Olaf aims to pressure Urgot early and deny him a passive, controlled lane to prevent his scaling power.
This is a snowball matchup where Olaf must leverage early agency and lane pressure to force extended fights and avoid letting Urgot reach mid-game execute power.
Trading pattern
Start trades by landing (Q) to slow Urgot and pick up the axe to keep pressure high.
Use (R) to ignore Urgot's crowd control and commit to extended fights only when you can continue hitting him.
Punish Urgot's missed (E) flips by aggressively chasing with repeated (Q) and (W) shields to sustain damage.
Danger windows
Be cautious when (E) is up and ready to flip, as it punishes premature engages.
Avoid extended fights after your (R) ends since you lose crowd control immunity and can be kited.
Watch for (R) execute window on low-health targets to prevent being finished off unexpectedly.
Early game
Use early levels to land (Q) axes and force trades before Urgot can safely use (E) to punish engages.
Prioritize picking up (Q) axes to maintain chase and pressure Urgot's limited mobility.
Avoid walking into (E) range without (Q) ready, as it punishes committed engages harshly.
Power spikes
At level 6, use (R) to negate (E) crowd control and force straight-line all-ins when he cannot disengage.
After your first fighter item, pressure Urgot in side-lane duels to exploit his low mobility and force mistakes.
Respect Urgot's level 6 (R) execute threat by avoiding low-health trades and dodging his execute projectile.
Win conditions
Win by landing repeated (Q) slows, forcing extended fights where your (W) sustain and (E) true damage outvalue Urgot.
Use (R) to ignore Urgot's crowd control and commit to all-ins when he cannot kite effectively.
Deny Urgot a calm lane to scale by pressuring side lanes and forcing fights before his execute threat becomes overwhelming.
