Exciting Volibear Rework Suggestion

Volibear is a thrilling champion and with some changes, he could be very rewarding to play. Below is a list of spells I believe would make Volibear more stimulating and also more viable.

  • Passive Ability (Innate): Volibear's passive shouldn't be changed. We love it.

  • Q (Feral Instinct): Volibear becomes enraged increasing his size, melee attack range, and movement speed. The first attack against an enemy while enraged will cause Volibear to lunge at the target, stunning them.

  • W (Frenzy): This ability works well with the new kit too and still makes him a brawler because of the execute potential, not just a cc spam tank. Especially when paired with his passive.

  • E (Swipe): Volibear aggressively swings in front of him damaging all enemies. Immobilized targets damaged by Swipe will also bleed out for damage over time.

  • R (Thunder Born): Volibear releases an electric field around him causing damage and applying Shock to all enemies. Shocked targets have their movement speed reduced and become snared at 4 charges.

Basically, this kit allows Volibear to compete with other tanks or bruisers by giving him utility that can impact team fights. It also makes him seem more like a bear. Instead of running at someone and flipping them over his head, Volibear tackles an enemy and stuns them. Afterward, he Swipes with his E and causes extra bleed damage. In team fights, he can engage with Q and use his ultimate to slow/snare the enemy so his team can catch up and engage as well. This is tons better than his current state where he only thrives in 1 on 1 combat and is probably why so many other champions are preferred.

Some bits of intersting thoughts here... also Voli isnt a tank he is a juggernaut.
