Read from Volibear's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Tryndamere.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Volibear | Level 1 is yours: your passive attack speed and W stacking beat his damage-only early autos. |
| Level 2 | Volibear | Level 2 stays Volibear as Frenzied Maul sustain wins the extended trade over his weak Bloodlust heal. |
| Level 3 | Volibear | Level 3 is yours with full Q-W-E to kite and out-sustain him. |
| Levels 4-5 | Volibear | Levels 4-5 remain yours before his crit and Fury scaling come online. |
| Level 6 | Volibear | Level 6 still favours you: your all-in threatens him even though Undying Rage complicates the kill. |
| First item | Tryndamere | First item flips to Tryndamere: crit plus Bloodlust healing lets him out-DPS you and survive with his ult. |
| Two+ items | Tryndamere | Two items in he is an unkillable splitpusher, so the late edge is Tryndamere's. |
You own the early levels: Frenzied Maul stacking and passive attack speed out-trade his weak pre-crit autos while his Bloodlust healing is thin.
