Volibear

Bel'Veth out-paces Volibear in a jungle skirmish — Endless Banquet stacking and Royal Maelstrom damage reduction blunt the Q stun plus double-W trade pattern before Frenzied Maul (W) can heal it back

Darius wins extended trades because every auto and Decimate (Q) applies Hemorrhage (P) stacks. Thundering Smash (Q) stun gets interrupted by Apprehend (E) pull, and Noxian Guillotine (R) executes in the 5-stack window before Stormbringer (R) jump triggers.

Fiora's Riposte (W) parries Thundering Smash's stunning auto and stuns Volibear back instead. Her Duelist's Dance Vitals deal true damage (damage that ignores Armor and Magic Resist — no defensive stat reduces it), so Volibear's tank stack does nothing in the 1v1.

Jax's Counter Strike (E) dodges every basic attack for 2 seconds, including the stunning auto that ends Volibear's Q. Q resolves with no stun, no damage, and Counter Strike then stuns Volibear and everyone around him.

Lee Sin's Safeguard (W first cast) is a self-dash to an ally or ward — he leaves attack range before the Thundering Smash (Q) stunning auto can land, so it whiffs. Dragon's Rage (R) kicks Volibear backwards out of his own follow-up range during the early skirmish window 3-6.

Nasus only loses lane when he is poked from range — Volibear has to walk into Siphoning Strike (Q) range to do Thundering Smash (Q) damage. Nasus gets free stacks every wave while Wither (W) keeps Volibear slowed off Sky Splitter (E) plus Stormbringer (R) all-in.

Nocturne's Shroud of Darkness (W) is a spell shield that eats Thundering Smash's crowd control component, so the Q window closes with no stun.

Quinn Vault (E) knockback resets her behind Volibear before the Thundering Smash (Q) stunning auto lands, denying the engage. Blinding Assault (Q) blanks the empowered auto and Heightened Senses (W) attack speed kites the Frenzied Maul (W) bite window in extended lane trades.

Shaco's Deceive (Q) is a stealth blink, so Thundering Smash (Q) runs out with nobody to stun. Hallucinate (R) then doubles the silhouettes and Stormbringer (R) lands on a spot, not on a champion, so half the time the sweet spot drops on the clone.

Talon out-roams and out-bursts Voli pre-6 — Shadow Assault stealth bypasses Q stun lock and Rake slow keeps Voli out of W bite range

Frenzied Maul (W) is an empowered attack whose bigger second hit only lands if the first one does. Blinding Dart (Q) makes it miss, Relentless Storm attack-speed stacks fall off while he hits nothing, and Thundering Smash (Q) is too slow to catch Teemo kiting on Move Quick (W).

Frenzied Maul (W) only works in melee, and Stormbringer (R) is a committed leap with no way back. Pillar of Ice (E) walls Volibear off the wave, Chomp (Q) keeps shaving his Attack Damage, and Conqueror keeps Trundle healing through the long fight.

Volibear has no disengage and Stormbringer R leap commits him with no return ability. Udyr's stance dance Wilding Claw Q triple-hit plus Blazing Stampede E stun out-DPS Frenzied Maul W bite, Iron Mantle W shield resets every 6 seconds outlasting his combo windows.

Vayne Condemn (E) knocks Volibear out of attack range before the Thundering Smash (Q) stun auto lands, and pins him to terrain instead. Silver Bolts (W) true damage cuts through his Overgrowth health, and the Final Hour (R) invisibility makes Sky Splitter (E) a guess.
