How to play it

✓

Dodge his Q stun

Never let Volibear get on top of you: his Q stun guarantees his E follow-up and a trade you can't win.

✓

Trade level 1

Trade lightly at level 1 before the waves crash: he has no passive stacks yet, and you can dodge his E with your Q's.

✓

Block E with W

From level 3 poke with Q while spacing him, kite away, and block his E with your W if needed.

✕

Never take extended trades or auto-attack battles: Volibear wins prolonged fights.
