"I wonder why volibear and gaten are considered unviable toplaners, while similar champions like shyvana and trundle get picked every lcs game"

Volibear isn't viable compared to Shyv because he's gated by mana costs and higher CDs, has poop base damage values, poop damage scaling, can't deal with lane shoving, and doesn't offer much besides being a pseudo-singed.

Volibear isn't viable compared to Trundle because he doesn't neuter tanky fotms the way Trundle does.
