Is Lucian better when played alongside Kog'Maw?

There is no universally accepted best ally for Lucian that will always be his top teammate. However, Kog'Maw is a very bad teammate for Lucian. By playing on the same team as Lucian, he drops their win rate by -4.9% to 43.9%. This shows that there is a very bad synergy between Lucian and Kog'Maw that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Kog'Maw has a lower difficulty than Lucian. That means Lucian players don't need to be careful when arranging Kog'Maw comrades to fight alongside, as they will require a lower level of skill to be able to cooperate well with you.

When playing alongside, Lucian players will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to destroy wih physical damage. Together, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

In contrast, by aligning Lucian and Kog'Maw together, you may not be giving your other teammates very much utility. We recommend you have other champions on your team that fills this disparity in their kit.

Regardless of your Kog'Maw ally's ability, you should focus on increasing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well, regardless.
