Tips & Tricks

  • 1.Apply three W (Blighted Quiver) stacks then detonate with Q or E for massive %HP magic damage.
  • 2.R (Chain of Corruption) is a powerful engage tool; the tendrils spread to nearby enemies.
  • 3.Fully charged Q (Piercing Arrow) from fog of war chunks squishies — use it to poke before fights.
  • 4.E (Hail of Arrows) applies Grievous Wounds and slows; use it to zone enemies in teamfights.
  • 5.Varus has no mobility; position carefully and save R defensively against divers if needed.
