Armor Piercing Varus is actually quite ok Might slightly differ depending on the enemy team comp, but Black Cleaver is ok As long as he doesn't go AP

Armor pen and CDR are both really good stats on varus, though I will say that he doesn't get the most benefit from BC passive compared to other ADCs. Other than that, it's a pretty normal build: lots of attack speed to get as many W procs as possible.

Cleaver was his last item... shyv into bort into ruby then cleaver... was most interesting scene

imo

or Pick axe into zypher " SITUATIONAL "

Botlane went 4/13 he probably didn't have the gold to play it another way. If you want to talk about an interesting scene we have a fed enemy ADC but the toplaner, the guy meant to go tanky in most cases, built a SV. I don't know how somebody gets to mid gold and then doesn't know how to flex pick based on the situation going SV because it boosts oranges when the lane that'd normally have the AP damage won lane on his team (midlane) and the lane with all the AD damage lost lane (botlane, ADC). What is an Orange going to do against a 6 kill ADC?

I've seen this nomenclature before. an orange item here referring to the statik shiv right? i've also heard about blue ez etc.... what do the various colors mean?

Yes definitely. GP buys a SV to buff is SS which he starts the game with as his second hidden passive as long as you have at least 1 crit chance rune.

AMYS GRAVEJan 9, 20151 votes

is there any significance to calling it "orange" though? do all "orange" items share something in common?

they're taking about Remove Scurvy. it's commonly referred to as oranges because GP eats oranges when he uses it

item 3134 is almost core on Varus .

That said, that build is unwise. Much better to buy item 3142 than item 3071 , and item 3031 is absolutely must have.

Opened my eyes wide... i never thot to actually put a gins on him

Varus likes to AA multiple times to stack is W passive before setting it off. BC stacks armor shred multiple times making his AAs hurt more and more until he sets his W passive off. He's an ADC he likes AD he like Apen, he's immobile he can't complain about a bit of extra HP. I don't see the problem.

Try building him exactly like Jayce

AtheosisXJan 9, 20151 votes

Not a standard build but I wouldn't say it's terrible.

Varus can absolutely succeed with a build like that. Though I'd have suggested item 3085 . That way he spreads Blight to the entire enemy team and can pop it on them all when he hits a Q or an E.

He's effectively built as an AD caster. I see a lot of Yoummu, Essence Reaver, Ionians builds from Varus players and they tend to do better than the players who build him strictly as an IE/shiv auto attacker.
