FH is kind of a waste on Olaf imo. I consider both Shurelya and Randuin to be better utility- and defense-wise. (Shurelya is better for it's price)
Olaf scales better with HP than with resistances.


Shurelya's and Randuin's are hardly what I'd consider "HP" pick ups, although your point is valid in regards to their excellent utility, and yes, they are both great on Olaf.

Shurelya's isn't the better defense item though, I'm sure you're comparing Randuin's and FH.

The build I've been using lately is really simple.

CDR boots, Warmogg's, Frozen heart. My CDR is almost capped immediately, and depending on masteries it will be capped depending on my level.

From here there's a lot of options. Olaf is actually incredibly gear flexible.

Options include Atma's, MoM, FoN, BT, (if you hate Frozen Heart, You'muu's/Randuin's is an option.) Triforce, Fromal, GA, I.E., PD.

Basically Olaf can use any tank item and any AD / auto attack item in the game, and you just have to choose what you want. I feel he scales the best with CDR, tank items, and Triforce, personally. That Q is ridiculous CC in fights when you spam it.

Hey, cdr boots, warmog's and FH, exactly what I said (again, sometimes, if you want to counterbuild your enemy, getting only Glacial Shroud early should also help at that. I mean, 5% cdr isn't the world and Glacial Shroud is rather cheap)

BTW: You forgot wriggle's?

But why get it if you generally don't need it and don't build philo? And you can get better items?

Well you can build it on Olaf, I just generally don't.

Lately I've been experimenting with not building Wriggle's.

Yeah... Zeke's is still bad for supports. If you need the CDR, then get shurelya's, or something. Anything before Zeke's. You don't have the money to waste on that item. Get WotA into spirit visage. Do anything else, because Zeke's is terrible for supports. That last one was a pretty mediocre suggestion meant to compare how bad Zeke's really is.

Here's a list of items for supports that I would get before getting Zeke's in any given game.

BF Sword on Sona
WotA on Leona
Wit's End on Soraka
Morello's on Alistar
Last Whisper on Janna
Malady on Taric
Rageblade on Karma

In short, never get Zeke's on supports unless you are bad at this game. :\
