Overall, Amumu sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Graves. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN.

When Amumu is paired with Graves, he observes a measurable drop in his complete damage dealt. This difference could signal that Graves does not help cover for him to dish out more damage or that his presence on the team also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Amumu is played alongside Graves on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Graves.

Additionally, when Amumu plays with Graves on the same side, he on average takes much less damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could indicate that Graves does a decent job of covering Amumu in team fights.

Is Amumu better when played alongside Graves?

There is no perfect ally for Amumu that will always be his #1 ally. However, overall, Graves is a top-tier teammate for Amumu. By locking into the same side as Amumu, he improves their win rate by 4.4% to 53.4%. This clearly indicates that there is a strong bond between Amumu and Graves that results in them performing better together than alone.

Graves has a lower difficulty than Amumu. That means you don't need to be cautious when finding Graves teammates to fight alongside, as they will need a lower level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Fighting alongside, Amumu players will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magical damage. Combined, these champs can blast through enemies with magic damage.

In contrast, by aligning Amumu and Graves together, you will not be granting your other allies a great deal of attack damage. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that offsets this disparity in their potential.

Regardless of the ability of your Graves ally, you should focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
