An employee at Riot Games who works on champion visual updates shared some hints on Twitter that a rework is coming for the champion Olaf. While the full details aren't clear yet, most players weren't expecting this rework at all. Putting together Riot Agust's comments and some leaks, a few details have started to emerge. Here's the Olaf rework information we could find for you!

What Are the Details of the LoL Olaf Rework?

Olaf's mid-scope update looks like it's set to bring the jungler into the 2020s. Olaf is fun, but very one-dimensional, which isn't always a good thing given League of Legends' current state.

Sure, his ultimate makes him 10% bigger, but is that really what we want from him? He's a very simple champion, and it's easy for enemies to predict his moves, so it looks like Riot will need to bring his kit up to par with the current state of the game.

What Could Be Adjusted in Olaf's Kit?

We already mentioned that his ultimate makes him a bit bigger, but we could easily see Riot tweaking this in one way or another. Maybe when Olaf uses his ultimate, he'll also get a knockback effect similar to Lulu's ultimate. That would make him much more effective in fights. His Q could also be adjusted with a charge-up, similar to Pyke's hook. The longer his Q charges, the farther he could throw his axe. This could be something that affects both the gameplay and jungling.

When Will the LoL Olaf Rework Release?

Olaf would be great for winter, since he's from Freljord :) . But that's just a guess. No release date has been announced yet, so we'll need to wait to hear more from Riot to find out.
