Olaf Jungle, patch 16.11. Below you'll find Olaf's build, runes, toughest counters, strongest duos, and win conditions, every number measured from current-patch Emerald+ ranked games.
Olaf is an AD juggernaut in the jungle, and on patch 16.11 they grade out as a strong pick — a 52.3% win rate, 0.3% pick rate, 3,815 ranked games sampled. On the power curve, Olaf is front-loaded: at peak strength early and falling off the longer the game runs, so the win condition is to convert early pressure into objectives and leads before the 25-minute mark.
How Olaf wins: splitpushing a side lane and forcing the enemy to answer it. The kit grades 7/10 split-push. Olaf grades low on siege and mobility (3/10, 3/10), so don't take fights that turn on those dimensions.
The most-played core build is Stridebreaker, Experimental Hexplate, Death's Dance, which holds a 53.4% win rate across 208 games this patch. Set the enemy team at the top of the page to see how the path shifts against that comp.
The matchup to respect is Kai'Sa, where Olaf sits at just 44.4%, the lane swings the other way into Jhin (56.6%), and on the team side, Olaf gains the most from a Gangplank (+9.2% pair win rate).
