Okay, so I'm still confused as all get out... Im very curious why in almighty Earth you allow a champ to build full tank with 6000 health to continue 1 shot bitting someone. I have no clue why ANYONE sees this as fair. 6k health already wins you the game, but 6k health with a free execute? Someone wanna tell me whats fair about that BS?

If a 6K Volibear is one shotting people with his bite, those targets have some 464 max hp. Hmm.

See you say that, but then when "fighters" build 4k health and STILL do that much damage, compared to the people who are building ad or ap and do nothing to the "fighter" becaue they can be tanky and still do shit ton of dmg

Well for a start most APs are naturally unequipped to fight Fighters anyway. APs prioritize Burst, Fighters prioritize Tankiness. Don't you know that Tankiness naturally (and mathematically) counters Burst?

And I mean, given that Kog'Maw exists in his current state, it's a little underhanded to throw ADs under the bus like that.

to talk about how broken volibear and other bullcrap tanks are

Volibear is a fighter, not a tank. This is because his threat to the enemy team is primarily damage-oriented and not CC/utility-oriented. He's rather like Mundo in that regard.

Im very curious why in almighty Earth you allow a champ to build full tank with 6000 health to continue 1 shot bitting someone.

At 6000 health, his max-rank Frenzy bit will deal between:

  • Minimum Damage: (260 + 0.15 *(6000 - 2046)) = 853.1
  • Maximum Damage: (520 + 0.3 * (6000 - 2046)) = 1706.2

Even ignoring base armor, Volibear's bite will not "one-shot" any champion in the game, even the squishist of them. This remains true even if you are generous enough to let him deal its maximum damage against a full-health target.

Realistically, a squishy champion without armor would have to be in the ~50% health range to be one-shot by bite with 0 armor. Considering Volibear doesn't build armor penetration/reduction and every champion starts with base armor (and would be ~80 or higher at max level, near halving the damage taken), you are horribly exaggerating.

6k health already wins you the game

Percentage health damage exists and if Volibear has stacked enough health items to reach 6000 Health, he's going to have rather low armor and MR. Percentage health damage abilities and items will tear through him. BoRK alone would deal an additional 180 health per hit when Volibear is at half health.

but 6k health with a free execute?

Nothing in a champion's kit is free. Everything in their kit has been factored in when determining the champion's power-budget.

If any ability in the game is considered "free", then by definition every ability in the game is free.

Someone wanna tell me whats fair about that BS?

Volibear has no dash or blink. As such, he relies on a movement speed buff to reach important targets and he can be quite easy to peel if someone is kiting backwards competently.

Tanky dps is stupid broken at this point in the game.

I don't recall any changes to Voli that would suddenly make him OP. Pretty sure the meta is just shifting and it favors him currently, at lower elos that is. He is fairly easy to kite and any form of hard CC will stop him from doing anything. Grievous Wounds.
