Volibear's w is basically a darius ult

I Main Swain··2 votes·1,219 views

first off, no I'm not just some noob crying about voli when he is finally becoming viable again. I have had this complaint ever since I first saw volibear. his w, at all stages of the game, does way too much damage (all the while building straight tank). you go in to fight him level 1 and his w executes you from 1/3 hp. you go in to fight him rank 18 and his w executes you from 1/2 hp. I literally take less damage from darius ults. the problem is the health scaling. no other tank in the game has any health scaling for ANYTHING that high. it doesn't need to be anywhere that high. at the very least, it should have a large chunk of the health scaling changed to ad scaling.

edit: im not asking for his w damage to be nerfed to the ground with a 10% health scaling, I just want a large chunk of the health scaling to be shifted to ad scaling.

There is a ginormous difference between true damage and physical damage

As a volibear main, I can tell you to kindly go fuck urself.

Darius -Scales off of stacks -True damage -Can be used immediately -Resets on kill for multiple uses

Volibear -Only ability he has that really hurts besides ult -Needs to land autoattacks or it cant be used -Physical damage

Complaining about Voli of all things ......

you say that as if I'm a nidalee main. it is in fact possible to have more than one thing with too much damage.

No I was insinuating that it's kind of crazy to complain about voli when we have champs like Nidalee doing much worse than Voli. Voli is easily kited btw and has no way to escape.

yes hes easily kited, but in my mind he's always been more of a "get to them and stick with them" kind of champ, not a "get to them and instarape them". in other words, I've always thought he should be dps and hard to get away from.

Bro you say you're not acting like a noob but you are. First true vs Physical. Second, I'm pretty sure Voli's W doesn't refresh after he kills someone.

I Main Swain1 votes

first off, what does refreshing have to do with the damage? and I know there's a difference between true and physical damage, which is why I think it's dumb that I'm taking more damage from a volibear w when he's building straight tank than a darius ult when he's building at least bruiser.

Volibear's w is basically a darius ult. that's what you said. So I pointed out they you are wrong. It's not basically. Also bro Darius is pretty powerful. you just have to use him right and Darius is a counter Voli. So either you suck and don't know how to take voli down or you need help. Really you are complaining about Darius not being able to kill voli.

Also Refresh is a very powerful thing in team fights and if you use it well you can kill a hole team with it and it's a execute so keep track of your health and armor will help you out with that. While true is just damage bro. You just seem but hurt.

holy crap bro, you got waaaaaay off topic. first off, my comparison was the damage, like I pointed out multiple times. second, ofc darius is powerful, that's kinda why I made the comparison. third, why are you now talking about countering and crap? and more to the point, why are you acting like I'm a darius player complaining about losing a match to voli?

once again, I am not talking about anything but the damage it deals, regardless of whether or not its true damage or not. Im talking about the damage you actually take. please actually read it next time, 90% of your post had absolutely nothing to do with anything...

That might be true if you're a squishy.

Any bruiser/tank can kill a squishy early to mid game. That's the point of being squishy.

trying to redefine the word "basically" to something similar to "not at all alike"?

I Main Swain1 votes

did you read the post at all? even a little? I was comparing the damage. his w easily takes out half the health of a carry late game, and a third early game regardless of whether you're a carry or not.
