Titanic Hydra is going to put Olaf back in the meta

Olaf has always struggled with getting onto specific squishy targets that sit in the backline, and this weakness is even more pronounced when his significant strengths are single-target.

Titanic Hydra is going to give him a lot strength for building tanky (so he'll be alive longer to dish out more damage), gives him ranged damage on auto attacks when he can't reach the enemy backline (so he is still a threat to them when he hasn't reached them), and the item just has good synergy with his built-in Attack Speed steroids.

I can see BORK, Titanic Hydra, Mallet, Randuins/Warmogs being a strong and standard build for Olaf after Titanic Hydra is released.

Be on the lookout

Let's hope not.

Have you not met Reignover? Olaf's already back in the meta, he's just not Azir/Elise-level dominant.

Yeah. He's freaking scary on it.

Let me explain you something: Olaf is not an assassin. His job isn't to go after squishies, but rather deal with the frontline/peel for your carries.
