How to Play This Matchup
Survive to Scale
Olaf will try to bully you early. Give up CS if needed  your job is to not die. Ryze outscales hard after 2 items. Play for farm, not fights.
Mixed Resistances
Ryze deals AP damage while Olaf deals AD. Build resistances accordingly  don't stack the wrong type.
Range Advantage
Ryze has range advantage. Olaf should look for short trades when Ryze uses abilities on the wave. Freeze near your tower and wait for jungle help or an all-in window.
Exploit Ryze's Weakness
Ryze's main weakness: Short range, weak early, needs stacking time. Play around this to maximize your advantage.
Ryze Win Condition
EQ combo spam, R team teleport, scale into DPS mage
Olaf Win Condition
Run people down with R CC immune, lifesteal at low HP
