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

When Olaf is an ally to Ziggs, he sees a little drop in his full damage dealt. This could demonstrate that Ziggs does not provide protection for him to dish out more damage or that his presence on the team also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Olaf is played alongside Ziggs on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Ziggs.
Additionally, when Olaf plays with Ziggs on the same team, he typically takes a little less damage than when he plays alone. Receiving not as much damage may indicate that Ziggs does a decent job of protecting Olaf during team fights.
