Who Wins

Pre-6, you have a meaningful level 2 spike when you pair your E onto Lucian with a Q bubble — if you land Q, the kill threat is real because Milio cannot out-heal that burst window instantly.
Post-6, you lose the 2v2 initiative: Kog'Maw's R outranges your Q cast range, Milio's R cleanses your CC, and your W sustain cannot compete with Milio's healing output in a prolonged fight.

Your best trading pattern is to W Lucian first to proc his passive, then immediately throw Q — if Q lands, Lucian can all-in freely; if it misses, use E on Lucian to force a quick trade and back off.
Never use Q as an opener from max range telegraphically; walk up with E active to force a reaction before committing your CC.

You should not roam aggressively in this matchup — Kog'Maw's R will freely poke Lucian to low HP the moment you leave, and Milio provides enough safety that the enemy duo does not need to overextend for you to punish.
If you do roam, do it only after a successful all-in that burns both enemy summoners, and only when the wave is shoved so Lucian is not immediately dived.

Do not use your R reactively to disengage when Milio's R is still available — if you R away and Milio R cleanses your slow on Kog'Maw, you have wasted your ultimate and gained nothing.
Also avoid standing at a predictable angle where Kog'Maw's R can hit both you and Lucian simultaneously, as that poke will drain your mana trying to sustain it.
