Key Insights

  • If Volibear is hard-CC'd during
    Q
    , it ends prematurely and resets its cooldown.
  • Q
    resets Volibear's auto attack.
  • R
    also damages and temporarily disables turrets.
  • W
    applies on-hit effects, including
    P
    .
  • W
    applies Wounded to its target. If cast on a Wounded enemy, it deals 50% increased damage and heals him based on his missing HP. This healing is halved vs. minions.

Strengths

  • Excels at extended trades/fights and setting up turret dives.
  • Excels with items that enhance his tankiness, damage output, and sustain.
  • E
    's cast animation can be hidden by attacking or using other abilities.
  • Q
    's stun is long enough to land
    E
    /
    R
    .

Weaknesses

  • Can be kited very easily by mobile champions or ones who outrange him.
  • Needs a lead to stay ahead, and falls off it he doesn't get one.
  • Needs to cast
    W
    at least twice to have successful trades and fights.
  • R
    is telegraphed and slow.
