Volibear vs Aurelion Sol

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Volibear's early lane pressure to deny Aurelion Sol a calm scaling phase by forcing repeated melee trades.
Prioritize aggressive wave control and health leads to enable level 6 dive threat and prevent Aurelion Sol from farming safely.

Trading pattern

Initiate trades with (Q) and align (E) to maximize damage and survivability during brawls.
Commit to extended fights only when second (W) healing can be secured or after reaching level 6 for (R) dive threat.
Punish Aurelion Sol immediately after he uses (Q) or (W) to disengage, as his mobility and poke are reduced.

Danger windows

Respect Aurelion Sol's upgraded ultimate after 75+ Stardust stacks, as his teamfight presence and chase potential increase.
Be cautious post-Rylai's completion on Aurelion Sol, as his slows and damage make extended trades riskier.
Avoid extended trades or tower dives before level 6 when Volibear lacks ultimate durability and dive threat.

Early game

Start trades with (Q) to close distance and stun before Aurelion Sol can position safely.
Use (E) to shield and slow around trade paths, enabling second (W) hits for healing.
Avoid chasing through minion waves where (Q) cannot connect to prevent losing trade momentum.

Power spikes

At level 3, use full ability combo (Q), (W), (E) to threaten brawls and force Aurelion Sol out of lane.
At level 6, leverage (R) to dive under turret or force recalls, capitalizing on Volibear's increased durability and tower-disable.
After first bruiser or tank item, pressure trades and skirmishes to outlast Aurelion Sol through repeat (W) healing.

Win conditions

Snowball early lane pressure by forcing health leads with (Q) and (W) to deny Aurelion Sol safe farming.
Use level 6 (R) to create dive opportunities or force Aurelion Sol off the wave, preventing his scaling.
Transition health and durability leads into side-lane pressure or teamfights where Volibear's engage and sustain excel.
