Damage
1,220Kog'Maw
990Zyra
Kog'Maw heavily out-damages Zyra by 230 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. Zyra should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting Kog'Maw's sustained damage advantage take over.
Economy
16,681Kog'Maw
13,552Zyra
Kog'Maw generates a commanding 3,129 more gold per game than Zyra. This substantial economic advantage means Kog'Maw consistently reaches key item breakpoints earlier, creating a compounding lead that grows throughout the game.

Utility
0.3Kog'Maw
1.4Zyra
Zyra brings significantly more crowd control than Kog'Maw, with 1.1 more seconds of CC per minute. This large utility gap makes Zyra far more valuable in setting up jungle ganks, controlling objectives, and locking down targets in team fights.

Sustain
822Kog'Maw
476Zyra
Kog'Maw vastly out-sustains Zyra, healing and mitigating 347 more damage per minute. This massive durability gap means Kog'Maw can absorb significant punishment and remain in lane while Zyra is forced to recall.
