Vayne vs Volibear Matchup Summary

The Vayne vs Volibear matchup is a very close matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 35 recent matches analyzed, Vayne wins with a 51.4% win rate compared to Volibear's 48.6%, giving Vayne a 2.9 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Vayne controls the early laning stage, but Volibear outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Vayne needs to press advantages before Volibear reaches their power spikes, while Volibear should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in sustain, where Volibear leads by 809 HP/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Vayne has a statistical edge, but the margin is close enough that respecting Volibear's strengths is important. Trade when cooldowns are favorable, track the enemy jungler, and build toward your strongest item spikes to convert the slight advantage into a decisive lead. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Vayne dominates the early game (first 15 minutes) with a commanding 66.7% win rate — a 33.3 percentage point lead over Volibear. This lopsided early game means Vayne can dictate the pace of the lane from level 1, controlling trades, wave state, and river priority.

Volibear is far superior in the late game (25+ minutes), boasting a 60.0% win rate — 20.0 points above Vayne. Extended games heavily favor Volibear, whose kit and scaling make them a dominant force in team fights and objective control.

If Volibear survives the laning phase without falling too far behind, the matchup flips in their favor. Dragon and Rift Herald control are pivotal — the team that secures early objectives can snowball or buy time to scale.
