Kogmaw holds a 47.5% win rate in the Mid role on Patch 26.21, 3.4 points below the Mid role average of 50.9%. That is the 51st highest win rate of 56 Mid champions tracked at Emerald+ this patch.

Kogmaw Mid slipped from C to D tier in Patch 26.21. A drop like this usually traces back to direct nerfs, item changes, or a meta shift toward unfavorable matchups, so respect the counter picks more than you did last patch. At D tier, Kogmaw is a mains-only pick this patch: expect to out-knowledge opponents rather than out-stat them.

Champion select decides a lot of Kogmaw Mid games. The hardest matchups this patch are Yone (40.1% win rate for Kogmaw) and Locke (45.2% win rate for Kogmaw): consider banning one or holding your pick until the opponent locks in. On the other side, TwistedFate (54.5%) and Syndra (52.6%) are the matchups to look for, where Kogmaw wins the lane more often than not at Emerald+.
