How to Use Olaf Counter Data

Every figure on this page, including which champions beat Olaf and which ones Olaf beats, comes from live ranked Top lane matchup data. Right now Nidalee, Bel’Veth, and Naafiri are the lane matchups where Olaf wins least often in the current data set. Nidalee is the hardest of them: Olaf takes only 34.9% of its 109 recorded games. In the other direction, Olaf does well against Xin Zhao, Varus, and Jayce, so those are the safer matchups to face.

Each card displays Olaf’s win rate along with the number of games it’s based on. A matchup with tens of thousands of games deserves more trust than one with a few hundred. The Easy, Even, and Hard tags are derived from those win rates: under 48% is labeled Hard and over 52% is labeled Easy. They help with reading the numbers and are not a separate statistic. The data covers ranked games at Emerald and above in every region, runs on patch 16.13.1, and updates every 48 hours, so the figures shift as the meta does. Matchups only tell part of the story, so pair them with the current Olaf build for the best items and runes, or open the Olaf champion page for ability details and the full breakdown.
