Volibear needs fixing

VolibearVolibear is really overpowered atm. Didn't Udyr Udyr and Shyvana Shyvana get nerfed because they did too much damage as a tank? Well, Volibear is the new tank that does damage even when he build cinderhulk! Shyvana and Udyr both built Devourer. Volibear probably does more damage than Udyr and Shyvana when he build cinderhulk which is completely horrible. That needs some fixing.

I agree. He has been pretty strong for a while now and since everyone else in the jungle has gotten hit by the nerf bat he is looking much stronger by comparison.

he is strong, but also weak. it depends on the enemy team, if you play lucian or vayne against him voli will have a bad time. or place a darius against him also works. he has certain counters but he can be overwhelming if left alone.

As someone who plays Volibear and Shyvana a lot, I can tell you that Volibear does WAY less damage than either Shyvana and Udyr. Shyvana, for example, has enough damage to 3-shot squishies and enough %HP damage to shred the tanks. Volibear does just enough damage to barely kill one squishy IF he's not kited, then has to help peel/intimidate/tank for the rest of the fight. He makes up for it by having more CC and engage.

He's like Garen. He does just enough base damage to kill an unprotected carry, which is his job as a bruiser-tank. If he can't do the simple job of killing one target, then he's absolutely worthless. Think: Why would I play a bruiser-tank (like Volibear, Garen, Mundo, or Olaf) when I could instead play a high-CC tank (like Sejuani and Amumu)? Well, I'd only do it because the team needs a big frontliner who can scare the enemy carries away or kill them, instead of CCing for the backline. I might not get to do nearly as much damage as Zed or Yi (or Shyvana), but at least I get to be tanky and big while I do it.
