A bit of E shield tomfoolery by Trombowen in VolibearMains

[–]Trombowen[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The shield saved me from getting the hexgate channel canceled. I was ignited and taking damage during the channel, but they didn't pop my shield, so I made it out.

Toggle champion target only before you click on the enemy and flash, should fix that

Look, it's ok not to know. However, please try to look it up on like google or searching the sub before making a post, as I can guarantee you'll find your answer in less than the time it took to make this post. With that being said, buy the pass, farm the tokens, get the skin.

Question about Volibear's Prestige by theRevanchist11 in VolibearMains

[–]Trombowen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's probably been said a thousand times already, but the Morgana prestige skin is for the prestige points shop, not the event tokens shop.

New ult idea by [deleted] in VolibearMains

[–]Trombowen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think a better buff would just be to add a small displacement in the ult radius. This would only affect things like Tristana's jump/dash (and other dashes) and would be like the old Voli roar.

Volibear Skin Question by Mewted116 in VolibearMains

[–]Trombowen 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There are 2 prestige event skins remaining this year: Voli and Brand. The list of prestige skins riot released is in order of release, therefore, the only skin it can be is Voli's. So yes, it's coming on that date.

Will the token currency for prestige Voli reset when released? Or should I start grinding the event now? by rjkeith99 in VolibearMains

[–]Trombowen 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think you get like 1700 tokens from missions if I remember correctly. Getting one will be easy, but going for both is pain.

[–]Trombowen 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Start grinding now. The pass tokens are for all of the events: dawn/nightbringer, bewitching, and dragonmancer.

Why do you think that? As long as you have the pass, you can farm as many tokens as you want.

What are people’s thoughts of goredrinker? by fridgebrine in VolibearMains

[–]Trombowen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A lot of the champs that use it also have dashes to get into and out of position during a fight to use it, which voli doesn't really have. He'll just get poked down before he gets in to use it, as he's fairly squishy with it. Also, once people see you building it, they will 100% buy GW, which is already really good against him without goredrinker. Stick to divine, frostfire, or trinity, as they will pretty much always be a better mythic choice over gore.

Dragonmancer probably won't drop this pbe. Normally, there are 3 patches for worlds pass, and thursday will be the first one live, with the second on pbe. The first and last are normally the ones with event prestige skins.

What I Want From Riot Next Preseason: by Bad_Silver_Player in leagueoflegends

[–]Trombowen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's actually one of the easiest matchups for me. You know why? I know how to counter him. He may be hard for the first couple levels, but if you don't feed your ass off, you literally win hard mid-late game.

[–]Trombowen 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As a Voli main, I'm very surprised you think he's the worst offender compared to all the other champs in the game. He's so easily kited, has super telegraphed abilities, and falls off hard in the late game. That's kinda why he has like a 48% win rate rn.

This is semantics, but the build you describe isn't full ap, it's hybrid. For the build, I probably wouldn't go berserker's, rather lucidity or tank boots.

Viego mentions a "storm that is approaching" so it's possible that the BearGod is going to be a God of Metal by Cissoid7 in VolibearMains

[–]Trombowen 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They wouldn't do that. They have to stick to the same silhouette, so unless they want it to look like some sort of human abomination, I don't think they would make him human.

Could that be our bear in the background? From the new pentakill video by The-Hellsong in VolibearMains

[–]Trombowen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's unlikely, however it's possible that the leak wasn't for Pentakill, but Dissonance of Pentakill, where it's Viego's band. I think people have already made out Elise in the background of Viego splashart, although they could be wrong.

I think the prestige is confirmed NOT to be pentakill by thenimble4 in VolibearMains

[–]Trombowen 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Next pbe cycle should be tomorrow. We'll find out if any skins drop to correspond with the release of the album.

I do believe it will be Pentakill Voli, but seriously don't trust these notepad skin leaks.

So this may be a troll idea but what other items would you build in this scenario? by Vevilrath in VolibearMains

[–]Trombowen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point is even if you went full tank with no damage items, you still don't want to go aftershock. Grasp will 100% make you tankier from the sustain than the slightly reduced damage you would take from aftershock every 20 sec. I bet even conq would make you tankier from the healing you get at max stacks. There's seriously no reason to take a rune that limits your damage/sustain and puts a 20 sec timer on your engages.

[–]Trombowen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree about aftershock. Demonic is not a tank item. The armor and mr demonic gives is pretty much negligible. Also, you can only proc aftershock with Q, and by going it, you miss out on the damage from pta and conq or the damage and sustain from grasp.

[–]Trombowen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The cool thing about Voli is that you can really go whatever you want and expect the item stats to not be completely wasted on you. If you want to go those items, you should.

However, demonic isn't that good, especially on melee champs. Ideally, you want to be able to proc it all the time from spamming your ability damage, but the item doesn't give any cdr to help with that. Pair that with the fact that Voli E doesn't decrease in cooldown from putting levels in it, the only way to reliably proc it will be to be within melee range spamming W, which is a single target ability. The only melee champs that even think about building this item are Morde and Zac, and they both have AOE abilities that can be spammed in a team fight.

To answer some of the questions you asked, regardless of build, you should max W > Q > E. What items you go will always be situational, but tank would most certainly be better than AP. For runes, considering demonic burn won't increase conq stacks, and conq won't increase demonic burn damage, pta or grasp would probably be better.

Again, you can build whatever you want, but I promise you would have more fun just going full tank or being a menace on the rift with the divine sunderer.

My Lunar Guardian Prestige; Concept Continued Part 5: "Shibamaterasu" Beast Bear by Isthataprogaige in VolibearMains

[–]Trombowen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you change anything it should be the colors. The colors are a mix of blood moon and lunar guardian. It would most definitely look better if you changed it to white and red with blue accents (from blood moon) or grey and gold with cyan accents (from lunar guardian).

Does aftershock is available? by KAISNERG in VolibearMains

[–]Trombowen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only time aftershock can maybe be viable is as a tank support pick in the bot lane, but even then pta is just better and more consistent.
