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

When Illaoi tries to synergize with Olaf, she sees a small decrease in her total damage output. This difference could signal that Olaf does not help cover for her to deal more damage or that his allyship also helps extend the match's duration. Similarly, when Illaoi is played together with Olaf on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays without Olaf. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Olaf.
Additionally, when Illaoi plays with Olaf on the same side, she typically takes a little less damage than when she plays alone. Receiving not as much damage could mean that Olaf does a decent job of protecting Illaoi during teamfights.
