How to play it

Dodge his Q
Undertow is his engage: one axe slows you into a right-click death, so sidestep every Q.
Blow him up fast
You can't lock him down with CC, so burst him quickly: let your team poke him down first, then commit.
Wait out his shield
Don't burn your damaging abilities on him while his W shield is up.
Never re-engage Olaf while his ultimate is active: Ragnarok makes him CC-immune, so wait it out first.
