Stats
Lore
An unstoppable force of destruction, the axe-wielding Olaf wants nothing but to die in glorious combat. Hailing from the brutal Freljordian peninsula of Lokfar, he once received a prophecy foretelling his peaceful passing—a coward's fate, and a great insult among his people. Seeking death, and fueled by rage, he rampaged across the land, slaughtering scores of great warriors and legendary beasts in search of any opponent who could stop him. Now a brutal enforcer for the Winter's Claw, he seeks his end in the great wars to come.
Abilities
Olaf gains Attack Speed based on his missing Health.
Olaf throws an axe into the ground at a target location, dealing damage to enemies it passes through and slowing their Move Speed. If Olaf picks up the axe, the ability's cooldown is reduced by 4.5 seconds.
Olaf's Attack Speed is increased, he gains Life Steal and has increased healing from all sources based on how much Health he is missing.
Olaf attacks with such force that it deals true damage to his target and himself, refunding the Health cost if he destroys the target.
Olaf temporarily becomes immune to disables.
