Tips Against Kog'Maw in Bottom Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
Hidden Ghoster says âDon't Trade VS Kog'Maw while his W is activated, you will lose. This is somewhat similar to the Jinx matchup. Save your Burst for him when you can All-in him.
â
Jhin and Tonic says âBefore first recall you beat him but afterwards he outscales you really hard. If he has lulu or milio support your lane is lost the moment he gets first item.â
TTV xBobby___ says âPatch 13.10, lot of hybrid damage.
Kogmaw broken I guess, especially on OTPs.
Just smash him in lane. Kog will go crazy at 30mins.
Watch out for Lulu + Kog lane.â
VrNtv says âThis lane is only even if you dont respect his W. He'll use it often to either farm or poke, so just back away, wait it out and he's free game till its back up.â
VrNtv says âTry not to fight him when he has his W active, it gives him % max HP magic damage(8sec). Same as Karthus, you can easily get out of his passive thanks to yours. You both scale really well, it's pretty much a support/jungle diff, so if you have engage support you can try to burst him, but he will probably have Lulu support since its by far best synergy for him. If he has Lulu support leaving your lane pushed is not a bad idea, since he is immobile and can die easily when ganked.
â
RandomNPC777 says âKog'maw can win all-ins against Twitch, but is very weak when his w is down or when he misses q. The two champions have very similar play patterns, kog'maw just has slightly more range in lane. â
support_diff says âKog'Maw is an immobile that isn't very good before level 6, try to punish him early in order to not to play against a hard carry 1v9 Kog'Maw in the late gameâ
wungus says âThe only problem with Kog'maw is closing the gap due to his range, which can be solved with items, dashing through minions, or engage supports.â
SheriffADC says âJust instantly back off when he uses his W, wait for it to run out and look for a possible fight. Extremely easy to all-in with a CC support if he has no peel.â
Lachoni1 says âKog'Maw has better dps and has great range. Beat him in lane and you want your team to target cc him as he has no dash or escape tools.â
Tolis slayer says âUntil he gets about 3 items+boots he is incredibly weak. in lane in order to beat him play as aggressive as possible and poke him since he not only is incredibly weak early but also has no peel or mobilityâ
ChadKarthus says âUsually a free matchup if he has no Lulu, you can perma kill him, try not to trade kills with him, he can rush Wits End and go Ghostâ
moso says âIf it's Kog Lulu it's nearly unwinnable as Ashe. Ashe + a Mage support may be able to warp the matchup but Kog is able to slow you in return and burn you with his superior DPS. But the lane is not unplayable, you just can't fight. He will severely outscale you though.â
slendoooo says âThe main problem with Kog'Maw besides the fact that he outscales and outranges you is the fact that he is one of the few ADCs in league that can also buy Armor, like randuins, frozen heart, etc.
But on the bright side his W ability has a relatively long cooldown early game, so use that to your advantage. If he uses it: fall back and re-engage once it runs out. You will have a 10 second window to punish or kill him.

Matchup:
(To be made)â
Estowitch says âThe worst ADC to play against outranges your entire spells with just W and Lethal Tempo. You can only make a play with Flash W + E + R and hope it kills himâ

Pipimatz says âVery Long range, but as long as he doesn't have a lulu you will scale booth equally strong. But if he has a lulu then pray to jesus or just dodge.â
Santoryo says âDon't try to fight with him if he is using his W for poke/farming as it deals a lot of % damage, other than that you should be okay.â
Corpselover says âKog'Maw is really is to deal with since he has no mobility. Try not to get auto attacked when he used his W and you can kill at level 2 and 3.â
LionelOCE says âKog'Maw can be quite annoying to play against in SoloQ because he excels vs dive when paired with certain champions. Typically he is paired with Lulu and other peel champions and requires your team to play well around waves. It is important to fight a lot early against Kog'Maw and try build a lead to avoid being outscaled.â
LionelOCE says âKog can out dps you in teamfights but he is quite an awkward champ to execute in soloq because he lacks utility. Try provide more to the game with your E and R and you can also often punish him in lane with the right matchup.â
IEnjoyPlaying says âPlays defensive in lane and outscales you. doesnt matter if u win lane. And i dont know why this game allows it but he usually buys tank items too so i literally do negative damage.
Pray he has a Braindead Supportâ
Sanz_Moonshidder says âDon't have much experience against him but he can definitely be a problem for you if the lane ends neutrally so either stomp him or farm to outscale him.â
NotAragami says âVery immobile hyper carry. Kog needs a lot of babysitting in early game to actually kill people, trade with charged zap and dash out if he tries to engage on you with the slow goo. â
franksterzz says âThis can go either way. He's a late game monster, but is half a champion if not paired with an enchanter. You should be able to beat him early if he isn't and after that he becomes fairly useless.â
DixonTheGuideMaker says âKogâMaw is rather squishy in the early game. Try to abuse his weakness and look for fights to set him behind. Post-6, KogâMaw will deal lots of damage in a trade thanks to his Bio-Arcane Barrage(W) and his Ultimate Living Artillery(R). Try to bait out his Bio-Arcane Barrage(W) before committing to the all-in. Forcing KogâMaw to overextend for farm is a good way of winning the matchup. As he will be overextended, this will allow your Jungler to gank your lane. This will also force him to use his Ultimate Living Artillery(R) or Bio-Arcane Barrage(W) to farm with- which you can capitalise on.â

Amberdragon says âHis poke is annoying but as long as you don't feed him early if you get on top of him there is not much he can do. He relies on autos, use W when he uses his W. Support matchup will dictate how the lane will go a lot of timesâ
Kronaa says âI pray for the day this champion gets a VGU and becomes super gigachad.
