ABOUT ME

Hey, my names Stin and as you can probably tell my favorite adc to play is . I have been casually playing League of Legends for over 10 years now and was the first ever adc I took to the rift. Now I think its time I use some of my varus knowledge to try and help out any new players wanting to try out Varus!

in my opinion is one of the more fun designed adc's within league and has a high skill expression based on the different builds you go. Luckily the state of League also has varus in a pretty good spot in which he has plenty of item options to optimize his carry potential.

I also have been streaming gameplay at Twitch.tv/ItsStin and as we head into the next season of League of Legends, I plan to update this guide if any massive changes are made for season start.
