I would prefer ad caster varus

Yeah i also enjoyed when Varus was a walking Q bot instead of using his entire kit like currently

Yeah I agree, is not suppose to be 2.0.

I wish he would get a rework or something that would make him as cool as he sounds in lore, he's the first champion I ever played and the only champion that I like most.

No, no, no, no. The meta was absolutely atrocious when you couldn't play anything but lethality jhin and varus. Varus blasting you for half your hp from quite literally off screen with max range arrows is not fun, and the only 'counterplay' were flanks or flash long range engages, and even then in most elos people couldn't pull that off.

At least with the on-hit build he has to maintain a reasonable range to be engaged on or killed by assassins and whatever else. This is much better than how it was a few metas ago.
