneously, the target gets knocked up twice. Conversely, Malphite ults to cluster targets and Lee Sin can Insec one of them away from the group to a more vulnerable position for isolation kill. Both champions have strong split-push presence and can exert effective 1-3-1 pressure on separate lanes.

Amumu
Double jungle dive: Lee Sin engages first with Sonic Wave + Resonating Strike for burst damage, then Amumu Bandage Toss onto the same target for the CC chain. Amumu's ultimate can open the teamfight after Lee Sin has dealt damage and retreated with Safeguard — Lee Sin is mobile and can survive post-engage, Amumu stays in the group with his AoE CC. Effective synergy in early jungle where both can counter-jungle together and set up double-ganks.
