his passive is like a free heal bait whenever its up

I've seen so many people lose the lane against Volibear just cause they underestimate or forget about his passive


I'm guilty of this. However, once you've died tower diving him once in a game, if you have any sense you won't do it a second time. Other than that I think Volibear is mostly situational. I haven't seen many good ones out there and usually the ones on my team end up being a waste of space. Granted I'm only level 12ish right now. To me, Volibear is the AD equivalent of Singed and unless farmed, fed, and knows the role well, is a disaster ex: throwing people in the wrong direction, saving enemies, etc.

Volibear and Singed are really nothing alike, apart from them sharing the "toss/fling" mechanic. Two completely different champions, honestly.

IMO, Singed>Voli anyways. It's just too easy to pretty much bypass his passive, by just tossing ignite on him at the proper time. He's still really annoying top, regardless.

Volibear top is extremely strong, he's really difficult to kill because of his passive, very difficult to gank because of his move speed increase and very strong dualist. he's kind of like Ad nidalee in the sense that he snowballs the lane harder than most champs. It's favorable for voli to trade with people because his damage output increases the lower the enemy's health is. I think overall in a team aspect he is quite weak, he doesn't do anything exceptionally well except be tanky and hard to kill with decent damage. But there are alot of champions that do it better than him. He seems very underrated in my opinion.

I like to build Volibear with Spirit Visage, Frozen Mallet, Rylai's Crystal Scepter, Atma's Impaler. Slow no matter what you do to someone, **** tons of health, a passive that is stronger than Sion ult, and some decent extra damage. The rest is usually tank items, like Zhonya's Hourglass (lol at activating it once your passive kicks off), Frozen Heart, Banshee's Veil, stuff like that that all synergize well with him dealing both physical and magical damage and being an unkillable *******.

No way that his passive is stronger than Sion ulti. Sion can sustain a whole team during TF!
If you for some reason want to follow my ranked journey to gold, you can do it Here.

I am against asking for rep, only rep me if you think I contributed well or said something wise.

If you have 4k health and 15% increased lifegain and Volibear gains that huge percent of life than yes... It is indeed more powerful. I've lived through the same situations as Sion has, and more. Spirit Visage is godmode item on voli. It basically let you gain nearly 50% of your life back over 6 seconds. If you have 4k health, that means you get almost 2k health back in 6 seconds, which adds up to about 350 health/second. Not to mention if you put yourself into stasis with Zhonya's Hourglass and take no damage a third of the time you gian that life back, which works out to be about 700 health. And no... if 5 players are focusing sion, then he will melt in a couple of seconds. Nobody can sustain an entire 5 man team ****ping on them. People just dont treat sion like they should lol. They attack him, see that his life isnt moving too much, then move to someone else, kill them, then move back to sion, then move on to someone else when they get close enough... Anyway, build voli with decent damage, **** tons of life, some armor and mres, and a spirit visage, and you're golden.

He falls in the teamfight phase, otherwise he is extremely strong bot jungler and solo top. I hate going against him top.