Just dash on him he cant do much. Do not eat poke or he will win somehow. (learned the hard way. Like I still won the game cuz I dashed on him a bunch but like bro was fed)â

Kamicali says âHe has deceptively high damage, try not to fight him without your support. Bio-Arcane Barrage allows Kog'Maw to kill Baron Nashor extremely early. It can be valuable to ward Nashor when Kog'Maw completes his Blade of the Ruined King. Kog'Maw doesn't have a good escape ability, so he is especially prone to ganks.â
NorVillain2 says âKog'Maw is very easy to kill. He doesn't have any stun, you just can land your Q and kill him (he's not Veigar people's). But clearing your waves can be problem for Kog'Maw W.â
2saif4u says âWhen he is coupled w/ Lulu it can be very annoying. Don't trade while he has Hail of Blades up and his W. Just play around its cooldowns.â
Amberdragon says âSame as Jinx and Twitch, overall he outscales you and he also has a higher range, plus slows. It is hard to get on top of him and survive.â
Dravenhalal says âHe can be pretty scary if he's with a lulu but otherwise he's a tiny threat.
Make sure to use beast hunter Draven so you can roleplay monster hunter. Exhaust if against lulu + kog otherwise heal works fine.â
V1gorous1 says âlong range , has a slow and is incredibly strong in all ins trading 1 for 1 early with this champ in the early game is almost inevitable because of his passive however its not worth because he outscales you hard â
Kitqsune says âEasily the absolute worst matchup for Samira. outranges you and deals tons of damage from early - late and never falls off, hard to get onto due to slows and can easily melt you due to attack speed steroid and armor/mr shred. If you're facing kog i'm so sorry â
7EyesNoSkills says âUsually you can win trades against him, but if his support is something like Lulu or Janna, you can't. Also he can poke you from far behind.â

LewisTheRat says âHe outscales as a duelist. Strong late game, avoid his poke and focus him first in teamfights. Avoid his ghost when you kill him.â
2saif4u says âWhen he is coupled w/ Lulu it can be very annoying. Don't trade while he has Hail of Blades up and his W. Just play around its cooldowns.â
TangsterinE says âTarget the Enchanter support helping him and kill him. He needs 3-4 items to even come online and you can kill him many times before he reaches that point.â
Demonsedge90 says âKog'Maw is easy to take down, so just don't let him kill you too much or feed him. The big thing to do is poke him down in the lane often before level 6.â
wardinbush says âIt depends more on his build and support, but other than that be careful of his w range and pokes with his e and q armour reduction in lane. He will most likely build kraken slayer for more dps so be careful and play around the team when you see he has itâ
Krilep says âAlthough Kog'Maw is not a high priority pick in this patch, play the same way as you would against Ashe. Wait until Kog'Maw has used his W, you will have 10 seconds to trade with him before he gets it back up and that is his only threat of damage.â
Valhalla Coach says âNormally this matchup is easy but he is broken right now. He outscales you incresdibly well and his trade early is also very strong. Your best bet is trying to freeze in front of your tower post 6 so he has to overextend and you can ult him. If you ult him in teamfights and you have a decent team he is probably deadâ
Sellsword says âKog'Maw is rarely played and whenever you face him, he will be 90% likely played with a Lulu. This makes the lane very hard because Lulu can shield your Q poke and if you push them under their turret, they can easily run you down by using their W's. Sivir has no escapes so this trade usually ends up favoring Kog'Maw. Try to spellshield his Q if you can because it reduces your defenses if it hits.â
Amberdragon says âKog'maw is squishy and immobile. After 6 his poke and long range will be a nuisance, but if you can get close enough to him you easily kill him unless he has a Lulu. Lethal Tempo rework made this matchup a bit harder for you though. Overall, easy to deal with in lane unless he has a Lulu or a strong peel/disengage support.â
Nom212 says âHe's immobile and takes some time to get his damage out. You can mostly blow him up by throwing a Q Boomerang Blade. Respect his additional range from W Bio-Arcane Barrage. Combined with the slow from E Void Ooze you might end up being out of position. If his abilities are on cooldown he is much weaker and easy to pick off.â
Amberdragon says âSame issue as Jinx - can out-DPS you from range. However, if you get on top of him he is easy to burst if he doesn't have a Lulu at his side. He is also easier to shut down in the early game.â
Axelent says âKog can actually win this matchup pretty easily its hard for draven to reach kog if he plays with his W correctly and his e slow makes it hard to run him down in lane.â
IKeepItTaco says ââ KogâMaw is pretty similar to Jinx as heâs a long range hyper scaling ADC that wants to chill so the way you want to interact with him will be fun.
â KogâMaw âs default range is 500, but [[Bio-Arcane Barrage]] will increase it to 710 at max rank. Similarly to Jinx who goes from 525 range to 775 range. The biggest difference is JInx can switch whenever she wants while KogâMaw âs is gated behind his ability that lasts 8 seconds.
â After his long range wears off then thatâs when you want to poke him with [[Fishbones, the rocket launcher]] and bully him.
â Donât try to trade or 1v1 when he has [[Bio-Arcane Barrage]] activated because itâll shred your hp since it does a % of your max HP.
â Look to land [[Zap!]] into [[Flame Chompers!]] combos because KogâMaw is extremely immobile and you might be able to make things happen!
â Win Condition: Abuse KogâMaw when you find the right moments to. Heâs very immobile and easy to catch so let your teammates know youâre ready to setup ganks with ease using your abilities.
