Overall, Olaf sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Braum. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN. This fall shows that Braum helps Olaf perform poorer in competitive League rounds. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is only marginal.

When Olaf tries to synergize with Braum, he sees a little drop in his full damage output. This could indicate that Braum does not help cover for him to deal more damage or that his support also helps extend the match's duration. Similarly, when Olaf is played alongside Braum on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Braum.

Additionally, when Olaf plays with Braum on the same side, he usually takes a little less damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could indicate that Braum does a decent job of protecting Olaf in team fights.

Is Olaf better when played alongside Braum?

There is no top synergy for Olaf that will no matter what be his ideal ally. Yet, Braum is a very typical companion for Olaf. By being on the same side as Olaf, he decreases their win rate by -0.6% to 48.4%. This shows that there is a weak synergy between Olaf and Braum that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.

Braum has a lower difficulty than Olaf. That means Olaf players don't need to be careful when lining up Braum allies to play with, as they will have to have a lower level of skill to cooperate well with you.

Playing alongside, you will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to tank a lot of damage. Together, these champs will be able to tank for the rest of their team.

Although, by pairing Olaf and Braum together, you may not be granting your side very much magical damage output. We recommend you have other champs on your team that offsets this relative gap in this pairing's potential.

Regardless of your Braum ally's skill level, you need to focus on increasing your income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well anyway.
