Just picked up Olaf in Wild Rift and looking for a few pointers? Read on for our guide on the Berserker and you'll be a monster in the jungle in no time at all.
Runes
Olaf is a bruiser that has the ability to stay right in the heart of battle for a relatively long time. Olaf's kit lets him quickly build on Conqueror stacks. Weakness is a great choice for Olaf since you rarely attack a target without them being repeated slowed by Undertow.
In blue and green, the Hunter set will let you build up vital stats after successful ganks. By killing enemies, you'll build up Cooldown Resistance, Max HP, and tenacity, making you an threat to be reckoned with in the late game.
Skills
Here is the optimal skill order for Olaf. Max out his abilities as outlined in the graphic below, making sure to rank up your ultimate whenever you have the opportunity.
Note: Olaf has a very specific spell order when starting out in the jungle. Put as many points as you can into Undertow until you reach Level 4. You should only ever learn Vicious Strikes at Level 4, never before.

Main Items
The items you buy will vary heavily from game to game depending on the composition of the enemy team. We've put together a list of the best items for Olaf, ranked by their effectiveness. Items in bold are essential purchases that you'll pick up in the vast majority of your games on this champion.
Tips and Tricks
- Olaf has incredible sustain when at death's door, meaning that you should never give up hope in sticky situations. If you're on the brink of death, try to land as many auto-attacks as possible.
- Olaf's ultimate, Ragnarok, not only cancels the effects of any CC currently affecting Olaf, but also makes him immune from any future CC for a brief period of time.
