Passive - Blighted Souls: Varus' basic attacks deal bonus magic damage and apply Blight for 6 seconds, stacking up to 3 times. Varus' other abilities detonate Blight applying bonus effects, and healing Varus slightly for each stack. Allied champions near Varus when he basic attacks are also afflicted with Blight.
Q - Piercing Arrow - First Cast: Varus charges for up to 4 seconds to gradually increase Piercing Arrow's range and damage over the next 2 seconds, during which he is pacified and slowed by 20%. Piercing Arrow is canceled when the charge ends, refunding half of the mana cost.
- Second Cast: Varus fires a piercing arrow dealing physical damage to all enemies struck, which is increased based on Channel time. Landing a fully charged arrow against an enemy champion with max Blight stacks will cause them to be tethered to the spot the arrow landed, which slows them as they attempt to walk away from the arrow, until the tether breaks.
W - Chain of Corruption: Varus flings out a Darkin chain that infects the first champion hit, tethering them to Varus for several seconds.
-
Chain of Salvation - Ally: Varus's ally gains a shield based on the Blight they had acquired while tethered. When they are at max Blight, Varus may fire an arrow from his ally's position as a ranged basic attack, consuming the stacks of Blight on his ally. Each time Varus consumes his ally's stack of Blight the duration of the tether is refreshed.
-
Chain of Damnation - Enemy: Varus's basic attacks detonates max stacks of Blight on his tethered enemy. While tethered, detonating max stacks of Blight dealing magic damage based on the target's missing health. Each time the max stack of Blight on the tethered enemy is detonated, the duration of this tether is refreshed.
E - Hail of Arrows: Varus fires a hail of arrows that deals physical damage on impact to all enemies in the target area. The area is desecrated for 4 seconds, slowing all enemies standing in it. Enemies with max stacks detonated are also grounded and afflicted with Grievous Wounds for a few seconds.
R - What Burns Brighter; Love or Hate? - First Cast: You decide to side with the love struggling with Varus, or his unyielding lust for vengeance.
-
I Am Varus - Second Cast: Varus either assumes his true Darkin form, or Valmer and Kai take control revealing a godly form. For 10 seconds Varus gains bonus attack range and restoration from all sources of healing, and whenever an enemy has their max stack of Blight detonated they are briefly slowed and disarmed.
-
If Varus is in control he will automatically tether Chains of Damnation to all enemy champions within range.
-
If Valmer and Kai are in control they will automatically tether Chains of Salvation to all allied champions in range.
