How to win lane as Volibear against Mordekaiser · 53.89% win rate over 2,006 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Volibear | Level 1 is yours — you out-brawl Morde before his kit and passive come online. |
| Level 2 | Volibear | Level 2 stays yours as W's heal beats his Q Obliterate poke in trades. |
| Level 3 | Volibear | Level 3 favours you: full combo all-in wins while his sustain is weak. |
| Levels 4-5 | Volibear | Level 4-5 remains yours since you out-heal and out-damage his early poke. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 6 is even — his R isolation trades off against your Q stun, a coin-flip. |
| First item | Even / skill | First item is a toss-up as Riftmaker sustain and his shield blunt your burst. |
| Two+ items | Mordekaiser | At 2+ items Mordekaiser out-scales you — R isolates and his sustain wins the duel. |
You own the early lane. Before Mordekaiser has his full kit, your Q Thundering Smash stun and the sustain from W Frenzied Maul beat his Q Obliterate poke — trade every time his Q is down and you'll out-heal and out-damage him. Deny his passive Darkness Rise stacks by not letting him free-cast on the wave, and build a lead before his ult comes online.
