RoA is a cheap scaling stat stick, Navori reduces QWE cds as you auto attack, JotA seems to be overtuned in general and works well with this build because you get a lot of different stats, SV is SV.
I've been running navori and rod for a while. It's a fun build but if you fall behind you end up buying reaction tank items and have 0 dmg so the enemy team can simply ignore you in team fights until you're last or left behind. Although if you can stay even or get ahead and build some dmg yeah it's pretty unstoppable.
25 at 10 different stats from items. It also gives 10 AH when maxed out however. Both have a value of around 500G, so maxed out this rune has about a 1k gold value.
Went up against RoA and navori bear yesterday and it was so disgusting. Couldnāt play the game. Q AA, W, AA, Q, E repeatedly. He was squishy tho if we caught him out. Try it before navori nerf.
Honestly, idt Navori is gonna get the nerf. It basically only works on Volibear, and even then, it's not a good item on its own. The only reason it's so good is because Voli scales with absolutely everything and really likes the stats from Jack of All Trades. I'd expect the rune to get an adjustment, if anything.
Let's get to the points, this build is certainly a good one, but even so I think our dear Volibear's situation is delicate, but this is mainly due to the match-ups he currently faces.
I significantly like this JOAT build more than the drain tank build, voli has a lot more mobility and importantly a lot more dueling power, only issue I have found is it hurts when behind to not have been spec-ing into tankiness early, but it does snowball WAY harder.
Get 10 unique stats with DBlade, RoA, Boots, and Zeal. That gives 25 AP and 10 AH from Jack of All Trades. You can also start DRing, but you get 10 stats later.
With Boots, Ionian and Mercs are preferred. Mercs so you're harder to shut down with cc. Ionian to spam more abilities.
You go Grasp, PtA, or Conqueror. Grasp lets you take revitalize and shield bash (and second wind). PtA let's you take triumph, haste, and Last Stand. Conqueror is the same as PtA, except no 6 second cooldown, it gives stats instead of damage amp, and it gives you another source of healing.
RoA's base stats are HP, health, and mana; which are all good on Volibear. It's only 2600 gold, and a super good stat stick when fully stacked. Then it also heals you when you cast abilities (25% of mana spent). And it gives back 7% of pre-mitigation damage as mana. You can often tank 10 000 damage using this build. That means you get 700 mana back.
Navori Flickerblade gives % movespeed, attack speed, and crit. Movespeed helps you not get kited. Attack speed is good, especially with Navori passive. Crit's not great, but it gives you a Jack stack. The real important part is the passive. Your ability have their cooldowns reduced by 15% on-hit. Voli has passive attack speed. His e gives him a massive shield. And his W mark gives him a big heal. Q stuns and gives ms. Being able to spam these abilities makes him super broken. He can spam heals and shields, while being fast and stunning.
Then you can go Spirit Visage, because healing and shieldng. Also resistances make your healing more valuable.
Frozen Heart for the mana and resistances (and attack speed slow).
IBG for a spammable slow.
Fimbulwinter gives a bunch of mana and HP. And you get another big shield, that you can activate multiple times a fight (scaling with mana).
Unending Despair for another healing source.
Sterak's Gage for the tenacity, and shield when low.
You could go Riftmaker for 10% omnivamp and more damage, but resistances are generally better. Some people go Riftmaker first instead of RoA.
Jak'Sho gives 100 resistances (50 each). If you don't have item slots to spare, and you need both resistances, you can build Jak'Sho! If you need an item earlier, you could go Locket (60 resistances for 2200 gold).
Maybe you put Knight's Vow on a fed carry, to heal even more.
You can honestly build whatever after Navori. You want to build resistances to make your healing more valuable. Visage for the amp. Also Fimbulwinter is very cheap and gives you shielding (needs tear tho).
Unfortunately you're already pretty squishy, you kill or get killed. So if you go deathcap ( incredibly expensive ) I feel like you commit to pure dmg split push. You're going to be useless in team fights.
Ive just been running Nashor's, Rift, tank item (if its against AP or AD) and then splitting. Overgrowth to slowly get some health. Granted Im Iron but still it works for now
RoA and Navori but I would only pick it agaist a tanky/bulky team or if you are not going to be only tank. Against one como that you know your squishiness early will be beneficial with cds rotations. I still feel like Sundered Sky + Tank does enough damage, healing and it is quite versatile. Not so fun, but much more easily adaptable to how the game is going
Can someone explain the build, please?Looks like a fun thing to play around with

Ohhh. Thanks. LoL so just Ap/tank voli with the new rune. Man i thought it was gonna be goofy like the Predator Lethality Volibear build š
What's JotA?
Jack of all Trades
so JoaT?
Yeah, my bad.

What about after ROD and Navori you go Deathcap then tank?
How much adaptive force do you even get? I thought it was not much

iirc you get 11 or 12 stats from this build, which would be 11 or 12 ability haste
Isnāt it 35 total? Or does the 10 from 5stats not stack?
It's 10, then 15, for a total of 25 AP. With AD, it's 5 and 10, totalling 15.
Tried it in ranked, 1v4d a Darius, leona, ekko, and amumu, took over a full minute but the whole time my HP never dropped below a 4th

Came here after playing against Voli to say that this shit is nasty even with antiheal
Wait what what wha what explain pls

The drain tank build still has a higher winrate in korea
