Naafiri vs Olaf Counter Pick
Matchup Summary
What the Data Means
Ragnarok makes Olaf immune to disables for as long as he keeps attacking, which is his standard answer to being kited by crowd control. Naafiri brings almost none: Darkin Daggers apply bleed, Eviscerate is a dash with area damage, and Hounds’ Pursuit is another dash. The ultimate that usually decides his fights is spent on a problem this opponent does not create, and across 258 games on patch 16.13.1 Naafiri takes 58.9%. The sample is modest, so it reads as a firm lean rather than a settled figure.
Olaf owns the heavier stat line — 645 health rising to 2,668, 68 base attack damage, 350 move speed against 340 — and Reckless Swing deals true damage, ignoring the 99.4 armor she reaches at level 18 as thoroughly as it ignores anything she buys. Berserker Rage turns his own missing health into attack speed and life steal, so a long clash trends his way, and Tough It Out adds attack speed with a shield whenever he wants one.
The counter is arithmetic. Olaf restores health through life steal on one target at a time while We Are More gives Naafiri several attackers, and The Call of the Pack grants untargetability long enough to reset a skirmish that Undertow, with its armor reduction and slow, was supposed to lock down.
