Tips Against Volibear in Top Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

rippytide09 says “Farm with cleavers and walk away when he goes on all fours to run at you. He will claw at you and leave a mark- DON'T LET HIM PROC THAT MARK or he will deal loads more damage and heal off of you! Stay healthy and farm in the lane. If you're low, be careful because his ult disables your turret for a short amount of time and he can dive you with his jungler. You outscale him since he falls off a cliff and is not great in teamfights. However, it's unlikely you'll be able to solokill him,”
Sekirooo says “♡ Volibear the best of poet he is very disgusting to deal with rush mercs and to always fight when you have your abilites and don't let him hit you with his E and his W is just him healing poking him with Q and drain his health before fighting ”
♡ Become The Hand Of Noxus ♡ by Sekirooo | Darius Player
claubertonious says “you have to be careful against voli, your W does NOT cancel his q but it refunds it so if you step up too far he can run you down, its a good idea to rush boots against voli (both tabis and mercs are good) as your spacing is so important in this matchup, you can win the lane but you need to be super careful in the mid game as he will just run you down if you're caught lacking. Use your E to block his Q E.”

doomfallover says “you need anti heal and he becomes useless so fight only when ignite is up and ignite at 50% hp not sooner”

POCHOSAURUS12 says “Use your W and E when he want to use his stun If you wanna fight do it when he has not shield of E, when you hear the sound of him using the E go backwards, but they usually do E and Q to stun you into the thunder so use your W and E in this moment. ”

TheMild1 says “Do not let him Get his W off while you are marked. Watch out when he hits 6 as he might be able to dive. Bramble and merc treads are pretty strong here.”

Dragonlord1022 says “Fleet Footwork Conditioning and Unflinching or Nimbus Cloak and Celerity Move Speed D Blade → Refillable → Swifties → Tri Force - Don't go Bone Plating, Volibear passive will just break it all the time for free - Stay healthy, take free trades - Play around move speed, you never want Voli on top of you if you can't kill him in a single mega rotation - His Q makes him fast and cleanses slows - His E slows - Your Q slows a tiny bit - Your W procs are your best friend - E out when it looks like you messed up, and don't let him get into range if you have E down - As long as your disciplined and have somewhat good kiting, this lane is fun and Gnar favored”
[26.04] Wyvern's Gnar by Dragonlord1022 | Gnar Player
Saneryus says “Unfortuantely, volibear is a statcheck match up and he can kinda just do quick tower dives on you once he hits level 4. This match up is all about not dying until level 6. SImilar to garen's and trundle's gameplan of running at you to kill you. Pre-6 is most volatile. You have to be very careful about positioning since he has a very long timer on his speed up. Once 6, hold the wave on your side as long as possible so that way you can poke/trade against him without him being able to do so in return. Unfortuantely, he can also do quick tower dives on you because of his shield until you're in lethal range to all in. Again, just do your best to survive and scale. - Stand PTA | MS Shard, HP scaling Can also go second wind/unflinching if you think jungler will camp you. - DShield - TP/Exhaust - can go merc treads early if AP jungler will camp you. Otherwise, swifty so you can outrun his speed up.”
PokeRoyal2007 says “Really annoying, but playable. Don´t fight him level 1, try to rush BOTR. If you get a kill before him, it´s free, you stomp him, but don´t be too confident because he can still kill you (his Q is annoying af)”

TENSION019 says “Grasp, Doran Ring, Flash and Ghost. Well well well, say hello to the most broken character in history. He stuns, he runs fast, he heals, he is tanky, he deals damage, he gets shields and he EVEN TURNS OFF TOWERS. And who is this lovely monster? Volibear, of course. You are not winning trades against this cursed champion. If you throw him under tower, he will just disable it. Usually after I toss him under tower, I back off, wait for my turret to turn back on, then W back to safety. You basically have almost no chance to win this lane. Do not try to trade, do not get greedy for farm, just focus on staying alive.”

MiniBlue says “An extreme threat, do not fight against Volibear, he has a great early and strong duel.”
Ataraxiaf20 says “Dont ever try to 1v1 it, dont fight him when ur marked with his w (wait it out dont heal him for free), usually very kitable champion just dont skirmish around it, u clear faster anyways just outtempo him”
ATARAXIA'S HECARIM GUIDE by Ataraxiaf20 | Hecarim Player
giloocore says “Match up almost unplayable before lvl 6. He solos u and its not even close. U have to farm asap for lvl 6 and if u get it before him than you can kill him on your ult. Than you can kill him whenever he doesnt have ultimate cuz his first 2 items are going to be dusk and dawn and navori so he will be pretty squishy. Dont try to invade him early cuz he can heal of his camps.”

L0ganJG says “I always try to E his Q stun. Either push him away or into a wall. Only use your W if you're going to deal enough damage that he will feel. Voli wants you to fight him when he W's you. He wants to spam his E shield and W heal to outlast every fight. So you have to keep your damage in mind and know if you will win the fight. If you don't know, you shouldn't fight ”
PeteMKT says “Ele e um campeão meio a meio, ele no inicio tem um dano alto somente se acertar o 'E', caso contrario ele so causará um dano sincero caso ele estaque sua passiva. Não esqueça que o voli ele se cura em uma quantidade alta quando você está marcado, é se manter afastado dele e dificil. no mid game você agora consegue trocar dano, mas caso erre a fuga do 'E' ele ganha, caso não você ganha. já no Late game você troca mais dano do que ele consegue causar ou recuperar, ele se torna meio fragil, mas se lembre que se ele acetar o 'E' e praticamente fim de jogo.”

Hazardist says “[[volibear]] is a stronger stat-checker than you are for the most part of the game, both in duels and teamfights. For this matchup, you will have to more carefully and never overstep into the [[Jungle]] if your laners don't have prio and you don't have visual confirmation on [[volibear]], but in the mid and late game you should switch this up and be the one to start fights, unless the enemy team is clearly ahead, since his engages are stronger than yours.”
MiniBlue says “An extreme threat, do not fight against Volibear, he has a great early and strong duel.”
Wizarudo says “You can sustain and pivot but this bear can outsustain you and out damage you (Then why picking poppy) Due to utility and can fend yourself better if losing, or at least have the chance”

MiniBlue says “Una amenaza demasiado potente, ni se te ocurra pelear contra Volibear en principio de partida con duelos.”
