Volibear, the Thunder’s Roar
  • Rolling Thunder: Volibear drops to all fours and runs faster if chasing an enemy champion. The first enemy he attacks is knocked into the air and flung behind Volibear.
  • Frenzy: Volibear's repeated attacks grant him additional attack speed. Once Volibear has repeatedly attacked three times, he can perform a vicious bite on his target.
  • Majestic Roar: Volibear lets out a powerful roar that damages and slows enemies. Minions and monsters are feared as well.
  • Thunder Claws: Volibear channels the power of the storm causing his attacks to blast his targets with lightning that bounces to other nearby enemies.
  • Chosen of the Storm (passive): Volibear heals rapidly for a few seconds when his health drops to a critical level.

Gunna be interesting to see how the minion and hp potion nerf will affect the laning phase
 
I think with this patch its gonna do good, sivir will actually be useful. And that you can actually attack champs inlane if you're melee without the fear of losing half your HP. Caster minions OP
 
Nah Nik, just hit your W juuuust right. by the time you could afford a frozen mallet you'll be killing them fast enough with the W anyways.

Sure, the changes might make her stronger, but I don't like how they're taking away a unique trait that put her in a different category than other ranged ad champions.
 
Riot took a great big dump on Sivir.

Makes me sad, they should have not added the base stat nerfs and ricochet change.

I'm actually looking forward to these buffs, I think the nerfs are just a 'failsafe' to prevent making her OP, just in case. They can always buff her if enough people complain (I'm not saying it will actually happen though).
EDIT: Statikk is actually looking for feedback so they can make adjustments to Sivir. See this link.

I'm still iffy about the Ricochet change...


Playing her in-game will reveal what this remake has actually done.

This isn't a buff. The only skills that got buffed were the passive and Q. Slightly.

Her Ricochet is absolutely horrid right now, and her ultimate got heavily nerfed. The base attack speed nerf (all gained attack speed's effectiveness is judged by the base attack speed) is the final nail in the coffin.

I don't think the passive got a buff... I almost think of it as a nerf unless you're doing more chasing than fleeing.

Q got a giant buff from what I've seen... Especially since it doesn't scale off AP and will actually use the Armor Penetration that you have.

Besides the terrible mana cost, I'm still iffy about the Ricochet change... It can be good or bad at times.

Well... I honestly read her ultimate's AS bonus backwards (my bad). I guess I was just excited about the aurora being constant instead of an instant, on activation ability (I see this as a buff).

Her base attack speed is nearly identical to the rest of the AD carries... I don't see how that changes much.

The ultimate was not buffed, they nerfed the attack speed gain by 30%.


I just don't feel like saying how bad Sivir is right now, she was already pretty bad but here is what I would do:

Passive: Increase length of speed bonus on passive by one second.

Q: Fine as is

W: Revert to prepatch Ricochet. Since the reason for the change was players finding bouncing annoying during laning phase, make the damage decrease on bounces higher at lower ranks. (Bounces and damage of bounces increases with rank).

E: Decrease cooldown, add passive component of mana regen. 10 per 10 seconds at rank one, scaling up to 30 mana per 10 seconds at rank 5.

R: Restore attack speed amount, keep the aura function that was added.

Base stats: Add 25 more autoattack range, 525, same as Graves. Heighten base speed a bit.

This is what she needs to be a viable pick.
 
Sivir..

EDIT: never mind. She's pretty decent now. The numbers on paper are rather deceiving. Very deceiving.
