Tips for Playing as Azir with Kog'Maw
Be a bird!
In the lane, try to position your soldiers between the enemy's minions and the enemy champion. This way you can use them both to last hit and to project threat onto your lane opponent.
Be careful about putting down both of the soldiers stored by Arise! Unless you're going all-in, always have a soldier in your back pocket if you need to escape over a wall or if you misposition your other soldier and need damage now.
Think of Emperor's Divide as a defensive ability first and foremost. Use it when the enemy engages on you or your allies. Remember that your team can walk through the soldiers summoned by Emperor's Divide and use this to your advantage when enemy melee champions engage on you.

Is Azir better when played alongside Kog'Maw?
There is no top champion pairing for Azir that will always be his #1 teammate. Yet, Kog'Maw is a very bad ally for Azir. By being on the same team as Azir, he decreases their win rate by -5.3% to 44.9%. This proves that there is a very bad strategic relationship between Azir and Kog'Maw that results in them performing worse together than alone.
Kog'Maw has a much lower diffuclty than Azir. That means Azir players don't need to be very careful when enlisting Kog'Maw comrades to fight alongside, as they will require a much lower level of skill to be able to cooperate well with you.
When playing on the same side, Azir players will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal physical damage. When paired, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.
Conversely, by bringing Azir and Kog'Maw together, you probably will not be providing your team enough protection for burst damage. Plan to bring other champs on your team that neutralizes this relative hole in this pairing's abilities.
Regardless of your Kog'Maw ally's skill level, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