â
I Am Not u says âThis little bugger is really irritating. He pokes like a coward and you can't really do anything about it. Just hope your support is anyone with a grab, really. He's immobile, so if you can get the drop on him, you're good. Have your support tank the damage, also. You do have the upper hand in most 1v1s because of how you are, but make sure to save your W for when he's about to explode after he dies.â
Amberdragon says âHe's very vulnerable early on, trade with him and you'll win. Be careful with his support though, you may need to take them down first.â
Vixylafoen says âLots and range and damage. He can follow up his Support very well and get fed very easily. His passive though is near useless after the beginning of the match and he can't do much if you manage to put him behind, which can be done easily if you isolate him.â
LegendaryOstrich says âAlthough Kog'Maw is not a high priority pick in this patch, play the same way as you would against Ashe. Wait until Kog'Maw has used his W, you will have 10 seconds to trade with him before he gets it back up and that is his only threat of damage.â
Callmebee says âA rare sight but I can't say I want to see more AP KogMaw's in mid. He pushes in really easily but you can one shot him if you do catch him and he is pretty easy to gank as he has no escape. Take barrier.â
LostFishEU says âKog'Maw doesn't really have any threat against Vayne. You win vs him by sustain and 1v1. Kog'Maw doesn't have any kind of all in and rely on his support to make the plays.â
ELOSANTA says âKog'Maw is not a big problem for Lucian in the early game, as Kog'Maw hasn't ramped up his attack speed by then. Matchup is in Lucians favor pre 6, post 6 mostly losing matchup unless your support can dictate the lane. Late game avoid him at all costs as he is a demolishing machine late game.â
Coldsong says âKog'Maw is only a threat with a Lulu or sometimes a Yuumi, otherwise he is a piece of cake for Samira. You can easily dodge his ult and E since they are slow and telegraphed, and also his W may outrange you but is a long cooldown and his base attack range is 500 just like yours. However, he will demolish you late game to try to end as soon as possible and buy early armor penetration since Kog'Maw likes defensive items like Randuinsâ
Vapora Dark says âLate game god, but requires his team to keep him safe. Early-mid game, he's incredibly weak and can easily be pushed around. Early game always force fights and grenade bounces. Thanks to his low mobility, you can easily set up your E, W combo and show him his Curtain Call.â
NikkiTT says âWits End rush just really enables this champion hard, your best means to win this lane is to have a hard engage support, trying to oneshot him and snowball early game, even better if you try to do that after he has already wasted W. Also going exhaust is a really big must on this matchup.â
Simon Uchinora says âKog'Maw is a curious one, he will have more range than you with his W, and his Q break armor and the E will give you slow, you can easily kill him, but if you do in the wrong way, he is gonna turn the lane against you easily, try to make an ambush.â
Rihh says âSupport dependant. Typically Kog'Maw will be paired with a Lulu, in which he becomes a siginficantly stronger threat, however if not paired with Lulu or you have a good poking support, Kog'Maw will not be much of a threat until post-3 items. Positioning is key in this matchup as mitigating his DPS while his W is up is critical.â
Melyn says âBe very careful about his attack steroid (listen for the audio queue and/or visual) which greatly increases his range and damage. Force trades outside of that.â
Chaeha says âKog'Maw has a temporary range expanding ability with his bio-arcane barrage, however just wait out the cooldown of this ability and you can win the trade, so overall it's an even matchup. â
Swearing Roomba says âKog'Maw may seem like a late game hyper carry, but in reality you lose early. Your best bet is trying to focus him in teamfights.â
angata500 says âHonestly he can only match your range when he uses his W. At all other times you can poke him for free.Pretty weak early so u should definately go aggresive and trade often ( when he goes for a cs usually). Stay behind minions so you dont get him by his Q. Beware of his late game power spike. No mobility = always follow up on ganks or rush him if he is out of position.â
R3Veal says âLate game god if fed. He can also poke you in lane with his W and his passive lets him make it out with a kill for a kill. Trade when his W is on cooldown.â
Urason says âSo you would think that Akshan would murder Kog'maw because he's so immobile. Well, you're kinda right. The issue is, Kog'maw can often out DPS you in a 2v2 and he also out scales you. Not to mention the high amount of range and harass he can provide. That being said, if you get ahead, you can keep farming him for gold (unless he has a Lulu :( )â
King Turtle says âTank'Maw was already a pretty widespread issue in bot a few patches ago, his recent AP scaling buff on E could bring some concerns back depending on how he plays into the pile of ADC buffs and mini reworks we've had in 11.17 and 11.18â
SopTop says âOh hey, it's your hybrid-damage brethren, the one that dies! Yeah Kog'Maw cant really do anything past the laning phase, and even then, he kinda just has the support do everything.â
yers says âJust like you, he has no mobility at all. Highly squishy, usually the support would also know he can be easily killed level 2. A Q-E-STUN-AA combo should be enough to allow the support to catch the koggers and score a kill.â
Lightfeather says âTry to avoid his W dmg.
Kog'Maw always comes with Lulu so ehm yea either your support/jungle helps you shut him down or its just game tbh.â
HyroPyro says âKog'Maw's damage early game comes from the Bio-Arcane Barrage (W) and Lethal Tempo. Make sure that you are not getting auto attacked for free due to his increased range during Bio-Arcane Barrage. Otherwise, Kog'Maw is a late game carry that can be easily killed with Kai'Sa's early burst.â
Kenzo1 says âYou need to win lane vs Kog as most ADCs but for Kai'Sa this is especially true. His non mythic build is especially irritating to deal with for you.â
Pengwan says âEasy to hit, doesn't have any engage, reliant on Lulu as support. Just don't go into his attack range and you should be able to beat kog quite easilyâ
lookingforguide says âKog'Maw's W is annoying and can keep you out of range to last hit, you really need a good poke/engage support to effectively deal with early Kog'Mawâ
Ekezun says âHe has no escape so poking him and letting your support engage and killing him will most likely not be a problem, just make sure to remember if he has W up or notâ
Harambe Homie says âKog maw, similarly to Twitch can really make you work for the win. Luckily Kog isn't picked often but he is a rough matchup at times. He can basically just stand still auto and kill you so be carefulâ
MiningRicK says âKogÂŽMaw isnÂŽt that good in the current Meta and you can one-shot him after one powered Q. But doesnÂŽt underrestemate his machine gun mouth.â
majororange77 says âFull info in Guide.
