Lee Sin vs Volibear

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Lee Sin is an early skirmisher who must leverage level 3 invade and river control to pressure Volibear before he can scale.
Prioritize aggressive river fights and tempo resets after successful ganks to deny Volibear free farm and objective control.

Jungle Plan

Path to invade Volibear's jungle at level 3 when lanes can move first, using (Q) and (W) for mobility and burst to force fights.
Fight for river control and first Scuttle when your lanes have priority; use (R) to disrupt Volibear's objective access.
After successful ganks, reset tempo by taking camps to maintain pressure and deny Volibear scaling opportunities.

Danger windows

Respect Volibear's level 3 full ability pattern and early river moves when he can stun and heal, avoiding isolated fights.
Be cautious around Volibear's level 6 dive threat with (R), especially near enemy towers and objectives.
Avoid forced smite fights or low-health clears where Volibear's durability and sustain give him the advantage.

Early game

Start with a clear that allows reaching level 3 quickly to threaten early invades or counter-invades against Volibear.
Contest first Scuttle only when nearby lanes have priority to avoid risky isolated fights.
Avoid low-health clears and be ready to disengage if Volibear shows early presence near river or camps.

Power spikes

At level 3, use full kit to force river duels and punish Volibear's slower clears before he resets.
At level 6, leverage (R) to isolate priority targets or deny Volibear's objective attempts, forcing fights on your terms.
Exploit Volibear's reliance on second (W) and (Q) stun by punishing him after these cooldowns are used.

Win conditions

Convert early river pressure and successful invades into dragon and Rift Herald control by denying Volibear access.
Use superior mobility and (R) displacement to create picks and force Volibear into unfavorable fights.
Maintain tempo with aggressive counter-jungling and ganks before Volibear reaches his mid-game power spikes.
