Honestly, Fuck Volibear. He is a fuckin 0 skill high reward, high damage, massive speed FULL TANK piece of shit.
Voli always been an issue and the REAL issue is his passive, NOTHING else.
Fucker takes no brain cells to play and ALWAYS carries games.
Jewlibear6 votesAs a volibear main I heavily disagree with you! He may have a simple kit, but I do not agree he takes 0 skill. The biggest thing about voli is knowing your limits. And knowing what you can do. Now with his recent nerfs his early game is a lot slower. He has 3 major weaknesses. If you build full tank. (Which I prefer)
Volibear is average right now. Not too strong not too weak. I'm willing to help you learn his weaknesses and what voli's look for.
ZeeWolfZ1 votesIn all my games through plat and diamond I have NEVER seen Voli kited.
Once he has spirit visage and his jungle item, that's it. He is unstoppable.
NOTHING you can fuckin do to him at this point because tank items are cheap as dirt and to build against him you require far more farm.

It's pretty easy to beat volibear's passive. I doesnt heal instantly, therefore burst beats him, or higher sustain. I highly doubt you have "never" seen voli been kited. I mean, I have over 100 games on voli in ranked and 160ish in general. I've been kited quite a few times. I gave you quite a few weaknesses of volibear. he has a big hitbox, and he runs at you. especially if he has ghost, or no flash. I looked up your match history, you lost two games to volibear. Remember he can snowball, but through his nerfs its harder for him to do so. http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=ZeeWolfZ you seem to be on tilt. I think you need a break. I honestly dont think its volibears balance that's the issue
LordGeovanni1 voteson the other hand tanks farm alot slower and jungle has access to less gold so if he is building faster than you that says something about how effective your laneing is
Jbels4 votesSeriously? Darius exists and you're mad about Volibear? Atleast you can kinda sorta survive a trade with Volibear in lane. Darius busts your kneecaps AND chops off an arm.

Voli is a jungler.
EndlessSorcerer3 votesVolibear has been played in the top lane quite often throughout the years.
He can and has been played Top, Jungle and Support.

That's nice and all, but people don't complain about Volibear top. I wasn't disputing that Voli can be played top.
Fact of the matter is that he's a better jungler.
YumaS2Astral2 votesVoli is a jungler.
He is also viable top laner
oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votesvolibear is a top laner, jungler and sometimes a support. he is a fighter who can tank.
LordGeovanni1 votesVolibear is a top laner that can barely function in his lane so he is takein support and jungle instead because fear on jungle camps for 2 seconds
WoonStruck3 votesHis passive has never been what's bullshit. If you get baited by it, its on you.
His W is his issue.
Volibear is an extremely binary champion that either carries the game with W, or is a one-trick-pony with Q for his team.
His ult and E are extremely lackluster, gameplay-wise; he doesn't really need more than his Q and W to accomplish what he does.
Rework him. He has way more potential than what Riot gave him.
Jewlibear2 votesImo after his nerf his w is pretty balanced
WoonStruck1 votesHe's been 'balanced' for a long time.
It doesn't mean he's not binary, his kit doesn't have issues, and that he doesn't need a rework in order to actually fulfill the potential he offers, though.
Matezoide1 votesI find his ult to be very strong, it is just...boring.
LordGeovanni2 votesi like his ult and dont that that every ult in the game needs to be doing 5 different things at once
Matezoide1 votesEh, boring was a bad word. I meant something like...simple, not very flashy.
It is definetly a great ult. Especially in lane, you are effectively doubling your DPS.
Then again one time i killed a Jax near Dragon and the ult jumped from in to dragon and their Lee Sin, getting me a double kill and a Dragon, so i might be biased.
Really, flashiness has a huge effect on how people perceive the ability's power. To this day i still see people saying Rammus' ult is bad.
LordGeovanni1 voteson a champion that has no way to make palys besides flash though they need to compensate in some way or you risk becomming what he currently Though less than any other tank becuase he is a bruiser is and along with malphite and most other tanks guys who just get ripped apparty becuase you are told you can take damage but after getting hit 3 times from several champions you ahve to either run or jsut accept your fate die and try to do something to make it work it. melee champions get the raw end wen they arent assassins because you cant kill anyone quick enough before they kill you or run but you have to get to your opponent before doing anything and only mordekaiser really get to do that in a way that he is without a doubt impactful
Daxanater3 votesI'd honestly expect you to be a bit more smarter since your plat 2 but, like every tank in the game he falls off. How to counter his passive? 
into 
, uhh 
and also 
high damage early I'll admit, but without red buff his damage is only in his ult, how to counter his ult? Magic resist and also 
with 
will reduce his attack speed, 
is really good to counter his early ganks.
anymore questions?
edit: gonna add more stuff that destroys him, a good 
but very rare to find, 
if you already have grievous wounds in your kit 
can help spread grievous wounds during team fights without you focusing him from or just pop ignite on him and he'll be useless,
slows, everything that slows 
slows and destroys voli in 1v1s, 
and everything that slows pretty much.
your gonna want someone that has %health damage which is probably the best thing that counters voli, with grievous wounds he's useless, 
destroys voli with her passive 
and and can kite him and destroy him. 
is really good on voli but if you got %health damage it punishes him for buying it too so you can out damage his heal as well with the attack speed and dmg from %health dmg.
im not sure if I said it but g r i e v o u s w o u n d s

Thank you!
ZeeWolfZ1 votesVayne is not a good choice at the moment. Not in higher elo.
She is easily destroyed and very hard to pull off in solo queues.
Executioner is a solid item, sadly, rarely anybody builds it in this elo due to how much early heatlh tanks have.
Voli suits into this patch very well and not much you can do to him. Just have to wait out the nerfs that are definitely coming for him.
Daxanater1 votes.. then what are you complaining for??
is this legit just to join the banter of balance or something. He got nerfed not too long ago so don't expect anymore coming up, and how about asking your teammates or even yourself? get your adc just to have it as a side item and let them get the rest.
also how are you going to tell me you don't have an ap on your team that can get morellos
paperbIade2 votes 
DarkRitual1 votesDark Binding is a pretty strong way to counter him.
LordGeovanni1 votesthe skill lies in getting to your enemy and fighting them without spammable high damage skills his kit bearlyscales with anything
Vaelentino1 votesI don't play him but cmonnn... You can't say voli takes no skill when trashcan Yi hasn't been deleted form the game yet....
I'm personally tired of champions who once you click on a minion or champ to cast a skill it just makes it from point A to B without the need to aim.
I wonder how many people would still play trash Yi if his alpha strike was actually some sort of skillshot mechanic that could miss.
