Varus ability discussion

Having mobility in an adc's kit is almost essential at this point. Seeing as Varus lacks one, I was thinking maybe changing one of his other abilities could make his kit work better. I find his current E kind of lackluster, and was thinking that since his theme revolves around a symbiote-type weapon, that a cool new ability would be a ranged-tentacle-grab/escape thingy. He could use this as a sort of Nautilus Q, maybe shorter range, and maybe doesnt require terrain to grab. Any thoughts? or does everyone love his current E?

Ever play Dota 2? Windrunner can pin players to each other, or to trees (some type of bola or binding shot, I can't remember). It's pretty sweet when used correctly, and is basically a more fine tuned and simpler version of Varus' Ultimate.

It's already a part of his kit, so I think they could weasle it into another ability.

The problem with changing his E to be some kind of conditional mobility thing is that he really needs E to be a way to proc his blight stacks.

If you're going to look to add a new skill to his kit, probably you want to make a W active. Possibly you'd move the blight stacks over to his passive and cut the AS steroid passive to get the kit budget for it.
