His passive is borderline useless and his ult is extremely hard to hit considering what you gain from a hit, those are the two things that I think need the most immediate attention.

That said I wouldn't call him weak, he definitely isn't a top tier champion but he is somewhere in the middle ground and you can still do very well with him. (still my favorite champion to play)

ohh he is on the bottom list as far as adcs are conscerned. people will still write well u can poke .... big fckn whoop. high cds high mana cost low aa range.

Have you tried a different build path such as building cooldown in either a crit focused build with bloothirster (the mana regain one) or an onhit with bork rageblade black clever and runaans. Both significantly allow his cds to be managed as an adc or if your going for mid lane assassin varus the black clever manamune is still very good for making your q steal objectives and one shit a squishy target. Varus is my best adc by far. I've been playing him for 3 seasons now.

yes and he cant make use of any of the keystones very well. His on hit build to me was by far hi strongest form of build. With the change in the fervor of battle/nerf , this weakens him, now with the change in the lethality this weakens his caster build due to the fact his q will not do that much damage, however with the change in items he is unable to utilize them very well or at all(duskblade). He is the only adc i honestly liek to use due to the fact his ap hybrid power

I gotta say, I think thunder lords is perfect for Varus. His early game damage really comes out by two autos and a q anyways, so it only helps that case. If you are just going Q poke Varus though I suppose it would be less useful.

exactly none of the keystones really do him any good. he doesnt have the kite for warlords, i mean it works however i find it to work if you run lifesteal runes and items

Actually varus beats out over half of all adc's in terms of range and he has the 3rd highest range of all adc's if you don't count abilities/passives.

He is solidly in the middle of the road as far as adc's go, I would argue that he is borderline tier 1 if you actually make good use of his w.

khorneyNov 24, 20161 votes

you have to count abilities and passives.

UberAffeNov 26, 20161 votes

even counting those his is still above the average

khorneyNov 26, 20161 votes

???, ummm... i honestly have ZERO idea how you came up with that. that's like saying "grass is purple"... just.. no... you're wrong.

the hitbox of her spearused to be bigger before her rework (release nidalee to patch 4.9)... it had a 60 width pre-rework, patch 4.10 the halfed it to 30 width, and in 4.11 the increased it to 40 width, where it has been ever since.

since 4.11, with her 40 width spear, her win-rate has had no correlation to her spear width, in any way shape or form.
