I actually understand why riot balances champions like aatrox/olaf etc. to make them semi UP

Its is because their kit is inherently toxic. If olaf had better ratios he would be absolutely busted into oblivion. Aatrox is a drain tank ( i believe that is the right terminology) It isn't healthy game play and thats why they have been semi UP

I feel like the arguments against drain tanks don't really apply with how much the game has evolved.

Olaf isn't underpowered though?

He's got a strong early-mid and is effectively a hypercarry.

He's not even that hard to play. Try him out.

The only reason he's 'weak' atm is because you need a lot of HP and armor, and at least 1 MR item, to not get wrecked in fights before you can do anything.

item 3071 item 3748 item 3065 item 3742 item 3009 and being accurate with axes are necessary to succeed on him, but without tabi nobody can tank ADCs effectively this season, and if you're in the jungle, you don't have room for another armor item so you don't get melted either way.

In addition, you have to have very good game sense, because you are definitely taking summoner 6 instead of summoner 4 .
