Guide to Synergizing Vel'Koz and Volibear

Tips for Playing as Vel'Koz with Volibear

Be very careful about when to use Life Form Disintegration Ray. Many champions have abilities that can interrupt the spell.

Shooting Plasma Fission diagonally and splitting at maximum range allows you to hit opponents that are out of the range of the initial missile, but is more challenging to pull off.

When laning, use Void Rift to kill minions while building stacks of Organic Deconstruction on your opponent. You can then follow up with your other abilities.
