How to Play with Kog'Maw as Ekko in LoL

The Ekko Kog'Maw synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Kog'Maw, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Ekko sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Kog'Maw. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This worsening shows that Kog'Maw helps Ekko perform not as well in ranked LoL rounds. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Ekko is an ally to Kog'Maw, he observes a small increase in his total damage dealt. This change may demonstrate that Kog'Maw helps provide cover for him to dish out more damage or that his support also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Ekko is played alongside Kog'Maw on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Kog'Maw.

Moreover, when Ekko plays with Kog'Maw on the same team, he on average receives a little more damage than when he fights alone. Receiving more damage may indicate that Kog'Maw does a poor job of protecting Ekko during teamfights.

Is Ekko better when played alongside Kog'Maw?

There is no ideal champion pairing for Ekko that will always be his best teammate. Yet, Kog'Maw is a not very good companion for Ekko. By playing on the same side as Ekko, he drops their win rate by -1.5% to 49.5%. This shows that there is a negative bond between Ekko and Kog'Maw that results in them performing worse together than without each other.

Kog'Maw has a lower difficulty than Ekko. That means Ekko players don't need to be very careful when enlisting Kog'Maw comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a lower level of skill to be able to play well with you.

When playing together, you should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capability to destroy wih physical damage. Combined, these champs should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Conversely, by pairing Ekko and Kog'Maw together, you will not be granting your other teammates a great deal of tankyness. We recommend you have other champs on your team that neutralizes this relative hole in this pairing's capabilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Kog'Maw teammate, you need to focus on increasing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
