Olaf Matchups Overview
Olaf General information
Olaf tips and tricks
Try and force a fight at level 1 to force the enemy laner to burn through their health potions early.
Use your Ultimate R frequently to force the enemy to use Summoner Spells. Your Ultimate
R has a low cooldown compared to other bruisers, so don’t be afraid to make plays.
In team fights, look to focus the frontline and keep your teammates alive. If you are fed or are strong, look to take down the enemy backline instead.
