| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Volibear's Q needs ramp so the opening is an even skill trade. |
| Level 2 | Wukong | Level 2 is your burst window with Crushing Blow while his Q is down. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Level 3 evens out as his Maul sustain begins to come online. |
| Levels 4-5 | Volibear | Levels 4-5 his heal and diving stats out-trade you, favouring Volibear. |
| Level 6 | Volibear | Level 6 Stormbringer's health and turret disable spike his all-in, favouring him. |
| First item | Wukong | With your first item and R you out-manoeuvre his engage, tipping it to you. |
| Two+ items | Wukong | Late game your displacement cancels his leap and peels his dives, favouring you. |
The opening is a skill trade: Volibear's Q needs ramp distance to stun, so if you respect it you can farm even, and your Level 2 spike with Crushing Blow plus Nimbus Strike gives you a real burst window while his Q is on cooldown. Don't let him build Q speed and run you into a wall.
