Behold the return...

[quote=C4 Lasty]His ratios are pitiful, AS for the clear buff. I'll try AD but I don't think it'll be optimal. He needs MS quints unfortunately.[/quote]

[quote=Thalia Kael][quote=Darcurse] Now bring back(resp. make him playable in current meta) Tryn as well and I'm set. [/quote] I'm pretty sure Trynd is top tier in SoloQ atm[/quote]

[/quote] i totally forgot you can't axe-spam to instaclear camps anymore, sorry... But all the "Popular" jungle items seem to be quite an awesome mix on him, ez 40% cdr on 3 items into tri-force or randy mabe? Or is cdr even worth it on new olaf? I just remember playing him back then rushing 40% cdr instakilling stuff - i think that's back when you played top-lane still though.[/quote]

[quote=C4 Lasty]Hah yeah top lane was my jam for the majority of my career. Wasn't enjoying my impact on early-mid so I switched to jungle. Picking up the axe for the clear wasn't too bad. I went Spirit stone - boots - dorans blade - Phage - Ancient Golem - Ninja Tabi - Spirit Visage - Randuins. Not too bad of a build. I'll play around with it some more. I think hes heavily outclassed by a lot of junglers but who knows.[/quote]

[quote=Pølsemanden]Just tried it, his clear is really good, you shouldn't go double buff smiteless imo, just smite blue early and farm the jungle and rush your levels.[/quote]

[quote=Jovy]everyone's playing it now and being awful :[[/quote]

[quote=C4 Lasty]Polse I'm sorry but you're very wrong. You should always start the buff your bot lane is closest to and then go to the other buff and take it down with smite. Because of the jungle changes in 3.8 you need to secure both buffs as fast as possible.[/quote]

[quote=Pølsemanden]It's not like you can put a lot of pressure early with a red-buff on olaf against most enemies anyways - and noone in their right mind would dare invade an olaf :o got level 5 at 4:40 by rushing levels btw (no leash) Pretty sure you might be underestimating it cuz you didn't play jungle-laf before, or else i'm overestimating it cuz i did edit: and not a lot of champions solo-invade anymore anyways. Don't be so meta now <.< Tried it again, 4:37 level 5 700-something gold.[/quote]

[quote=C4 Lasty]Buffs are worth 275 XP feel free to farm once you have dubs you don't have to gank if you don't want. You absolutely have to secure both buffs as fast as possible. If you stop for wraiths/wolves you'll lose a buff and be really behind. Go red-blue or blue-red then farm wraiths wolves etc.[/quote]

[quote=Scott Azrael]Eh, I'm just in Silver and I agree with Lasty. If I don't secure both buffs, then I lose one. Same goes to the enemy jungle. If I see they ganked a lane at lvl 2, I go get whatever buff they didn't secure. It's the easiest way to get ahead in jungle. I played a game last night in ranked where the other team had an [[Olaf]] top and he got destroyed by a bruiser [[Nidalee]]. IDK, if it was just the guy was that bad or he tried playing a champ he didn't know or if [[Olaf]]'s early game is just that weak. It's a similar result to every game I have seen from streamers with [[Olaf]] in it. He sucks early in laning phase and then once he is behind, he starts to gain power around lvl 8-9 but he is just too far behind at that point. From what I have seen, he almost seems like he has become like [[Nasus]] where you just need to farm safely until you can destroy when you outscale.[/quote]