Do not let him scale. He's similar to Vayne, except his early game is weaker and his late game is stronger.â
FunkyBeagle says âThis lane is only even if you dont respect his W. He'll use it often to either farm or poke, so just back away, wait it out and he's free game till its back up.â
DoublefeedOP says âKog'Maw is pretty easy alone, but with a lulu he's pretty oppressive. You can poke him, but do so when his W is on cooldown. All-ins are easy against a kog'maw so taking an aggressive support is a must vs Kog'Mawâ
DoublefeedOP says âYou won't really see a Kog'Maw unless it's a Kog/Lulu lane so I'll just talk based off of that specific lane. If you go an all-in comp (Jhin/Pantheon) You should be able to easily score a few kill just like the Jinx lane or freeze the lane and deny them CS. Take advantage of their weak early game and make Kog'Maw useless before he can ever scale into the monster he is late game. Slow pushing for dives in higher elo is great if you've got a jungler and can poke them down enough to make them viable.â
CheeselordMax says âa really insane kog'maw/kog'maw with a lulu is absolutely one of the worst things to deal with in the game.
a good kog can land maybe 1-2 autos in for free before you can get in range, and combine that with his q and you could be in for a world of hurt if it lands.â
KoZee says âA good Kog'Maw has some counter play into Varus, but usually isn't a big issue. He has little mobility and will struggle to dodge your poke consistently, while also being super squishy. The key to winning this lane though is going to be playing around his W cooldown, as that is going to be his main key to winning a trade, so baiting it and then punishing while it's on cooldown can destroy him. He's especially strong with Lulu, who can provide him survivability and shields while buffing his damage overall.â
Delta eGirl says âYou both scale. In lane you should be able to bully him, although if he's paired with a good support that may not be the case. Watch out for his damage, it will catch you by surprise.â
FaceLikeAStreamer says âStrong laning due to W. U lose trades against him. Wave control is huge vs him due to his positioning wait for his W coldown and try to all in him or his support (most likely smomething squsihy - lulu,nami,janna etc.)â
BRYSE DRAVEN XD says âKOGMAW AND LULU WILL ALWAYS OUT TRADE YOU. IF YOU HAVE A CC SUPPORT YOU CAN EASILY WIN. BUT THEY SCALE HARD SPECIALLY WHEN LULU HITS 6. WITHOUT A LULU, OR A HARD PEEL, KOGMAW IS FREELO.â
Xayaphelia says âIf you cannot play around his W cooldown good luck with this one. If you find a good opportunity to burst him out with your E then the matchup is pretty easy. But the potential is always going to be there to get out spaced and burnt down from range.â
TheGronne says âHis E can be quite annoying, and his R can't be blocked. His W has long aa range, so if you want to fight him, wait for your support to engage.â
ooftheiii says âKog'Maw does not have any escape abilities, making him an easy target. Try to focus him in teamfights first.Run away from Kog'Maw's corpse as it will explode shortly dealing a lot of true damage. â
kingamazin says âKog'maw is a fairly easy matchup. Try to bait out his w by going for an auto trade with rockets, and back off. Kog'maw is extremely weak without his enhanced autos from his w, so use this time to harass/trade with him.â
Bluestrat says âSimilar to Jinx, Kogmaw only becomes dangerous after level 7/9. Before that, we can simply fight him. We just have to make sure that his W is on cooldown.
Once we have the Q-EVOLVE, we can easily fight Kog in 1v1. â
CiverSkyx says âKog'maw has a lot of range and attack speed, it can leave us badly stopped, but it does not have much damage at the beginning of the game and that is where we can get an advantage. but it doesn't mean that we can beat him later on if we don't fight him at firstâ
Bluestrat says âĂhnlich wie Jinx, wird Kogmaw erst ab Level 7/9 gefĂ€hrlich. Davor können wir ihn einfach bekĂ€mpfen. Wir mĂŒssen lediglich darauf achten, dass sein W auf Cooldown ist.
Sobald wir den Q-EVOLVE besitzen, können wir Kog im 1v1 bekĂ€mpfen. â
Atrickster says âUse your E to avoid his heavy W dmg and you should be fine if its a kog lulu he will outscale but you should be fine if your jgl and mid have a brain and roamâ
ctm20141 says âIf you have an aggressive engage support you will be 8/0 at 10 mins XD. He is pretty threatening IF he has a Lulu support, otherwise he is dead meat most of the times.
