Overall, Olaf sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Neeko. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN.

When Olaf plays on the same team as Neeko, he observes a little increase in his complete damage output. This difference may signal that Neeko provides protection for him to deal more damage or that her presence also helps extend the match's duration. Similarly, when Olaf is played alongside Neeko 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 with Neeko.
Additionally, when Olaf plays with Neeko on the same side, he often takes a little more damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt more damage could mean that Neeko does a poor job of covering Olaf during team fights.

Is Olaf better when played alongside Neeko?
There is no ideal synergy for Olaf that will always be his #1 synergy. However, overall, Neeko is a good teammate for Olaf. By playing on the same team as Olaf, she increases their win rate by 2.0% to 51.5%. This clearly indicates that there is a potentially meaningful strategic relationship between Olaf and Neeko that allows them to perform better together than without each other.
Neeko has a greater difficulty than Olaf. That means Olaf players must be careful when arranging Neeko comrades to fight alongside, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to do well with you.
Working alongside, you should see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magical damage. Together, these two are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.
Conversely, by aligning Olaf and Neeko together, you will not be giving your team much cover. We recommend you bring other champions on your team that nullifies this relative disparity in this pairing's capabilities.
Regardless of your Neeko ally's skill level, you need to focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you will do well, regardless.
