Olaf built as melee carry would get blown up the instant he tried to do his job, CC immunity or not. All other melee carries have a way to deal with heavy focus-fire but Olaf has nothing like that. He's very much like Nocturne, as it were.

I would guess he's probably still best built tanky, but with a few more offensive items here and there. SmashGizmo did want to overall nerf full tank Olaf as it was a large part of why he was so hard to balance, but he also said he wanted to reward offensive itemization on Olaf a little more.
