You should add to this guide that GP is beyond extreme threat

Olaugh (1) | January 18, 2023 3:55am
GP is high skill match up . He is fine cuz even tho you cant reach him or kill him neither can he kill you. Its patience game. He is not like fiora so he just straight up destroys you or like akali where he dmgs you but you cant her, you can survive just fine, go for mana potion runes and in game potions,play safe and defensive,wait for jg and thats it. But yeah you wont get fed vs him but you dont have to , its 5v5 in the end, tricky match up but there are much worse

I wish this guide has more explanation on what to buy in late game + more matchups.
Recently, I was destroyed by Gnard due to his insane mobility I couldn't really catch him. And when I had this opportunity, he already stacked rage from 0.

Yeah , I wasnt playing lately at all , anyways I didnt put anything on late game cuz thats the least you want to go through , but I will add something just in case someone reaches late game like you. As for Gnar, thats usually free win at all stages of the game especially early/mid. I go flash ghost cuz of his mobility and that solves it pretty good so try that , even if he jumps ur R and ghost will catch up quickly trust me. Just let him push so you have more space to engage and tryna catch him

Hi , I think olaf is like a bull charging at you full speed and you can't do anything but pray to god you somehow kite him out. I started playing him top lane with a questionable build. I go the following : for mythic I find Eclipse more usefull than shieldbow (max healh damage + shield + movement speed on passive ) also like the omnivamp and lethality if you want to terrorize the squishy champs second item maw or steraks , third black clever , fourth or last item dead man's plate or force of nature . I mainly go flash and ghost because of many dash champs in the game. I really like the movement speed from the sorcery tree but also I like beeing more tanky and destroying turrets so I take demolish and I mainly run grasp , conditioning , demolish , revitalize and second tree sorcery with nimbus and celerity. Do you think this is a good build / runes ? I played a few games in plat 4 and it seems it is broken.

Olaugh (1) | May 12, 2022 2:26pm
Hi, thanks for visiting guide ,Olaf is early game and grasp is scaling rune which Olaf hates so rune doesnt make much sense, you mentioned nimbus and celerity and I thought too that is good but I tested it in practice tool and you still get way more movement speed with approach velocity , not only that, approach velocity doesnt have a cooldown which is insane and it doesnt require spell to activate so it wins heavily, we can only make argument for waterwalking rune for olaf jungle. When you play Olaf vs squishy top you should win whatever you build but when you find good players and hard picks like fiora akali vayne top then your grasp wont work cause you cant even walk up and it doeasnt do damage early and as the game goes your chances of killing her just reduces significantly , taking flash ghost on top shows me that you understand the champ and feel the pain of all olaf players lol , everyone is so mobile ,100 of dashes and ghost flash are almost a must just to follow up especially now with new R which starts with only 3s , it is really good summoner spell choice. As for the build right now Trinity may be the best option because of sheen power vs champs ,towers, minions , you just pick up axe throw e and proc sheen 3 times which is way more dmg than eclipse to all three units listed above , second or maybe the best would be immortal shieldbow , eclipse is inferior to shieldbow because shieldbow shields at 30% hp providing you time when your passive and W reaches its max potential while eclipse shield will get bursted right away and eclipse shield is 2x smaller than shieldbow, shieldbow gives lifesteal while eclipse omnivamp and since Olaf q cd got increased you rely much more now on basic attack so lifesteal gives more value than eclipse`s omnivamp , eclipse is not terrible pick but shieldbow is just superior in every aspect , Maw is good item even tho DD is broken but depends who you are against , steraks sucks right now and Im so used to building it :( , the thing is you are building shielbow botrk DD there is not a single hp item with which steraks can scale and get any/full shield value and even if you buy hp item it could only be trinity cause botrk DD too strong to leave them in shop , dead man is situationally good but you cant carry if you buy it early so again dead mans falls into late game choice just like steraks and as Olaf you want to end game early/mid. Black cleaver is completely useless now because olaf q has built in arm shred and that with movm speed which BC doesnt give anymore was mainly the reason it was build on Olaf besides good hp+ad so BC is really bad now. All those items that givs hp+ad may look fine but with Olaf its so hard to get past plat1/diamond so you need to utilize every 1% of advantage that you possibly can and thats why we should prioritize trinity botrk or shielbow botrk DD/wits end , just take a look at hp (fighter items)-its a joke, you get like 400hp and 40ad while shieldbow gives more ad ,as,lifesteal,crit... and shield up to 2x bigger than that item`s hp, literally no point in buying hp items which gives 2x less hp than freaking passive from shieldbow, I run ghost barrier and just recently saw a korean grandmaster going ghost barrier as well with exact same build path so Im not the only one that got this idea, if you saw the build its basically like warwick strategy where you go barrier spell and when you are low you press barrier to remain at low hp where you are the strongest for as long as possible . W which shields you , giving you time to heal back then shieldbow gives you another shield again providing time to heal up and then you press barrier for 3rd shield and now you just bought heck lot of time at 30% hp where your abilities reaches max potential, I hope you see the point.

Hi from a fellow Olaf main. I really liked your guide and explanation because i was trying to find effective items on him since they did these changes with mythic items and u cant get black cleaver first. i see a lot of people using goredrinker personally i dont like it and i used stridebreaker for a while, i dont like the instant healing because you lose a lot from your passive especially if u do it halph hp. i wanna try trinity now for the dueling power since i ve always liked the 1v1 power of olaf ,also my very aggresive playstyle doesnt profit from poking with q mostly i prefer some poke and then fully all in with ghost. Also lately i use ghost and flash which is really needed for olaf to catch even the most mobile champs....thats all , really good guide for me i will try out the builds you mentioned

Olaugh (1) | March 16, 2022 6:37am
Glad you read my trinity explanation cause its long , yea its tough to start with black cleaver, we used to do it so its not impossible but other mythuc items justs beats you 1v1 then :( .
I am agressive as well and be carefup with trinity, time your axes well so you spam sheen eff. As for summoners spells I feel you, Im doing flash ghost as well, especially vs range top, this and last season so hard for olaf top 😑😑...thanks for visiting my guide :)

the eviscerator would not be better for olaf? It is he who makes the best return on the purchase of this items in the whole league

Olaugh (1) | November 16, 2020 9:58am
Sorry , but I dont understand your sentence at all . What exactly you want to say ?
You meant on item executioner ? not eviscerator ( word you wrote) or what?