You win 1v1s vs him, but in late game teamfights you will generally lose if your team can't kill Koggy fast enough :D.â
ComradeElmo says âSuper weak early just stomp him early and he's pretty useless until he gets 3 items but once he starts to scale he becomes a menace.â
Remmacs1 says âKog'maw is a surprisingly annoying match up for Aphelios do to the nature of Kog'maw's kit. Kog'maw does a large amount of magic damage with his abilities and also has the range advantage on Aphelios. Look to out dps him with chakrams when he wastes E in lane.â
Dank672 says âLiterally just a superminion early, easy to poke out and unless they have a lulu u win all-ins. Like jinx keep pressure and poke while denying cs and you win lane.â
Profesor APH. says âkog'maw is bad adc (not in meta) he got upgrade but he still need to be feed to do something in game
he dont have any dash any higher movement speed his r is pretty easy to dodge even when it hits you, ur life steal do all workâ
EvoNinja7 says âKog'Maw has a powerful slow with his E, and it can easily allow an engage on you. But this does cost a lot of mana for him. His Q can also slow you but it's really easy to dodge. His W is what you need to scared of though, since it gives him one of the highest auto attack ranges in the game and increases his attack speed heavily. He can shred through you if he gets Kraken Slayer. He is immobile and easy to gank. Another thing as well, his ult can slap your health from a insane distance away, so be careful if your backing on low health.â
RegalFlash says âDon't underestimate him and play around your support who hopefully can engage on him. If you get close range you should win an all in.â
Scrimm says âKog'Maw is a walking bag of gold for Kai'sa. No mobility, no ridiculous healing, just dodge his skillshots and assert dominance on your weaker Void ADC.â
SkittleBtw says âIf he has a lulu this could be super bad, seriously, don't die to them. Ask your jungler for a gank, play safe. If he doesn't have a lulu, it's free real estate. Just look out for his W, back off when he uses it, try to mess him up when it's on CD.â
Kalista Monster says âHe is a little harder to face early because he has stronger poke, slow on his e and is almost always with a Lulu. Without lulu is isn't a threat at all though.â
ApheliosMain62 says âSome of the easiest kill for an Aphelios, abuse him on the early and you will be fine, he only do something when he get his 3 itemâ
jhoijhoi says âKog'Maw is a hyper carry and deals tremendous damage mid and late game. He is easy to gank with his lack of mobility, relying on his Void Ooze to slow enemies. However, he has incredible range while Bio-Arcane Barrage is active, and will attempt to poke you down during this time. Keep moving in lane, as Kog will attempt to hit you with Living Artillery; if you are hit by this ability, sight is granted to the enemy team, meaning he can keep landing them on you if his prediction skills are good enough.â
LIKKEaBOSS says âKog maw has longer range, and he will poke you on every last hit, he is really annoying, and play against him just if you have hard cc support to take him downâ
GariKun says â*plants versus zombies like this element*
jokes apart, he's very vulnerable in early.
Use well your e in late and he wont couse any trouble.
If he's fed, pick fights only if helped by some cc ally champ.â
Bouhhsolene says âHis slow and his ranges are quite annoying, just like his attack speed. You can't 1v1 him with his high attack speed, the time for you to cast one auto, he 1 0 you. â
SweatMeALake says âKog almost has no lane presence, though is a late game hyper carry similar to Twitch, he is a team wipe champion, so it is your job to slow down his ramping. Your ultimate is a big shut down to Kog. When his W is activated he has more range than you. He is immobile so you can catch him out and get a pick on him. â
ShroudedBRH says âKog'maw has access to extremely high damage output later in the game. Try to abuse him early during lane phase depending on what each of your supports can do. However avoid feeding him unnecessary gold and accelerating his power spikesâ
Camelorry says âHe outranges you with his w and his e can be a pain in the ass, but you should be able to kill him pretty easily unless he is paired with a Lulu or Yuumi. In that case bring with you an engage support. â
EvoNinja7 says âHe has a few dangerous slows but like you, he also has a pretty bad early game, so don't be scared of him when he is forcing you in a bad position. Be careful of him when he gets his Blade of the ruined king though, because from there he can snowball hard.â
EvoNinja7 says âOut ranges you with his W and out scales you. Once he hits level six his R can snipe you from half a screen away and it has low mana cost at first usage. Try to poke him and drive him out of lane, don't give him time to scale.â
snukumz says âHe has low mobility so it's easy for you to harass and snare him. He's super squishy so burst him down is easy for Zyra. Watch out for his damage late game but early game he should be your bitch.â
Terrific says âI think a good Kog'maw shits on Draven if he uses his W correctly in laningphase, but you most likely win against him if he does not have a Lulu or anything to back him up. Care for his late game he hurts a lot but is very immobile so go abuse that.â
Alonixlol says âKog'Maw is best known for being a mid-late game hypercarry and respectively his laning phase is appropriately weak to compensate. He can't push very well early on, has very weak trading in lane, very weak poke until level 6 when it becomes okay, very poor followup to engages, and is himself highly vulnerable to them.
When actually in a winning matchup he won't have a hard time exerting pressure between his massive auto-attack range during Bio-Arcane Barrage and his long range poke with Living Artillery, but he doesn't bring much kill potential to the lane. When in a bad matchup he won't have a problem farming safely while avoiding trades but can be easily divable by a strong enough all-in duo.â
SuPIeX says âYou can burst him down way faster than he can respond, even late game. He's also very immobile. Coordinate with your support to engage on him over and over. The only danger is in letting him scale and become a serious threat to the rest of your team.â
