Skin Idea: Olaf of the East.

aka. Ronin Olaf, Rolaf

A popular story arc is a Westerner going East and learning the way of the Samurai. There have been some great Samurai/Ronin berserker types portrayed over the years. I think Olaf would be amazing in this role. Can you imagine how awesome he would be with a katana in each hand with tattered old samurai armor? Most of his skins are recolors or pretty low amount of change. I would love to see some creativity go into this one. His emotes could portray his inner battle between focus and rage.

If you could somehow combine these 2 with an Olaf feel. I think they capture some of the personality that the skin would need:

Great idea, but Olaf will probably first need a VU :) along with champions like Udyr he has pretty old and blocky muscle texture. I'll be looking forward to a VU for both of them.

No idea when Olaf's VU is planned, but seems like this would be a VU with low risk and high reward, hope they'll have some time soon on their agenda to take care of him :)

Olaf is based around Vikings/Barbarians, he uses an Axe. It would probably suit someone like Tryndamere more. Would be interesting to see nonetheless.

I think that instead of katanas he should use kamas (basically what akali has). They could be redone a little thicker and more olaf-y. but the idea of the skin is super awesome.
