Kog'Maw is insanely squishy. He needs the extra range and slow to hit/farm from a safe distance or he gets ravaged by the enemy carry or even minions. As for his passive you should NEVER use it just to secure a kill. it is strictly a last-ditch effort to kill or deal damage when you die.

Kog'Maw also scales quite well into late game as he does a percent of his opponents' health but if he does not do good early then it is incredibly hard to build up again. If he is outfarming you just harass him out of lane. If he is harassing you, stay near your minions and they will go to town on his health bar.

Kog'Maw's ultimate does indeed do quite a bit of damage but it is easy to dodge. If he is just firing it away at you just move away from the pillar. A thing to remember is that it has a larger radius then the tiny pillar makes it seem so don't just stop when you think you're far enough away. If he's spamming it all the better as he will run out of mana really fast.
