Early game

Your main purpose early game is to farm as much as possible. You must play safe because your damage early on is too low to trade, just focus on CS and activate your W whenever you want to farm more safely. Peeling supps that offer protection like Nami or Sona synergise better with Kog. As soon as you reach level 6 and you get Sheen you can start trading with enemies, but always keep bushes warded and try not to push cause your vulnerablilty yo ganks is quite high as flash is your only reliable escape.
Back to Top

Mid game

Keep farming until you get your two core items: Trinity Force and Blade of the Ruined King. After that you can stert taking part in teamfights. Always try to stay on the backline and use your W smartly, you always should have your W avaliable when starting a teamfight. spam your spells to trigger the Sheen proc. and deal tons of damage. You can also use your R to check bushes.
Back to Top

Late game

Ok now you are a monster, you have your 2 core items plus Infinite Edge and Last Whisper. Stay on the backline and attack the target which is closer to you, no matter if it's a tank. Obviously focus the most squishy champs whenever you can, but don't risk too much. Try to hit Q on a tank to shred its armor and MR, and spam your abilities for the Sheen proc.
