How to Play with Elise as Kog'Maw in LoL

The Kog'Maw Elise synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Elise, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Kog'Maw sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Elise. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Elise helps Kog'Maw perform worse in competitive LoL rounds. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Kog'Maw is an ally to Elise, he gets a little drop in his complete damage output. This could signal that Elise does not help cover for him to deal more damage or that her presence on the team also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Kog'Maw is played together with Elise on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Elise.

Additionally, when Kog'Maw plays with Elise on the same team, he typically receives a little less damage than when he fights alone. Getting dealt not as much damage may indicate that Elise does a decent job of covering Kog'Maw in team fights.

Is Kog'Maw better when played alongside Elise?

There is no ideal champion pairing for Kog'Maw that will always be his ideal ally. However, overall, Elise is a terrible teammate for Kog'Maw. By locking into the same team as Kog'Maw, she decreases their win rate by -11.6% to 37.4%. This signals that there is an easy to overcome and exploit bond between Kog'Maw and Elise that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Elise has a greater difficulty than Kog'Maw. That means Kog'Maw players need to be very careful when finding Elise comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a greater level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

Playing alongside, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to dish out massive AD. When paired, these two can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

Conversely, by aligning Kog'Maw and Elise together, you probably will not be providing your team a great deal of utility. Make sure to include other champions on your team that fills this gap in this pairing's potential.

Regardless of the skill of your Elise ally, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well anyway.
