Q (Thundering Smash) speeds you up and the first auto stuns — run toward the enemy and auto for the stun.
R (Stormbringer) makes you leap and disables towers — use it to dive under tower safely.
W (Frenzied Maul) deals more damage and heals on the 2nd activation (marked target) — hit W twice for sustain.
E (Sky Splitter) creates a zone that shields you if you're on it when it hits — cast it ahead of time and position on top of it.

Playing against Volibear
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
His Q stun can be stopped by CC (knockback, stun) during his charge — interrupt him before he reaches you.
Kite him: Volibear is fast with Q but has no real gap-close after.
His R disables towers temporarily: don't rely on the tower to save you when he dives.
Grievous Wounds reduces his W heal which is his sustain in extended trades.
