Volibear is a champ i've played since this patch and he's a good jungler and ganker. He's got great sustain and burst dmg, he's got a singed fling, aoe slow/minion fear, movement speed steroid, and good aoe damage. This guide will teach you how to play tanky volibear.

Smite, you're jungling, duh. For heal, it gives you a great heal which, when combined with passive can heal almost 40% of your health early game and a little less late game. Heal can also help you take dragon or just keep you in the jungle longer. You can substitute it for ghost for massive speed steroids or better movement in teamfights. Overall, there aren't really any other spells you'd want to take.

Explanation:

Gives cool aoe dmg in teamfights and it's great for when your even fighting 1v1 cause of the extra damage.

So for the route start at blue, then head to wolves, wraiths, golems, red, gank, golems or enemy blue if it's not taken. after golems head to wraiths, then wolves and keep clearing jungle until you have enough gold for items. I like to just farm volibear unless my team needs ganking. By mid game you should have the highest or second highest farms on your team. Volibear is a fun and good jungler so try some routes yourself, see what works.
