riot's answer to people asking to buff olaf:

Do you forsee any Olaf buffs since the last set of nerfs hit him hard? ]

"Olaf's strengths tends to be competitively oriented. He's also a simpler character archetype which, oddly enough, means you need a high degree of mastery over every other aspect of the game to take advantage of his strengths.

In short, yeah - we'd want to make Olaf better - but with his current kit design, he tends to be a very volatile force in high tier play. Essentially, Olaf's power is too inacessible and often only good against players who are very skilled - and thus any changes to Olaf either has to be reorienting his power or making his power more relevant to a wider range of opponents."
