Give Olaf a proper juggernaut ultimate

After3perma·Mar 4, 2019·1 votes·1,277 views

This current ultimate is garbage as it makes him lose tankiness. Olaf is a champion that is meant to be deadly in melee range but gets blown up even at level 6. He has one of the lowest juggernaut scaling stats in the game.

Olaf loses tankiness on ultimate while Jax gets free 90 armor and magic resist for building damage and similar items to Olaf. Yeah fucking balanced btw.

Remove the CC immunity and change it to, Olaf gains 30/40/50% tenacity. Give Olaf extra armor and magic resist when the ultimate is activated alongside the passive bonus armor and magic resist. Give Olaf bonus health whenever the ultimate is activated. Lower the bonus AD scaling from ultimate.

This suggestion may in fact be the hottest garbage I've ever seen.

So you want to remove the only reason to play Olaf.

Ok.

Ok.

its awkward that he loses his passive resistances when he ults.

at the same time it would be crazy if he kept them while cc immune.

Why not just get better base stats and not get resistances at level 6 from a rank in his ult?

As an Olaf main, it sickens me to the n’th degree. He already has a lot of damage, half of it true damage, and a lot of survivability due to his high health and lifesteal. He wouldn’t be a Berserker without it.

Also, Olaf laughs at Jax’s resistances with his true damage.

I could see if he gained 40 / 65 / 90% Tenacity while ulting but even a hypothetical 100% would mean knock ups etc would have full effect and stuns would interrupt any orders despite walking out of them.
Losing defenses he got for free means he still has to buy defenses, especially HP. It's fine, changing it either way breaks the champion.

Old Taric lost a load of free armor on his E but they built an entire new kit around the removal of that self-debuff (and an OP steroid ultimate)

That would ruin the whole point of him being a berserker. Berserkers are known for completely ignoring defense to do as much damage as they possibly can which fits Olaf's ult and passive perfectly.

Excuse me?

You want to replace Olaf's ult for tenacity? Are you trolling or did you just get clapped by an Olaf? If anything Olaf's ult is one of the most unique ones in the game. He should get base armor/mr increase IMO he is squishy AF early on for a juggernaut. But it has nothing to do with his ult. If you build him right with enough LS and health, he IS un-fucking-stoppable.

ps. I checked your history.... this :

item 3748 item 3143 item 3053 is not how you build Olaf.

Try this: item 3071 item 3080 item 3022 item 3083 item 3812 item 3742

item 3078 item 3072 item 3022 item 3800 item 3813 item 3046

or tanky:

item 3071 item 3231 item 3065 item 3800 item 3813 item 3742

This is an old account where i tried out different builds.

I always build BC Steraks Gage but I still die quickly compared to Darius or Garen.

I didnt get clapped by an Olaf. I am an Olaf main but he is too weak atm.

His old ult use to give him free armor pen and his W used to have health scaling. They reworked him after he 1v2 killed an underleveled Karthus and MF (both were pretty much in his face the whole time) in pro play. He used to be one of THE late game bruisers back in the day.
