How to play it

Dodge his axes
Dodge his Q axes: they slow you so he can stick, so kite and poke him with E from range instead of standing in them.
Q away, never in
Never Deceive into him: always Q away. His R removes the fear from your W boxes and your clone, so Q is only ever your escape.
Save Q for his R
When he ults you need Deceive up to get out: your boxes won't stop him under Ragnarok, so don't waste it before he commits.
Never Deceive into Olaf: his R strips the fear from your boxes and clone, so Q is only an escape, never an engage.

Shaco · Jungle · Patch 26.17 · Ranked Solo · Updated Sep 5, 2026

Shaco vs Olaf in Jungle lane is a hard lane on patch 26.17. The one thing to respect: dodge his axes, every Q that lands slows you into his all-in, and once he ults you can't fear him off.
