I use this build in all of my games as Lee Sin, and it works swimmingly for me. I believe that the Goredrinker/ Conqueror build is not as good because it throws away a lot of the strengths that Lee Sin has. That build is about going into the middle of a team and staying in, extended trades, and staying healthy during that. That has never been Lee Sin's niche.
Lee Sin is a utility ganking jungler that enters and exits fights quickly, picking a target and ccing them and hopefully killing them. Lee Sin isn't an assassin like Kha'Zix or Rengar or others, but Lee Sin is able to put out lethal amounts of damage to squishy targets and then escape quickly.
However, almost any build with Lee Sin can be effective if you have good knowledge of your champion and a team that can follow you up.
I believe you are the best Lee Singa in the world. Could you say to me the way to defeat olaf? He has axe, they throw hard.
Cheers.
Olaf can be a hard matchup for Lee Sin because Olaf generally is somewhat tanky and can neutralize Dragon's Rage's knockback with his ultimate Ragnarok. This means that as the Lee Sin player you have to play around that ability. This could mean holding it for after he uses it and it wears off, or catching him unawares and kicking him before he has a chance to block the knockback. It could also mean that you ignore the Olaf in team fights, and go for someone else on the enemy team. That might mean kicking a different tank into the enemy team, or making a play on one of their damage dealers and killing them or kicking them into your team.
In early skirmishes, you want to try to dodge all of Olaf's Undertows by keeping moving, and using the shield Safeguard to block damage from his Reckless Swing because that is true damage, so it's the best to block with a shield as it doesn't get reduced by resistances. You can't outlast Olaf in any fight. Although Lee Sin has built in healing through his Iron Will, Olaf has more potential for living through a fight, because Tough It Out gives him extra healing and Life Steal based off of his missing health, and Olaf's passive Berserker Rage gives him extra attack speed based off of his missing health. For both of these reasons, you have to kill Olaf quickly, and save Resonating Strike for the execute.
In short, you have to dodge his axes, and kill him quickly. If you can't do that, play on the opposite side of the map from Olaf. When you can't do that, focus on killing the other people on the enemy team and providing shields and peeling for your carries.
How do you think lee sin would go against really tanky champs?
Lee Sin is really good in the early game against most champions that are really tanky, such as Sejuani, Amumu, Zac, Maokai, and others. He does struggle against champions that are offtanks, such as Udyr and Shyvana because they tend to itemize some damage early, and in general can outfight Lee Sin. He does struggle in big teamfights against tanky champions, because he can't do enough damage to deal with them, and can't out tank them. If Lee Sin is able to effectively counter jungle and push the tanky champs behind, that is ideal, because it will minimize the time between Lee Sin falling off for late game, and the tanks coming into full fruition for late game, which is ideal, because that leaves more time for plays where you can be doing tons of damage for fights.
You can think of it like if you have a full AD team against a team with tanks and mixed damage. The full AD team has to win early, because later in the game the tanks will be able to itemize armor and the carries will outdamage the carries on the full AD team. That problem is especially prevalent if the AD team has an ADC like Jhin or Miss Fortune that won't necessarily melt tanks as well as some alternatives.
Hopefully that was helpful, and actually answers your question. :)
His teamfights are completely centered around this. During team fights you need to always have your ultimate available. you should either be kicking the enemy's tanks away from your carries, or kicking the enemy's carries into your team so that they die immediately. While Lee Sin doesn't have a large base health or enough scaling to be effective at doing damage or taking damage during teamfights, he does a great job of allowing his teammates to do well during those fights.
On the other hand, Lee Sin has a very strong early game. Since his abilities don't scale super hard, meaning that leveling them up doesn't give him a lot of extra strength, however, this means that at the lowest level his spells are very strong. This means that when Lee Sin goes to gank in the early game the ganks are very effective, because he can outmaneuver the enemy, and out damage most enemies.
Lee Sin is also very strong in the early game because he has a relatively safe clear. When he is clearing the jungle, Safeguard and Iron Will help him not take a large amount of damage from the camps. That alongside his large base damages allows him to be pretty safe while clearing the jungle, and that let's him gank early, which we already talked about being a strong suit of his.
Hopefully this was helpful to you. In this current meta, Lee Sin isn't at his strongest, and there are junglers that will outshine him, but if you are a practiced Lee Sin, you should still be able to do better than them. If you want to see how Lee Sin could be used effectively at ganking or in teamfights, watch Foxdroplol on youtube, or vods of lcs games where they have picked Lee Sin. I would even go so far as to say to watch the end of the game that Meteos is famous for playing Lee Sin in; He did famously bad, but near the end he landed a kick that won his team the game during a teamfight.

i cant kill blue in 2lvl. who doing it?????
Without potting and with a point in e at level two, you can't do it, but if you pot you can easily. A point in e at level two is wrong, so I fixed that, and it should be easier now.
