noone else finds it bad so i think you are the problem

Hey thanks for liking my guide :) You could very easily avoid raptors and it hardly change the game yes, however, Raptors is one of the easiest and fastest for Olaf to clear, and I think if you spend not even 5 minutes in a practice tool you'll figure out how to clear them without even losing HP. Watch my clearing video in my guide, you'' see that I literally gain HP from taking them, so as long as you kite them and use your Q you'll be fine.

However, If you would just rather avoid them that's fine, it would mean that you will be earlier to the scuttle crab which will give you some time to ward or look for a gank. If you don't want to full clear there are also 3 camp clears that avoid raptors that get you a quick level 3 for a gank which you could find helpful.

In conclusion, Yes you can skip raptors just make sure you are doing something productive with the time you would have spent doing the raptors. If you have any more questions about Olaf or Jungle in general I am here to help :)

Glad to hear my guide helped :) I used to max W second on Olaf and I liked it alot, but I found that the E true damage was just more useful to me, because true damage is just OP. However, if you prefer to do W second then I would suggest you keep doing it because they're both very good to max 2nd.

Olaf's late game is one of the worst in the game, so no matter what you do you'll probably be useless. At that point in the game it's down to your teammates to win you the game so I will just play frontline for the team or maybe try to peel the enemies off of the ADC in teamfights.

I never really split-push with Olaf because in the late game he will lose to pretty much any good side laner on the other team. However, if you are fed and feel like you could 1v1 their sidelaner then I would recommend splitting to relieve some pressure off of your team or even kill your opponent and continue to pressure the enemies by pushing.

Late game Olaf is just about doing what you have to do in order to allow your ADC/Carry to get damage off without getting destroyed, and what you have to do will probably be different in each game, depending on the enemy team and how strong you are.

My pleasure, thank you for reading it and I hope it helped :)

I don't think tiamat is ever needed on Olaf because his axes will give you all the AoE you need to clear your camps. However, it is viable when building a more AD heavy Olaf as it builds into Ravenous Hydra which is a good AD option for him and provides you with a little more AoE which isn't necessary but is always nice.

I personally have never built it because if I've needed anti-heal i'll get a Bramble Vest however if you are super fed and going a more damage based build then I think executioner's calling is viable.
