Camille Win Condition

Your core win condition is surviving the early game and out-scaling him. This is achieved by taking Grasp of the Undying, which allows you to utilize powerful Resolve runes and sustain through his poke. After completing Triforce, you can "easily just kick him around" in side lane duels. You win later by focusing on avoiding his engage and using your ultimate (R) to dodge his ultimate.

Volibear Win Condition

Volibear wins if he hits hisVolibear EE (The Relentless Storm) on you, instantly resulting in a lost trade. He also wins if he hits Level 6 first, enabling him to use his ultimate to dive Camille under the turret, disabling the tower damage. Furthermore, Volibear generally wins extended trades in the side lane if he is the one who initiates the fight.

General Strategy

You must play smart using Grasp procs, your passive shield, and Camille WW, always aiming for maximum value. You must respect his Level 6 powerspike immensely, especially if he hits it before you, as he can dive you for a guaranteed kill. After your first back, you must rush Triforce and then Death's Dance to secure a huge two-item spike, avoiding a Tiamat rush to accelerate this spike. In team fights, Volibear is too tanky, so Camille should focus on killing other threats.

Trading Patterns

Start Camille WW and use it to clear the first three creeps. Use W to maintain Grasp stacks or heal up, ensuring you hit Volibear or minions to maximize value. Never engage if he has already used hisVolibear WW (Frenzied Maul) on you.

You should only look to engage if he misses hisVolibear EE. If he tries to dive you at Level 6, you must Ult his ultimate. In later duels, you should be the one engaging and kiting around, using Grasp to heal and Ult to dodge his ultimate.

Wave Management

You must Camille WW the first three minions to gain early lane priority. The build path is crucial: start Doran's Blade, get an early Cull item (to pay for itself), and then rush Triforce, skipping Tiamat initially. The intention is to finish Triforce and Death's Dance quickly to get Camille "online" by the 20-minute mark.
