This is Kled's own plan; across 520 pooled games the lane is leaning Volibear.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Volibear | Your weakest level meets his W bite-heal grind — you have no poke and want mount health preserved, so he wins the slow level-1 trade. |
| Level 2 | Kled | Your W shotgun shots come online and Skaarl's free health bar lets you win the level-2 all-in before his bite-heal scales. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Full re-E (E in, W on-hit shots, E back) plus remount sustain out-bursts a Voli who has no shield or R yet — land Bear Trap and commit. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Even window: you out-trade on short W-proc trades, but his Frenzied Maul bite heals back your Q's percent-HP tick, so only go on his cooldown. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Coinflip at 6 — Stormbringer's charge, shield, and tower disable let him dive your dismounted form, but you still win clean trades when his E and W are down. |
| First item | Even / skill | Your Eclipse/Trinity spike with Bear Trap percent-HP and sheen-proc Jousting trades even with a one-item Voli if you force it on his bite cooldown. |
| Two+ items | Volibear | He out-scales hard — health stacking plus W slow-heal and Frenzied Maul lifesteal out-sustain your remount, and Stormbringer raid-bosses the side lane. |
Level 1 is his, not yours — you have no spammable poke and you want Skaarl's mount health preserved, while his W bite heals on the second cast so he wins the slow grind if you trade into it raw. Sit back, last-hit, and wait for your spike. At 2 your W shotgun shots come online, and at 3 the full re-E (E through him, W on-hit shots, recast E back) plus your free remount health bar wins the all-in clean — do it before his bite-heal scales and before Thundering Smash (Q) is up to stun you. Land Bear Trap first so he can't sidestep the dash back, and hold your commit while that 10-12s stun is available.
