@Anon 1&3: Thanks! I'm still working on it as time goes, so adjustments will happen.

@Anon 2: Because lategame the damage (thanks to ult) becomes more hybridized, I'm not as much a fan of 9/x/x on Volibear, just because of how rough his initial clear can be taking q at level 2 (which is a matter of preference mentioned in the guide; you get it whenever you want to gank which is as soon as possible for me). Honor guard IS not that useful, though, so the point's taken.

Frozen Mallet is a situational item at best, actually. The slow tends to be redundant in most cases, since if you can hit them once you can get the flip. Since in terms of health, Warmog's is just way more cost-efficient and with atma's and/or w you scale with health, I find frozen mallet isn't a common pick.

I prefer Spark just because it's health/AS, and because it makes farming (a major weak point otherwise) much much easier. As you said, though, that's a matter of preference.
