W - Transferal of Life: Var'Dul creates an area of corruption, dealing damage over time to enemies and healing himself and all allied champions in a 650 area around himself for a portion of the damage dealt.

R - Transferal of Force: Var'Dul connects himself to an allied or enemy champion. If the champion is an ally, their movement speeds are added to each others'; this is added after any slows.

Tips:

As Var'Dul: -If you are supporting as Var'rul, remember that he is heavily reliant on poking the enemy, and make use of his abilities to heal your partner in the lane when you have achieved enough critical strikes. Grabbing a Relic Shield could help you to refrain from stealing creep score while still gathering Essentia. -If you are playing as a Marksman, remember that critical strikes give you access to your abilities, so you may want to build into it. Additionally, make sure you know how much each ability will cost, so you don't run out of Essentia at a critical moment.

Fighting Var'Dul: -While Var'Dul's healing capability is powerful, keep an eye out for his Transferral of Injury, and attack while it is on cooldown. -Though Var'Dul can cast Transferral of Life often, it does not deal a large amount of damage, especially if he is building into Ability Power. Move out of the areas quickly to prevent him from healing his allies. -When Var'Dul casts Transferral of Injury on an ally, he uses some of his own HP. Capitalize on this by pushing him away from your minion waves, reducing the effectiveness of Transferral of Life, and attacking both enemy champions to make it a gamble to help his ally over himself.
