Is Nautilus better when played alongside Kog'Maw?
There is no top synergy for Nautilus that will 100% of the time be his best ally. Yet, Kog'Maw is a relatively poor companion for Nautilus. By being on the same side as Nautilus, he decreases their win rate by -1.5% to 47.3%. This clearly indicates that there is a negative bond between Nautilus and Kog'Maw that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.
Kog'Maw has a lower difficulty than Nautilus. That means you don't need to be very careful when finding Kog'Maw teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a lower level of skill to be able to fight well with you.
Fighting on the same side, you will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to dish out massive AD. Combined, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.
Although, by aligning Nautilus and Kog'Maw together, you may not be giving your other teammates a lot of protection for burst damage. We recommend you include other champions on your team that offsets this hole in their playstyle.
Regardless of the ability of your Kog'Maw ally, you should focus on maximizing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well, regardless.
