The Olaf Zoe synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Zoe, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.
Overall, Olaf sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Zoe. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This fall shows that Zoe helps Olaf perform not as well in ranked League games. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is not very impactful.
When Olaf tries to synergize with Zoe, he gets a little decrease in his full damage output. This difference may signal that Zoe does not help cover for him to dish out more damage or that her presence also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Olaf is played together with Zoe on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Zoe.
Additionally, when Olaf plays with Zoe on the same team, he usually takes a little less damage than when he fights alone. Taking not as much damage may mean that Zoe does a decent job of covering Olaf during team fights.
There is no top champion pairing for Olaf that will 100% of the time be his best ally. Yet, Zoe is a very typical companion for Olaf. By locking into the same team as Olaf, she lowers their win rate by -0.6% to 48.4%. This signals that there is not really a strong bond between Olaf and Zoe that results in them performing worse together than alone.
Zoe has a greater difficulty than Olaf. That means you must be careful when lining up Zoe comrades to fight alongside, as they will require a greater level of skill to cooperate well with you.

Regardless of your Zoe ally's ability, you should focus on maximizing your income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you will do well, regardless.
