Additional Olaf Build Insights

LoL Olaf players could find him to be a challenging champion to build out properly. You will notice that his build changes when he is playing against either generic or specialized team comps, showing you shouldn't choose the same Olaf build every single game of League of Legends

The most essential items to use in your champion's build are: Trinity Force, Sterak's Gage, and Ravenous Hydra. Players who added these pieces in their kits had a better win rate than players who went for other Olaf builds.

In recent games, he won the largest fraction of his matches when built with these runes.
