Regarding Naut and Sej, for 1) Nautilus' shield scales off of effective health (armor/MR increases it's effect as well) not just straight HP. 2) Sejuani is getting massive fixes, so that doesn't really count.

Instead of completely removing the passive ultimate ARpen they should have just reduced it - by half, as Codekey mentioned, seems ideal.

Dodging the unnecessary teenage angst comments, I believe in the end you are missing the whole purpose of this thread. You picked apart the specific things he got nerfed with without addressing the fact that I said it's the combination of nerfing all these variables that effectively destroys Olaf.

Huge nerf, don't expect to see much olaf for a long time.

Considering he is currently sporting a 47% win rate which is actually high for him, these gargantuan nerfs will definitely make it under 40% win rate.

biggest blow is the nerf to his q, for a champ without a gapcloser, that spammable slow was the only thing that lets him stick on targets,

It depends on the overall kit, but yeah I agree. Darius is a whole other topic, however.

I just can't believe they nerfed so many things to Olaf's kit all at once. This.. just doesn't make sense from a balance perspective. How can you get a genuine observation on a change if you change multiple variables all at once? Use the scientific method plox.

No. It doesn't make sense at all. Why would they want to make sense balancing things properly? So you're telling me they SHOULDN'T do knee jerk nerf reactions to tournament players that do well??????

Mind. Blow--*BOOM*

He will be fine after the nerfs. Everyone stop freaking out. He is still going to do massive damage when you build CDR and pop ghost then eat your carries.

I disagree. The fact they hit everything in his kit like that is excessive.

Olaf still pumps out true damage and is still immune to CC.

not sure what all the nerf QQ is about, really.
