i play olaf alot since very long and philostone is probably the best item ever to keep him sustained and in lane.

the more you farm, the earlier you hit your personal lategame.

you are hard to force out due to W+Q from afar, getting mana back from philo to do it whenever necessary.

i usually get boots + pots, into philo. if enemy has strong harass or is ahead due ot ganks => crystal pots.

get wriggles + upgrade boots to whatever u need.

get phage (possible be4 wriggle, depending on who u play against).

philo can be sold after netting nice gold, or upgraded to meleisas miracle to gain the bonus for the rest of the match without having to have manaissues.

depending if im ahead or not i either normally get my build together, or get the 2gp5 item from atmas, if its an easy-to-farm-lane.

my endbuild looks like this:

boots, wriggles, frosten mallet, warmogs, atmas impaler, maw of malmortius.

had many and very good results with this, and you are hard to counter.

if you face a teemo, get shurelia, as, together with ur ulti and good thrown/catched axes, can net you an easy kill on him whenever your ult+shurelia are up.
