Varus

Photos of Ghosts··1 votes·229 views

Varus mid is viable right now, but his kit is still pretty bad in that you always end up giving up half of it. If you play him Q poke, you don't auto and make no use of your W's passive. If you play him ADC, using spells interrupts your DPS which is a problem lategame, so you make no use of your W's detonation. Solution:

  • move part of Q's ratio to AP
  • add an AD ratio to W's detonation as flat damage instead of percent max health
  • make Q's on-hit become an auto attack modifier so it can crit
  • make E's casting time be reduced by attack speed
  • make Q's charging time exponential, with a much faster midrange and a slower max range.

I assume you're supposed to open up/engage with your spells, and Finnish them off with your auto's. Much like Ashe.

You can't just stick to doing one thing as Varus. He is the closest approximation to a Caster Marksman in the game, and you need to multi-task.

Also, actually, casting spells in between attacks does not interrupt your DPS. Especially if you only tap-fire his Q instead of fully charging it, which is a very easy way at point blank to proc Blight stacks.

Varus has problems, but they're with his W and passive; the rest of his kit is fine.
