Abilities

Riot's own text for each slot, in the order the champion learns them.

PASSIVE Berserker Rage

Olaf's Attack Speed is increased by 1% for each 1% of his Health he is missing.

1 Undertow

Olaf throws an axe into the ground at a target location, dealing damage to enemies it passes through and slowing their Movement Speed. If Olaf picks up the axe, the ability's cooldown is reduced by 4.5 seconds.

2 Vicious Strikes

Olaf's Attack Speed is increased, he gains Physical Vamp and has increased healing from all sources based on how much Health he is missing.

3 Reckless Swing

Olaf dashes to an enemy and attacks with such force that it deals true damage to his target. If the target does not die, Olaf takes true damage.

ULTIMATE Ragnarok

Olaf temporarily becomes immune to disables.
