Amumu vs Olaf Counter Pick

Olaf’s ultimate, Ragnarok, makes him immune to disables for as long as he keeps attacking — a direct answer to a kit built around Bandage Toss’s stun and Curse of the Sad Mummy’s AoE stun. Reckless Swing compounds the problem by dealing true damage to both Olaf and his target, which ignores Amumu’s 101 magic resist and 2,283 HP by level 18 entirely. Between the two abilities, Olaf’s kit is built to walk straight through the exact tools Amumu relies on to start a fight.

The winrate matches that read: Amumu takes this jungle clash only 43.5% of the time across 170 games on patch 16.13.1, a Hard-rated result. Olaf’s 2,668 HP at level 18 and 68 base attack damage are both higher than Amumu’s own totals, and Berserker Rage scales his attack speed and lifesteal up as his health drops, meaning he gets more dangerous the longer a skirmish runs — the opposite of what Amumu wants from a fight built around Despair’s gradual health drain. Both are rated a difficulty of 3, so the gap here is entirely kit-driven rather than mechanical. Olaf’s full abilities are listed on his champion page.
