Olaf is best when built CDR + health.

Health synergizes with most of his kit.

Most of Olaf's damage comes from his Q+E, not auto-attacks. 40% CDR lets him spam E and throw machine-gun axes.

Full AD is bad for Olaf; he has poor AD scaling (just 1.0 on his whole kit, which is all on his Q). Plus he already gets free AD steroid, which gets better as you build health.