xSEASeahawks12 says âI actually love seeing Kog'Maw being locked in on the other team. He is absolutely allergic to sticky champions with his complete and utter lack of mobility, and if you land one basic on him you can follow him around the rest of the map if needed. Just dodge his E, as the slow hinders your ability to jump, and you're golden. For the late game, don't let him go full-artillery in team fights, as that's when he can actually hurt. Instruct your support to target him off of your Fate's Call, and he should be quickly disposed of.â
Zoodyacc says âHe can outrange you easily, however you can trade against him early. If there's a Lulu with him, respect your damage and try to focus him down.â
atonementblade says âKog'Maw has no mobility, so if your support can land cc, you can follow up with a Q and easily force him out of lane. His W allows him to outrange you, but an engage support can nullify the threat if they can gap close reliably.â
atonementblade says âWithout a dedicated team to peel for him, Kog'Maw's lack of mobility makes him an easy target to blow up. In lane, you can be aggressive with your support because you can outdamage him if you proc Press the Attack.â
LupinTheCat says âKog'Maw is a pest, pre lvl 6 he won't do THAT much damage, so you should poke him down, when he gets his ult just look at his mana and you should have a decent idea if you should engage or notâ
MayeLeven says âHe can poke you with his Q or E, but it's easy to dodge, and it makes a little damage. After level 6 he can poke you with his R, but you can easily dodge it. He can't really escape from you, especially with your passive, so he is an easy target for you during the early game. After the mid-late game he become a hypercarry, but you can kill him with your R.â
Deathfeather says âpeople play kogmaw in 2019? well, the couple that do are in for it because hes bad. watch out for the passive and dont take long trades and you win lane.â
Szauronmester says âIf its W is down you can kill him, he is useless. Otherwise, don't cs while he uses it and you will be fine. He outscales you, but you can 1v1 him lategame.â
ZERO Destructo says âIf you can dodge his ultimate well enough, this lane should be a piece of cake. Get some Dancing Grenades on him and snare him when you can. Just be aware of his passive. He is really weak early game, so try to punish him if he engages into fight with you, since he has no escape except flash.â
Nik7857 says âYou can easily win lane, but you can also fuck it up. Don't underestimate his damage when his W is activated. When you trade with him as soon as he activates W hop back E and wait for it to end then decide whether you can go back in while it's down. Pray you end the game before late game.â
Eccentricks says âUnless its the dreaded Kog'Maw + Lulu, he isn't too bad. He just got a buff, which he really deserves, and Kog'Maw mains wanted. But, he still can't really fight Twitch well. Just don't get stuck in the vomit and watch for artilery puke. â
Deathfeather says âI dont think sane people play this champ in 2019, but in case they do, end the game fast because he scales hard. Respect his damage too.â
Mr. Nyahr says âKog can be either pretty easy or extremely scary depending on the player's skill. He has literally no escapes, so he can't run from you effectively. Keep an eye on his W cooldown and dodge his Q. Do not let him get ahead, or you're in for a long game.â
MewlingRavenPaw says âMake Kog'Ma scared of you then disengage once he Pops his W. Rend early if you must to make sure he can't get multiple free auto attacks off since HP swings can lose you the early game. Then re-engage with your support once his W wore off. Synergy with your support is key and thus why it's a harder lane in soloQ than it should be. â
minepro221 says âHis strength is punishing you on cs when his w is up. So don't go for cs if you can get punished. If his w is down, you get to punish him with auto q. you also win all in fight if you hit W, as he have no escape. Late game, you should be able to sort him out, as you have a assasin adc that can dive and kill him if his team have no cc. In short, later on, unless they have a lulu mid, kench top, and blitzcrank sup, you should be good to go. â
Kynaz0071l0l says âIf you have a tanky support with you he will tank the damage kogmaw sends out. Kogmaw does no damage in lategame so he shouldnt be a problem there.â
Eucalyptus says âIt depends, you abuse him early-mid but if he scales you're likely fucked if they have an enchantress. His late game without shields is terrible and he is extremely easy to kite, just a shit Twitch.â
Fruxo says âTry to harass him down early on, you want to deny him farm as much as possible as it denies him getting his powerspike items. During the late game it's way better to stay with your team as Kog'Maw will be able to spike during this and will really hurt at this phase of the game.â
dravenfizz says âHis W gives him damage and attack range, play around this ability early on and after you get a kill or two just run him down , late game this champion is very strong.â
Fruxo says âTry to harass him down early on, you want to deny him farm as much as possible as it denies him getting his powerspike items. During the late game it's way better to stay with your team as Kog'Maw will be able to spike during this and will really hurt at this phase of the game.â
IPodPulse says âBe cautious of his Bio-Arcane Barrage and try to keep your distance when he uses it, maximum % health damage is a threat to everyone. When Bio-Arcane Barrage is down, look for a trade or an engage, he is at his weakest during this period.â
Righteous Maniac says âAnother annoying matchup (see a trend?). His E slows and does a decent amount of damage as well as helping push the wave. Try not to trade if he has W up. His Ult after 6 becomes pretty oppressive too. You can generally one shot him if alone but he normally has an e girl sucking him off so watch out.â
Exs Xena says âKog'Maw, unless played with a Lulu, doesn't have any early presence in trades, make sure you punish him for this and try to build an early lead, you'll need it, because he'll outdamage you every game once 4 items come in. â
Potato95x says âWhen you kill him, RUN. His body will run and manage to kill you depending on your health. His Q weakes your defenses (and gives him AS as passive), his E deals a lot of magic damage as it forces slow on you. His Ult takes some time to get on you. Try to avoid all these abilities and you'll be fine.â
GORE Klabok says âEasy Matchup i Guess , You can Dodge all the skillshot with dashes and kog'maw is pretty slow and weak.
