| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Olaf | Olaf wins Level 1 with Q slow and Berserker Rage attack speed dominating point-blank autos. |
| Level 2 | Olaf | Olaf stays ahead at Level 2 as his rage-scaling DPS out-trades Sett before E is online. |
| Level 3 | Sett | Sett takes over at Level 3 once E-Facebreaker pins Olaf for a Q-Haymaker. |
| Levels 4-5 | Sett | Sett keeps the edge at Levels 4-5 as Grit sustain outlasts his axe-refresh trades. |
| Level 6 | Olaf | Olaf reclaims Level 6 because R Ragnarok makes him CC-immune, negating Sett's displacement. |
| First item | Sett | Sett re-takes first item as Haymaker true damage and Grit out-brawl his normalized rage. |
| Two+ items | Sett | Sett holds the 2+ item lead since he out-sustains Olaf's single-target DPS and out-utilities him with R. |
Olaf owns the first two levels: his Q Undertow slow plus Berserker Rage attack speed lets him win point-blank auto trades, and picking his axe back up refreshes it. Don't stand in the axe, farm at range of his slow, and avoid committing to a brawl before your E comes online.
