Olaf often has a much larger longest kill spree than his opponent does. On average, Olaf receives more damage than Karma. This is usually reflective of differing health capacities; however, it can also show that the champion with higher HP has less agility and thus is not able to flee from further damage when engaged or poked.
Olaf usually takes a similar number of minion kills than Karma. Champions who on average don't get many minion kills typically do not need much CS to be useful. They are capable of scaling fully off their abilities alone. Yet, champs with plenty of minion kills, such as hyper-carries, typically have to have a lot of gold to be useful. In either situation, try to outperform the values displayed here to do well.