Even with a tank Peel support Kalista Should Win laneâ
FrankynFood says âSolid hybrid damage and he also has higher attack speed than you early on or maybe even the whole match. He has armour shred so try to dodge his q. â
SlashLion says âI don't see Kog'Maw very often. But when i do i want to tear my hair out. if he gets fed its GG, I honestly haven't played enough against Kog to give many solid tips. Avoid his passive if you score a kill as it can usually result in him getting shutdown gold. Aside from that, best advice is the simplest answer; Just don't feed.â
lonely Xatu says âhas greater range than you and can be a problem when he gets frozen mallet. however, he is very fragile, so take advantage when you can.â
MallisTheGreat says âMostly a pain, wouldn't suggest playing against him. If you happen to be playing against Kog'Maw, just make sure to poke first and dodge him poking.â
MallisTheGreat says âWouldn't personally play against Kog'Maw because of his poke potential. No big deal though, just try to dodge his pokes and block his way of escape while engaging with your E, because he doesn't have any escape.â
Vortiris says âQuite squishy, but make sure to dodge his Caustic Spittle when dueling him. Once you kill him, watch out for Icathian Surprise. You can beat him mid and late game if you play it right.â
Gun God Mike says âKog'Maw not have so much mobility so when your supp engage him put e and w him and you get him.The reisk become major when he gets fed or when he finish core items.â
Shderen says âWhile you're often on the good end of a trade, his E can deal a surprising amount of damage if he's maxing it and going AP (very likely in mid). Also, it can go to SHIT if he starts pinging them long range ults on you. Be wary. He is SUPER immobile though.â
Niculae01 says âTrades against him are balanced, mostly you will die 1-2 times cause of his passive. Take your distances when trading against him.â
Fruxo says âTry to harass him down early on, you want to deny him farm as much as possible as it denies him getting his powerspike items. During the late game it's way better to stay with your team as Kog'Maw will be able to spike during this and will really hurt at this phase of the game.â
jster131 says âYou shitstomp him early, but if he is good, he will massacre the late game with strong peel and decent kiting skills. You need to take control of the game and try to end before Kog'Maw starts to snowballâ
xTheUnlimited says âThe second on-hit ADC on the list. You got an advantage over him in laning phase since you have the better poke damage and chance to waveclear and pressure the lane. If it comes to late game damage he will easyly outscale you, because his W works way better with on-hit than your kit. Don't let him get into late !â
xTheUnlimited says âDepending matchup. If you can snowball in lane, you win. If he farms through safely he can outscale you in late game. Due to his mobility it should be easy to catch him though. â
xTheUnlimited says âActually an easy lane. Even though he isn't weak in lane you have alot more early power and can prevent him from coming into mid to late game where he deals alot of Damage. Go aggro on him. â
Vaedelive says âIf kog'maw plays lane safe, he will 100% outscale you and win. You HAVE to win lane to have a chance to win the game. Be very aggro.
try to keep the wave in the middle or close to your tower, so you have a lot of space to all in him on.â
B34STLYG4M3R says âWhen Kog's W is up, he is basically in Sicko Mode. Avoid trading when his W is up, it outranges you and outdamages your damage. â
weinerman says âhah, pathetic, this champion is pretty weak in lane, considering caitlyn (someone who is known as decent in lane) has the same niche of big weiner attack range but gets spanked you can assume correctly that kogmaw gets spanked the same way. his ult is usually used to zone u/catch u off guard for free damage but u can spell shield it ez mode (obviously). â
EagleBlades says â"Countered you"
but it really is a close match-up. Just wait for his w to go on cooldown and you press your w and watch as his cs gets punished heavily.â
Hers Wolf says âKog'maw is a reaaaaaaally lategame champ, and he's reaaaaally easy to kill, keep on poking him and its going to be the easiest lane in your lifeâ
Seigemaster035 says âEarly trades can go either way. The only matchup I would recommend taking Press the attack 100% to win early trades soundly. Just engage on him late and burst him before he dishes out his damage.â
Nittwerp says âOnce you hit lvl 6, it will be easy to win against Kog'maw (If he doesn't have a janna or Lulu) you can just simple engage on him when his W is on cooldown and you will win. However don't underestimate the power of kog'maw when his W is up.â

Tips Against Kog'Maw in Middle Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
V1kt0r555 says â[Dodge his Q]
[Avoid getting outranged by his W]
[Run away when he dies]â
Anguish333 says â- Basically just dodge everything
- Even if he is playing full ap, don't trade when his W is up (he will glow)
- Don't forget about his passive after killing himâ
AnxialSociety says âElectrocute blood eyeball treasure.
Absolute scorch.
Squishy, but deals a deceptively high amount of damage. Go for early pushes and the eventual surprise long-range-e into q.â
Sakuritou says âThe worst ADC to play against, outranges your entire spells with just W and Lethal Tempo.
You can only make a play with Flash W + E + R and hope it kills him (which it probably won't because of shieldbow + wits end)
Pray you have an assassin in ur teamâ
Body Those Fools says âKog'Maw is a decent pick into Azir because of his long range when he builds AP. In this matchup, you'll be focused on dodging his skillshots and trading with a Q+AA in between his cooldowns and when he walks up to last hit a minion. His E slightly outranges you and has strong wave clear; it's a wide ability, so do your best to dodge it. The slow from it will allow Kog'Maw to land his other abilities such has his Q and Ult. His Q will shred your resistances, and his Ult will do more damage the lower you are and execute you. When his W is activated, he will get bonus % max health magic damage on his autos and extended attack range for 8 seconds, you will ideally want to wait this out if possible since his autos can match your dps in the early game. Since Kog'Maw is immobile, try to coordinate with your jungler to gank mid and get his flash early. This will allow you to Shurima Shuffle him for a free kill if you're able to poke him down or get anymore ganks.â
V1kt0r555 says â[Rune Keystone: Aftershock]
[Summoner Spell: Teleport]
[Starting Item: Doran's Ring or Doran's Shield or Corupting Potion]
[Don't let him free auto attack you]
[Dodge his skillshots when he is lvl 6]
[Run when he dies]â
Esrucnl says âHe will permanently push the wave with his E. Is however easy to gank and kill once you land your ultimate.
If you struggle vs AP Kog'Maw you can ditch the lane and roam and get free kills from other lanes, however you should be able to kill him when you play it properly.â
Azurio says âArtillery mage, so he will play safely and poke you, farm and try to OS him outside of lane or if he waste flash. Easily gankable if he misspose.â
V1kt0r555 says â[Rune Keystone: Arcane Comet]
[Summoner Spell: Teleport]
[Starting Item: Doran's Ring]
[Dodge his skillshots when he is lvl 6]
[Run when he dies]â
Sakuritou says âThe worst ADC to play against, outranges your entire spells with just W and Lethal Tempo.
