How to Use Kog'Maw Counter Data
Every matchup on this page, both the ones Kog’Maw wins and the ones it loses, comes from live ranked ADC data. Right now Hwei, Ziggs and Seraphine give Kog’Maw the most trouble, with its lowest win rates in the current dataset. Hwei is the hardest counter of the group: Kog’Maw wins only 40.9% of its 132 recorded games against them. In contrast, Kog’Maw does well against Varus, Mel and Vayne, so those are the safer matchups to face.
Each card displays Kog’Maw’s win rate along with the number of games it’s based on. A figure drawn from tens of thousands of games deserves far more confidence than one built on a few hundred. The Easy, Even and Hard tags are calculated from those win rates, with anything under 48% labeled Hard and anything over 52% labeled Easy. They’re meant as a quick guide, not as a separate statistic. The data covers ranked games at Emerald and above across all regions, currently on patch 16.13.1, and it updates automatically every 48 hours, so the numbers shift as the meta does. Counters tell only part of the story, so for the strongest items and runes, check the current Kog’Maw build, or visit the Kog’Maw champion page for abilities and full details.
