Is Zyra better when played alongside Olaf?

There is no one best companion for Zyra that will always be her ideal ally. Yet, overall, Olaf is a very typical teammate for Zyra. By being on the same team as Zyra, he drops their win rate by -0.4% to 52.2%. This shows that there is not really a strong synergy between Zyra and Olaf that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Olaf has a much lower diffuclty than Zyra. That means you don't need to be very careful when finding Olaf allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a much lower level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Working alongside, Zyra players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to dish out massive AD. Combined, these champions can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

In contrast, by aligning Zyra and Olaf together, you probably will not be granting your other teammates enough crowd control. Make sure to bring other champions on your team that fills this gap in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of your Olaf ally's skill level, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
