Kog'Maw Mid: analysis & win conditions

patch 16.11 · data-driven

Kog'Maw is an AD carry in the mid, and on patch 16.11 they grade out as a solid mid-tier pick — a 52.4% win rate, 0.3% pick rate, 3,478 ranked games sampled. On the power curve, Kog'Maw is a scaling champion: comparatively weak early, but one of the strongest picks on the map once core items come online — so the plan is to survive the laning phase and take the game over late.

How Kog'Maw wins: grouped 5-v-5 teamfights, where Kog'Maw tips the fight. The kit grades 7/10 teamfighting. Kog'Maw grades low on roaming and disengage (2/10, 2/10), so don't take fights that turn on those dimensions.

The most-played core build is Dusk and Dawn, Shadowflame, Rabadon's Deathcap, which holds a 56.7% win rate across 397 games this patch. Set the enemy team at the top of the page to see how the path shifts against that comp.

The matchup to respect is Thresh, where Kog'Maw sits at just 45.9%, the lane swings the other way into Lee Sin (58.0%), and on the team side, Kog'Maw gains the most from a Jhin (+7.2% pair win rate).
