Olaf's suddenly become good because he does well against just about all the current top tier characters (except Ezreal, Warwick, to some degree Garen) and fits nicely into the metagame.
He's also one of the fastest junglers out there, but one of the less safe (no escape, about 1/3 health constantly). Seriously, you can wipe the jungle and bluepill and still have to sit around for things to respawn.

Unfortunately RIOT will probably nerf Olaf before attending to the real problem T_T
In the meantime, I'll continue to take advantage of playing a character that's actually viable.

They are only nerfing people that are permabans. You can't make someone better until you make the OP champions less powerful.

jungle W E W Q then E > R > W > Q
i build lots and lots of heart of Golds and some fancy boots then go from there
don't need a mallet if you hog the red buff
atmas is nice eventually but most of your damage output is from E spam

is it just me, or does suppression sound like a really awful gimmick that will just force people to run merc treads and banshees (even more so than they do now)?

too bad since OXICLEAN is the proest kennen the world has ever known. Sam the Ham is a distant second. you gotta be really amazing to be known as the "most ______ in the server". for instance, HotshotGG is the best nidalee in the server because he said so. LoCicero is the best pantheon in the server since Maknoon started liking airplanes. Caller is the bravest player in the server (have you seen him play? guy has no sense of fear).


does OXICLEAN run ENERGY RUNES!?!?

I didn't run a full jungle with Olaf, but my recollection is that with golem spamming Q is more efficient than E, since you have infinite mana and health is a luxury. It also makes you a more dangerous ganker. So, that said, I'd probably go either WQWQQR or WQWEER to open for jungle.

you can do Q or W on golem to open up...

E I take at 4, and then max it asap, you have to get E early cause you are pretty dependent on it imo

I ran Olaf as an initiating tank, and I didn't take E until level 13. Level 5 W + Sunfire + Negatron + L2 boots = hard to kill and hits hard enough to be focused. E isn't a bad skill, but it's not a requirement to have success.

depends who you're against, if you're against a tank team, E is VERY helpful since its true damage(ignores resists)

LOL really?

Get one point at level 4. It's your only slow. Use it.

So so funny. Letting poppy snowball and talking smack because I didn't hit hard enough at the time (atleast until I got my BF sword). Anivia's 3000 hp doesn't do much when I have ~300 damage and trinity force, ulting her means one combo is almost enough to kill her (need a few more Q to kill her egg). Rammus put his taunt and stun into my shield, then anivia rages that I killed her and rammus does nothing.

I used to get brutalizer, but I definately don't need it, just trinity force and stack movement speed and AD.

Ok here's how I do Olaf.
First, you take golem faster with Q. Go QWQWQR, then MAX E IMMEDIATELY. W is good for staying power, but you're mostly ganking or teamfighting around now. E is devastating, esp. with golem. You always want golem.
I open cloth+4pots, which gets me lizard and level 4 double buff gank after I bluepill.
I build razor, farm jungle until a gank opportunity presents itself, and do this until teamfights start.
I usually go cloth boots (first b) razor swifties.

Now the decision on what next. Ask yourself (in order of priority):
Is all/most of their damage one type?
YES: Buy Chainmail/Negatron as appropriate. Sometimes even 2.
Am I having troubles surviving teamfights?
YES: Buy Chainmail/Negatron/Giant'sBelt as you see fit.
Are enemies getting away from me in teamfights? Would a slow help?
YES: Build towards Mallet (belt first, then phage)
Do I just want to farm jungle? Is laning lasting for a while but ganking isn't what I want to do?
YES: Build a Lantern.
Am I like 11-0 and do my enemies suck? Do I have NO FEAR OF DEATH and want to KILL THINGS FASTER?
YES: Infinity edge. Laugh.

I use 21/0/9 masteries for stupid DPS output with no items, but the other setup I recommend is 1/14/15. Runes are CDR glyphs, ArPen marks, hp/l seals, and hp quints. I want to change them, though, to ms quints and armor seals. Maybe AS marks or something.

See, Q tears up jungle because it's like 120 damage on a .5 sec cooldown with golem, and a 3 sec cooldown without. It also tears up people if you can chase them/land it consistently.
W heals you a little more with each attack, big deal.
E is the important one, but you need a little health before you can start really spamming it IMO.

Do you get Q do gank, or do you just ghost in? And is E really that good? It seems like you do almost half the damage to yourself.

It seems like starks is a great item on him. Do you guys not get it because he needs to be tanky?

@Tooplark Whats the 1/14/15 masteries you get? 1 in smite, 3 in magic resist, 3 in armor, 4 dodge, 1 nimbleness, 3 block damage, 1 in ghost, 3 in (the third one, i forgot what it does xD), 4 in exp, 2 in mana regen, 2 in buff, 3 in movespeed? Sorry I don't have the exact names...
Whaaaa?

The important ones are speed, experience, ghost, smite, buff duration and nimbleness. The rest don't make much of a difference. Health is nice too.
