After patch 1.06, Greataxes were buffed making an OP strength build that wrecks anything in Elden Ring with powerful attacks and critical hits. Don't miss this OP strength build after Patch 1.06 with Greataxes.
OP Patch 1.06 Greataxe Buff
Increased the attack speed of Great Axes and reduced the time it takes for rolling to become possible after an attack. (Jump attack, dual wield attack and attacks while mounted not included)
OP Strength Patch 1.06 - How to play
The first hit can be a running attack or an attack with the lion's claw ash of war, then you need to continue your successive attack to be able to break their stance and perform a critical hit by continuing to do consecutive line clause attacks or combination of normal attacks, and if you roll to mid-distance or the enemy gets away perform another lion's claw again to regain that close from a distance, and when you knock the enemy perform the critical hit and after that get close to the enemy and do an r2 charge strong attack to deal more damage, so just rinse and repeat this, for normal enemies you may end up killing them after one or two or three hits, for challenging your boss fights you may want to buff prior with your incantations and your physick flask.

OP Strength Build After Patch 1.06 – Final Thoughts
With patch 1.6, it gave a well-deserved buff to the underperforming great access, now they're fast making you do more damage at the end, and able to roll out after an attack much quicker which results in more survivability in fights, this pair with a tank build like they will show you will withstand a lot of damage with no staggering whatsoever when getting hit, so you will connect every time while playing aggressively to get knocked down your enemies for that sweet critical hit, that's what we liked about the executioner's greataxe, longest reach, and highest critical damage of all great axes, so in short, this build is really OP now and will give players a possibility of playing with different types of grade axes, so we recommended 100 percent this build for you.
