Overall, Olaf sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Amumu. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN. This worsening shows that Amumu helps Olaf perform not as well in competitive League games. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Olaf tries to synergize with Amumu, he observes a small increase in his full damage dealt. This change could indicate that Amumu helps provide protection for him to deal more damage or that his presence on the team also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Olaf is played alongside Amumu on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays without Amumu. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Amumu.

Moreover, when Olaf plays with Amumu on the same side, he typically receives a little less damage than when he fights alone. Receiving not as much damage may mean that Amumu does a decent job of covering Olaf in team fights.

Is Olaf better when played alongside Amumu?

There is no one best companion for Olaf that will 100% of the time be his #1 synergy. However, overall, Amumu is a pretty good companion for Olaf. By playing on the same side as Olaf, he raises their win rate by 2.3% to 51.3%. This shows that there is a good bond between Olaf and Amumu that allows them to perform better together than without each other.

Amumu has a lower difficulty than Olaf. That means you don't need to be cautious when finding Amumu allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a lower level of skill to work well with you.

Fighting cooperatively, you should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal physical damage. Combined, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Although, by grouping Olaf and Amumu together, you probably will not be granting your other teammates a great deal of anti-tank damage dealing potential. Make sure to have other champions on your team that offsets this relative gap in their potential.

Regardless of the ability of your Amumu teammate, you need to focus on increasing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
