Volibear Item Build
Volibear folds attack speed into an otherwise standard tank build, and the reason is Relentless Storm: the longer he keeps swinging in one endless fight, the faster he attacks, until his hits eventually spill magic damage onto everyone nearby. Each extra second locked in makes Frenzied Maul bite and heal for more, and with no fountain run to reset his health, that ramping self-sustain is what keeps the durability diving instead of retreating.
Best Volibear Runes
Grasp of the Undying rewards the all-in aggression Volibear brings to the Abyss, where he dives the packed team and simply refuses to die. Frenzied Maul heals him through the endless 5v5, Sky Splitter shields him as he lands, and Stormbringer leaps his whole bulk onto the clump from range. Build the durability that keeps him swinging deep in the pile.

Volibear Skill Order
Sky Splitter's shield is tied to 11 percent of maximum health on the Abyss, so it grows off items rather than points and stays parked until 14. Frenzied Maul takes 4, 5, 7 and 9 for the recast heal, and Thundering Smash scales from 8.
Volibear ARAM Abilities
Sky Splitter is the overlooked one, a lightning bolt that slows and, if he stands in his own blast, shields him on the way in. The Relentless Storm eventually stops being just attack speed, adding bonus magic damage that splashes to nearby enemies once it ramps.
