Olaf can combine Berserker Rage, Vicious Strikes, and Ragnarok at low life to become deceptively strong.
The bonus healing granted by Vicious Strikes amplifies your Life Steal from all sources as well as heals from allies.
While ganking, consider aiming Dredge Line at nearby terrain and following it up with Riptide for a higher hit rate.
Riptide has a delayed blast timing on activation - you can use this while running away or when enemies are incoming to serve as a deterrent.
The Olaf Nautilus synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Nautilus, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.
Overall, Olaf sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Nautilus. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Nautilus helps Olaf perform poorer in competitive LoL games. Yet, the small difference shows that this performance change is not very impactful.
When Olaf is an ally to Nautilus, he observes a little decrease in his total damage dealt. This difference could demonstrate that Nautilus does not help cover for him to dish out more damage or that his support also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Olaf is played alongside Nautilus on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Nautilus.
Additionally, when Olaf plays with Nautilus on the same team, he usually receives a little less damage than when he plays alone. Taking not as much damage could mean that Nautilus does a decent job of covering Olaf during teamfights.
There is no ideal companion for Olaf that will 100% of the time be his top ally. Yet, Nautilus is a below average teammate for Olaf. By locking into the same side as Olaf, he lowers their win rate by -1.1% to 47.9%. This demonstrates that there is a bad bond between Olaf and Nautilus that results in them performing worse together than without each other.
Nautilus has a greater difficulty than Olaf. That means you must be careful when lining up Nautilus allies to fight alongside, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to be able to play well with you.
Working cooperatively, Olaf players should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to dish out massive AD. Combined, these champions can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.
In contrast, by grouping Olaf and Nautilus together, you probably will not be granting your side a great deal of magical damage output. Make sure to pick other champs on your team that nullifies this gap in this pairing's playstyle.
Regardless of the ability of your Nautilus ally, you should focus on maximizing your income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well anyway.
