Volibear vs Diana

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Volibear's fast clear and strong dueling let him contest river and force early fights when lanes have priority.
Prioritize converting early tempo into objective control and dives using Volibear's durable engage and gank threat.

Jungle Plan

Prioritize full clear and fight for first Scuttle when lanes have priority to deny Diana vision and tempo.
Track Diana's pathing and be ready to counter-gank her early ganks before her ultimate is available.
Use lane priority to set up level 6 dives with (R), focusing on lanes where your stun and sustain secure kills or objectives.

Danger windows

Respect (Q) and (E) combo burst window; avoid isolated fights when her key abilities are available.
Be cautious contesting river or objectives while Diana's ultimate is up, as she can turn fights with teamfight engage.
Avoid low-health clears or forced smite fights without vision and lane priority to reduce risk.

Early game

Full clear to hit level 3 quickly and contest first Scuttle when nearby lanes can support river fights.
Avoid direct invades if (Q) is down to prevent punishment from Diana's burst combo.
Use Volibear's dueling strength to counter-invade or punish Diana if she overextends or misses key abilities.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks full (Q)-(W)-(E) combo, enabling strong brawls; force fights when Diana lacks cooldowns.
Level 6 grants (R) for tower dives and durable engages; leverage health leads into kills or objective pressure.
First bruiser or tank item boosts sustain and dueling; pressure skirmishes and force Diana into short trades before she scales.

Win conditions

Use fast clear and early dueling to secure first Scuttle and dragon control, denying Diana tempo.
Convert lane priority and level 6 dive threat into kills or forced recalls to snowball lanes and open Herald or dragon plays.
Maintain pressure through durable brawls and objective setups to prevent Diana from safely farming and scaling into mid-game teamfights.