You can only make a play with Flash W + E + R and hope it kills him (which it probably won't because of shieldbow + wits end)
Pray you have an assassin in ur teamâ
V1kt0r555 says â[Rune Keystone: First Strike]
[Summoner Spell: Teleport]
[Starting Item: Doran's Ring]
[Recommended Mythic Item: Luden's Tempest]
[Dodge his skillshots when he is lvl 6]
[Run when he dies]â
Coorowko says âWhile your burst and sustain gives you the advantage close up, if your abilities are on cooldown or you get caught out at range it's near impossible to escape champs like Kog.
Laning against these kinds of champs is incredibly hard because Diana relies on getting in close and bursting enemies, while they can usually play it safe and out range you every time unless you have help. â
ThePieBeam says âThis champ can oneshot you from across the lane. It's really better to just not engage tbh but if you really feel like doing so make sure his vomit carpet is on cooldown because for some reason it's one of the only abilities that can slow you harder than you can slow, and if you get caught in it he's just going to play outside of your Q range and auto you to death. If you're caught in the vomit floor your best bet is to just try and burst him to death. A R/W/Q combo can usually land if you're good enough to hit it and he's still as squishy as any other ADC so it's really just up to chance if you can get out of that particular scenario. Otherwise, just try to play far away and pray he isn't going AP just so he can fuck with you specifically.â
Callmebee says âA rare sight but I can't say I want to see more AP KogMaw's in mid. He pushes in really easily but you can one shot him if you do catch him and he is pretty easy to gank as he has no escape. Take barrier.â
TcKatfish says â[Press The Attack Runes / Long Sword and Refillable Pots start.] Kog'Maw can be played both AP and AD. Most of the Kog'Maws that go mid will run AP but I will explain both matchups just in case. Running the Survivability Build (AP) is your go to in both instances. This is because even when he goes AD he has a large amount of magic damage still in his kit to make that build optimal. [AD] AD Kog'Maw can't compete with Akshan damage so going all in every time you can is what you will do. Post Lvl 6 doesn't change a thing. [AP] AP Kog'Maw is more threatening if you allow yourself to get poked down by his E. Every time it goes on cooldown go all in. Post Lvl 6 Kog'Maw will start to hurt with his R's be sure to go all in before they stack up too much or dodge them as they are super easy to dodge. Still going all in on repeat is best.â
lonestar1870 says âKog is very weak early, you easily stomp him in lane. He does scale well though and outranges you late game.
You can get prio on the wave in the early levels, he needs at least level 6 to clear the wave quickly and (even then) he uses a lot of mana to push quickly.
Try not to trade autos when he has W activated & avoid his E when possible. Try not to let him E you and the wave at the same time, but also dont let him hit Q on you. If he does hit Q on you, be careful going for a trade since it lowers your resitances.
He outranges you later on in the game, but you should be able to kill him and snowball the game long before then. In mid/late game you can play around vision and try to get picks on him (but he will likely R bushes instead of facechecking).
You can easily 100-0 him at 6 (6 ball ult with Q-E) if you land everything, or you can freeze the wave and get your jungler to gank for you. Kog is extremely vulnerable to ganks (esp if he runs flash/tp instead of flash+ heal/exhaust/ghost).
Electrocute and PR are fine depending on your playstyle.
I prefer TP since you really don't need ignite to kill him (since he's squishy). Ignite is rarely going to be the difference between killing him and not since if you get onto him he's probably going to die regardless.â
WayOfTheTempesst says âHave not seen this champion mid since season 5? Very easy lane, windwall his E and dodge all his ultis with your E. He has no CC or escape so you can just freeze the lane on your side and when he comes up to try to cs you can easily all in him.â
nZk01 says â(ADC) Kog himself is very easy to deal with as you just completely outdamage him even in the lategame you can 1 shot him very easily, just care if he has a Lulu, otherwise very easy.
â
Edg3Lord says âHe is ranged and can poke you, and has a good slow ability, but otherwise, he doesn't have much pressure up until level 6, and you can outtrade him if you get close.â
nZk01 says â(ADC) Kog himself is very easy to deal with as you just completely outdamage him even in the lategame you can 1 shot him very easily, just care if he has a Lulu, otherwise very easy.
â
YourBoiNoa says âCould get strong if he is fed early, but seeing as he is one of the champs with the lowest hp at start, you can guess where im goingâ
Grayified says âKog'Maw has strong poke but isn't that strong if you close the gap. You should be able to out trade him. If it's AP Kog'Maw, avoid his spells, especially E.â
Fadedreformed says âThis isn't gonna be a fun lane after he takes Rylai's you are gonna be vulnerable to ganks for the whole game with the insane amount of slow he has. Try roaming and get yourself ahead or try helping other lanes since he is gonna be playing away from you for the whole gameâ
ai darkfluid says âWill artillery barrage you. Your poke if more consistent with E and overall, will only be a problem late game in teamfights, due to his safety in range. Take burst runes and eliminate him first if possible.
Preferred rune: Electrocuteâ
1256 says âso we are seeing more of ap kog'maw, not rly hard you can run him down after dodging e, he scales pretty damn good but you do better, he's vulnerable to direct engages and thats the only way you kill honestly
fleet+dom, electro if confidentâ
SicKitty says âgood lord is he hard to fight and if done properly you will end the game with both of you 0/0/0 as you are both long range skill shot squishy champs. but honestly the most fun to fight as hes so hard to hit most times, if you throw your Q he can littlery just tun sideways and it will go right past him.â
topal says âThere is a new poke-ap kog built that pro midlaners have started to try out(Bjergsen for instance).He is very squishy .Try to freeze near your tower and all in him with your E or just push and roam.Should be an eazy match upâ
Johnyyboiii says âGreat range on this champ and also deals damage depending on max HP. The same as vayne, stay behind and try to keep him off. A lot easier to hit your Q with this one though, and if you do you should have a meal ready to eat. â
