Can we talk about Volibear's passive?

I find this passive super useful during the early phase but as the game progresses he pretty much doesn't have a passive anymore. You have summoners like summoner 14 and items like item 3165 that counters his passive pretty hard.

It's also pretty easy to kill him during his active passive as an ADC or any champion with item 3031 item 3035 item 3033 item 3135

The moment his passive pops and is engaged in another team fight, he pretty much doesn't have a passive, AT ALL. Since it's on CD.

I honestly can't think of a creative passive for him that would benefit him so much. But I do believe he's in need of work/help cuz he's someone I don't EVER see often for a reason, besides Trick2g and his fans.

[Well actually I can think of a passive where he has a built in QSS for a duration along with his healing but I think that'd be too OP lol]

If a Rioter is reading this, I have a question for you, Why hasn't Volibear been in your Radar in regards to anything? You recently did give him a buff on his ult but this is a champion who hasn't been touched in any form of changes. Like how you gave Darius changes in his kit in the past. As for visual aesthetics, he needs a skill icon update. lol

People have been complaining about how Grievous Wounds affects champions horribly, and it really isn't fixed, because grievous wounds was primarily a way to keep tanks that regen in check. Voli would be WAYYYYYY stronger if his passive got a buff and wasn't affected by it, maybe even meta

Grievous Wounds exists because of Soraka, Vlad, and the fact that Warlords and Lifesteal both need to get deleted from the game.

Buff his passive and it is broken, leave it alone and it is weak, that is the problem.

It needs to be completely reworked for it to be buffed without being broken. They are currently focused on so many champions for a rework that it will be a while till they get around to him. I think instead of a regen he should get buffed defensive stats and a little bit of movement speed, it would fit with his kit more.

It would have room to be much stronger if it were conditional. but it's not, so it doesn't.

Volibear deserves a rework. Maybe in the second juggernaut class update if there will be one. He doesn't have anything really special going on for himself other than his W scaling really well with hp. He's pretty strong early game though and is probably one of the least item dependent champions.
