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

This could demonstrate that Veigar does not help cover for him to deal more damage or that his support also helps increase the game's duration. Similarly, when Olaf is played alongside Veigar on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Veigar.

Moreover, when Olaf plays with Veigar on the same team, he often takes a little more damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt more damage could indicate that Veigar does a poor job of protecting Olaf during teamfights.

Is Olaf better when played alongside Veigar?

There is no ideal champion pairing for Olaf that will always be his top teammate. However, overall, Veigar is a below average companion for Olaf. By locking into the same side as Olaf, he decreases their win rate by -1.1% to 47.9%. This shows that there is a bad bond between Olaf and Veigar that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Veigar has a much greater difficulty compared to Olaf. That means Olaf players should be careful when enlisting Veigar teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a much higher level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Working on the same side, you will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magic damage. When paired, these champs are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.

Conversely, by pairing Olaf and Veigar together, you will not be granting your side very much protection for burst damage. We recommend you have other champions on your team that offsets this relative hole in this pairing's abilities.

Regardless of your Veigar ally's ability, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
