This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Olaf.

Fighting cooperatively, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to dish out massive AD. When paired, these champs can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.
Conversely, by aligning Rek'Sai and Olaf together, you may not be giving your team enough magic damage. We recommend you include other champs on your team that neutralizes this relative disparity in this pairing's abilities.
Regardless of the skill of your Olaf ally, you need to focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
