Based on the Warlords rework, I wonder what would be better on Olaf.

Warlords Bloodlust or Fervor of Battle?

Tough question, and not just on Olaf. I really like that the decision now is going to be between high sustain and high damage, instead of between medium sustain and ok-ish damage and high damage. Really drives home the point of choosing your playstyle.

I'd wager that Warlord's Bloodlust will be better on builds (independent of champion) that focus more on AD as your offensive stat and less on AS, with the reverse being true for Fervor.

So more useful for AD casters like Pantheon?

AD casters are always a difficult question. I mean, people usually don't like to purchase Lifesteal on them, considering it a "wasted" stat - which is only truly wasted if they play an AD caster like an AP caster, only using their abilities and never their autos. That is not what an AD caster is, and they are not balanced around only dealing damage with abilities, either.

I'd still think that you'd go 18 in Cunning on AD casters, with Thunderlord's/Stormraider's being the Keystones of choice.

Fervor. It just Seems it would scale better at all points with the existing attack speed and lifesteal buffs in his kit.

I could be wrong though, we'll have to wait for the pros to figure it out.

Glad I'm not the only who saw that and immediately thought "Olaf".
