Because his W scales off his HP.

He's good against some champions, bad against others.

which is annoying and broken as shit. there is no counterplay to a 5k hp voli who has flash.

You keep using that word.

But I don't think it means what you think it means.

u cant fight him,ignite doesnt do shit since you cant fight him to begin with. you cant lane or farm near him. you cant run because he will dive you with his 2k hp healing passive applied with spirit visage. thats not something you can counterplay or win vs as a top laner.

I'm pretty sure you can't fight any 5k HP Tank.

does Voli start off with a visage?

Darius Passive destroys him, Teemo stops his w, Aatrox can out damage and sustain him. Renekton can farm better and dodge his q with his E, Garen can silennce his Q and reduce his damage when Q'd, Jayce is broken, Singed does the same thing as him but better, he cant touch Vladimir , Chogath unbothered, Trundle utterly destroys him, Maokai cant be touched by him, Nasus only has to W him, Gangplank out ranges him and can slow him, Zac Elise Vayne Gnar bend him over their knees.

But no one ever plays any of these tops cause: Olaf Riven Fiora Tryndamere Pantheon are all ppl are willing to play! All~ of them are pretty crappy top picks which are all able to jg better than they can do top lane, and all are not made to fight voli which u were probably one of them.

He doesn't shit on everyone top... thats why you hardly see voli top... actually many top laners shit on him. with the exception of Nidalee Irelia Sion Yorick

The reason Voli does alot of execute damage is cause hes one of the rare tanks made to successfully jg... next to sejuani and amumu... and because unlike other tanks he gets no strong tools to mitigate damage he receives, outside of items, nor strong team peeling capability... hence why hes primary fighter and secondary tank like Aatrox Garen and Vladimir not primary tank like Rammus Shen Malphite all of which are much more challenging to kill.

Voli has a HP centric kit like Vladimir Sion Cause they are expected to all in a teamfight and cause chaos,

Sure there is. Volibear is exclusively melee and has no gapcloser. Gnar shits on him all game from level 1 until 6 slotted at level 18. Gnar does more damage, is ranged, has more CC and is more mobile. Nidalee Kennen Quinn shit on him starting level 1. Cassiopeia shits on him starting level 2.

And if he is winning top, who the fk cares what he does? He builds tank and thus can't push towers fast, so if you indeed are losing, give up outer, roam with team. Top loses 0v1, rest of map wins 5v4. Now he has to decide whether to leave lane and expose his weaknesses of being easily kiteable and weak to %HP damage, or keep pushing but slowly, giving your team a chance to collapse on him 4v1 or 5v1.

He has far less mobility, CC and general utility than every other Tank. He gets a lot more damage to make up for this.

Honestly it's pretty balanced.

but has more damage than all of them combined while building the same shit. flash q isnt hard.

He only has one form of hard CC whereas most other Tanks have at least 2-3.

He doesn't do more damage than all of them combined. His only health scaling is on a low CD.

Do you even know the difference between a dps tank and a cc tank.

He has more damage, obviously, that's the point. He just lacks the same level of cc. That's the trade-off.

Just build item 3153 item 3151 item 3165 if he's that much of an issue. If you're not willing to counterbuild though, then you've got no right to complain.
