Teemo vs Volibear

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use ranged poke and repeated short trades with (Q) blind to deny Volibear's melee engage attempts.
Control side-lane and river paths with (R) traps to limit Volibear's dive and engage angles.
This is a control vs snowball matchup where Teemo must prevent Volibear from gaining early health leads and dive pressure.

Trading pattern

Trade short bursts using (Q) to blind Volibear's autos and back off before he can land second (W) healing.
Punish Volibear's missed (Q) or (E) by stepping forward to chip with poison autos.
Use (R) trap setups to control chase paths and force Volibear to take risky engages or retreat.

Danger windows

Respect (Q) stun window and avoid standing still where he can easily reach melee range.
Be cautious when (Q) is up and Volibear is marked for second (W) healing, as he will attempt extended trades.
Avoid fighting under turret after level 6 if Volibear has (R) available, as he can force dives and tower damage.

Early game

Abuse Volibear's need to engage melee by poking with poison autos and blinding key auto trades early.
Place (R) traps in river and brush to create safe zones and punish his approach paths.
Avoid extended melee fights before level 6 when (R) dive threat is not active yet.

Power spikes

At level 6, place (R) traps aggressively around side lanes and retreat paths to punish Volibear's dive attempts.
After first damage item, increase poke frequency and use (Q) to blind Volibear's autos to deny his sustain from (W).
Respect Volibear's level 6 (R) and first tank item spikes by keeping distance and avoiding prolonged fights without trap support.

Win conditions

Use (Q) blind and poison autos to deny Volibear's melee trades and prevent him from stacking (W) healing.
Establish and maintain a dense (R) trap network to control side-lane paths and punish his all-in attempts.
Pressure the wave with ranged poke to force Volibear to engage on your terms or lose CS and health.
