Synergies
Lissandra fits in multi-CC engage compositions that benefit from her chained controls. She benefits from allies who can convert her freezes and stuns into quick kills. Dive or AoE compositions benefit from her ability to lock down multiple targets.
Kha'Zix
Lissandra locks a target down with huge reliability, giving Kha'Zix a very clean entry onto a carry or advanced mage. The execution is brutally simple: Lissandra immobilizes, Kha'Zix instantly follows, and the target is deleted before any answer comes through. This synergy is especially oppressive on side lanes and visionless rotations.

Jarvan IV
Jarvan IV and Lissandra excel together because they make fight space extremely hostile within seconds. Jarvan starts with Cataclysm or flag-drag, then Lissandra follows to freeze the priority target and prevent any clean escape. The duo is especially strong into immobile carries and comps built around a fixed backline.

Miss Fortune
Lissandra sets up Miss Fortune’s Bullet Time very well thanks to her area root and her ability to force a carry to remain in the firing line. The optimal execution is to engage first with Lissandra onto the center target, then have MF follow from a safe angle. This combination is very strong in narrow corridors and around objectives.

Olaf
Olaf greatly appreciates someone who lands the first lockdown and draws the enemy response, and Lissandra does that perfectly. She forces an important target to stay in place while Olaf runs through the front without caring about crowd control. This duo is excellent into teams that only have one or two tools to defend their carry.

Reckless Swing
Janna
Janna adds safety to the composition but does not directly accelerate Lissandra’s game plan. The duo mostly works when Lissandra acts as the primary engager and Janna exists to stop the enemy counter-engage afterward. It is defensively useful, but less lethal than an aggressive follow-up partner.
ProtectSupport
Lissandra never works alone: her value directly depends on her team’s ability to follow her engage. She excels in compositions that quickly convert crowd control into kills. The faster the follow-up, the higher her impact. Without coordination, her engage becomes a sacrifice.
Her best synergies rely on burst and chained engage. She creates the opening, her allies convert it. Aggressive junglers and champions who can instantly follow maximize her kit. She also works well with AoE setups that exploit her zone control.
