For anyone who didn't know, there was a Varus AMA on reddit
[AMA] We're the Rioters behind the update to Varus and the Retribution story arc. Ask us anything about his new narrative! * r/VarusMains
Maybe that's where you will find most of the answers to your questions. Honestly don;t know why they did not start a Q & A here. You can't just disregard the fans here on the boards.
