Aurelion Sol vs Volibear

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Prioritize farming safely to reach your strong mid-late game scaling as Volibear pressures early with high lane agency and lane pressure.
Avoid giving Volibear free all-in windows by respecting his (Q) stun and (W) repeat damage threat to deny him early health leads.

Trading pattern

Trade short poke combos using (E) into (Q) and back off before Volibear can land a second (W) bite or follow up with (E) slow.
Punish Volibear after he uses (Q) or misses (E) by stepping forward to apply pressure and wave control.
Avoid prolonged fights where Volibear can heal from repeated (W) hits; keep trades brief and controlled.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (Q) is up as it grants him movement speed and a stun, enabling dangerous all-ins.
Respect Volibear's threat to force extended fights where his second (W) heal and (E) shield make him durable.
Avoid low-health states near your tower post-level 6 to prevent Volibear from executing tower dives with (R).

Early game

Use (E) into (Q) for poke and waveclear to maintain distance and prevent Volibear from engaging easily.
Avoid extended trades before level 6 when (R) dive threat and durability are lower.
Position to dodge or sidestep (Q) to reduce his engage success and punish his cooldowns.

Power spikes

Respect Volibear's level 6 power spike when (R) enables tower dives and increased durability; avoid fights under turret when low on health.
Play toward your major power spikes: after 75+ Stardust stacks upgrade your (R), and after completing Rylai's to increase chase and trade reliability.
Track Volibear's first bruiser or tank item timing as he becomes harder to trade with; adjust aggression accordingly.

Win conditions

Focus on stable farming and safe waveclear to reach your late-game scaling and upgraded (R) power spike.
Use your superior poke and range to deny Volibear repeated contact and prevent him from healing off (W).
Play around safe resets and look for teamfights or skirmishes where your scaling and roaming impact can turn fights in your favor.
