The Volibear problem.

He does no damage besides his W, which is on a long ass cooldown unless you bite a minion or a monster. His ult doesn't really work with the rest of his kit, if anything I think it was just added because of lore.

Besides that, his Q and E feels super smooth and work well with eachother. He's more of a utility/gank tank jungler, but I just feel like he needs more mmph in power somewhere else. Yes, his W does a good chunk of damage, but he can only use it once per fight. After that, you kinda just walk back and forth until your Q or E is back up.

The thing about Voli is that he was designed during a time when damage, on the whole, was sane.

Back then, just "I stick to you and auto attack you multiple times, with an execute for burst" was a significant and meaningful damage threat, because we didn't have the insane damage creep that we do today. It was actually feasible for him to sit there autoating you until you were low enough for a W kill, because he wouldn't get blown the fuck up for trying to wait that long.

Ive seen a few people try building him ap tank with varying degrees of sucess.

If anything, he become more bursty with less tanky, but it does spice things up.

volibear's ult works well with the rest of his kit on hit damage with an attack reset and attack speed buff (thats conditional and still worse than adc attack speed buffs though that usually have a movement speed buff attached MF Twitch Draven or be like tristana's and get an attack speed buff double the other guys and can be lowered cooldown) Just that later on they added a knock back on his E which made him better not ulting but it messes with his ult combo. the other thing is that he has super poor defenses and ranged champions get free movement speed on their items on top of having in hit cc and escapes thus he cant reasonably go in range for an extended duration for his passive and ult to work properly also with damage creep and constant burst coming into being voli can rarely survive long enough to use his whole passive that has a super long cooldown.
