Honestly was curious if anyone thinks Glacial Augment would be ok on him? Though you would miss out on a lot of damage/tankyness but would be pretty fun to test out some time. These are the viable items on Olaf that work with the rune item 3143 item 3800 though you might be ok with item 3153 as well. I'm sure Grasp of the Undying is still the best choice but could be fun to test out Glacial Augment (or maybe Press the Attack).

Aery olaf top lane has insane cheese potential, other than that he is kind of meh.

Try this rune page : http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/featured/preseason-update/8300-8351?build=41101013

You can swap Magical Footwear for Future's Market if you want, but given the rest of the chosen runes it wouldn't hurt in order to save 300/350 gold early.

Glacial Augment gives you a better slow when you are in their face and Approach Velocity gives you that little bit extra movement speed when you land an Axe to catch up to them before your Q slow wears off to apply the Keystone slow.

For anyone wondering why Glacial Augement, it scales 40%-50% for melee champions while Olaf's Q is 29 / 33 / 37 / 41 / 45% making Glacial Augment stronger early game and comes out stronger later.
