His kit kinda counters the bear, matchup is playable if he's running grasp but if he goes lethal tempo you'll mostly just get stat-checked no matter what.
Matchup can be played at lower elos but i would still recommend this to be your main ban.

About Me

However, since this season, I've transitioned to playing Volibear in the top lane.

How to Not Get Mauled While Mauling Others
Alright, listen up you absolute animals. You've decided to main the Thunder Lord himself, ![]() ![]() Volibear is basically what happens when a bear gets struck by lightning and decides to become a professional wrestler. He's tanky, he's angry, and he has absolutely zero chill. Perfect for those of you who think "subtlety" is just a fancy word for "weakness." |
Aggression Level
| MAXIMUM - You're not here to make friends, you're here to make enemies regret queuing up. |
Positioning
| FRONTLINE - Always. If you're not in the enemy's face, you're doing it wrong. |
Lane Role
| DOMINATOR - You're the guy who makes enemy top laners question their life choices. |

When you hit level 3, you become an absolute menace. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The key is to be aggressive without being stupid. There's a fine line between "calculated aggression" and "feeding your brains out." You want to be the former, not the latter. Pro Tip: Use your ![]() |
What You Should Be Doing
|
• Roaming mid to help your mid laner Teleporting to bot lane for team fights Securing rift herald with your team Pushing your lane and taking top tower Being a nuisance to the entire enemy team |
What You Should NOT Be Doing
|
• Sitting in top lane farming while your team gets destroyed Ignoring team fights because "you're a top laner" Letting your opponent free farm while you do nothing Being selfish - you're not ![]() |
Your Ultimate is your ticket to becoming the most hated player on the enemy team. Use it to dive towers, secure kills, and generally make the enemy ADC question why they even play this game.
Your job in team fights is simple: find the most important enemy player and make their life miserable. Whether that's diving their ADC, peeling for your carries, or just being an unkillable nuisance, you need to be the center of attention. Remember: Volibear doesn't do "subtle." He does "loud, angry, and effective." If you're not making the enemy team focus you, you're not doing your job properly. Team Fight Priority: Dive the enemy ADC/Mid laner Peel for your carries if needed Be an unkillable nuisance Chase down anyone who tries to escape |
MISTAKE
|
Playing Too Passive - You're a bear, not a ![]() |
MISTAKE
|
Forgetting Your Ultimate - ![]() ![]() |
MISTAKE
| Poor Positioning - You're tanky, but you're not invincible. Don't dive into 5 enemies alone unless you're absolutely sure you can get out alive. |
MISTAKE
| Ignoring Objectives - Volibear is excellent at securing objectives. Use your tankiness and damage to help your team get dragons, barons, and towers. |
Remember: Volibear doesn't ask for permission, he asks for forgiveness. And usually, he doesn't even do that. He just mauls you and moves on to the next target.
So go forth, my thunderous friends, and make the enemy team regret their life choices. Just remember to have fun while you're doing it - because if you're not having fun while playing a lightning bear, you're doing something wrong.




Your go-to keystone for most matchups. Perfect against squishy top laners like ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
The choice for extended fights and tanky opponents. Excellent against ![]() ![]() ![]() |
The solution to Volibear's biggest weakness: getting locked down. Perfect against slowing champions like ![]() ![]() ![]() |
The tank option for scaling. Great when going for the tank build or when figthing short-trade champs like ![]() ![]() |
