Key takeaways

  • Tryndamere is favored in this matchup: Olaf wins 38.4% of 99 games, and the whole 95% range (29.4–48.2%) is on the same side of 50%.
  • That is 10.2 points worse for Olaf than both champions' overall Top win rates predict (48.6%), so the matchup itself works against this pick.
  • Tryndamere usually wins the lane: 612 gold ahead of Olaf at 15 minutes on average (67 games with a 15-minute snapshot).
  • Olaf players pick Plated Steelcaps far more often against Tryndamere: 66.3% of their other Top games, 95.6% here.
How we calculate this

Games: ranked Solo/Duo and Flex games on the North America server from the patch shown. Remakes (games under 5 minutes) are excluded.

A game only counts when Olaf and Tryndamere played the same position on opposite teams, so roaming, lane swaps within a team or a champion merely being in the same game never count as this matchup.

The 95% range is a Wilson score interval. Confidence comes from how wide that range is: within ±3 points is very high, ±5 high, ±8 moderate, anything wider low. Below 20 games a matchup is not classified at all.

Expected win rate combines both champions’ win rates in this lane (same games and filters) with the log5 formula: E = A(1−B) / (A(1−B) + B(1−A)). Matchup effect = observed − expected.

"What changes" compares Olaf's choices in this matchup with the same champion's other games in the same lane, and lists a change only when it is at least 3 points and statistically significant (two-proportion z-test, |z| ≥ 2, 20+ games).

Results are not split by rank: the sample per rank is too small for honest per-rank matchup numbers.

Best Olaf Build vs Tryndamere

Usual Olaf build (Top)

62.6% win rate · 131 games

Against Tryndamere

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 9 of 35 Olaf games against Tryndamere carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Olaf's standard build instead.

  • Olaf usually completes Stridebreaker first, at 13.7 min (median of 31 games).
  • Tryndamere usually completes Ravenous Hydra first, at 13.0 min (median of 40 games).
  • Skill priority: Q > E > W — the same as usual.

Builds are ranked by the lower edge of their win rate range, not the raw win rate, so a build seen in a handful of wins never outranks a proven one.
