Hey, so I'm planning on checking out Varus when he comes out, so I kinda want to talk theory about him. Like maybe the runes to buy for a hybrid, or maybe the build that would work bst for him. I have a feeling that Nashor's Tooth may work really well with him.

Okay, so on another note, I also want to look at combos. from what I can tell, he has strong potential to get a lvl 2 kill by getting W first and poking til lvl 2 where you apply his blight then piercing arrow and get a kill.

Buy Nashor's tooth. Real good item on him from what I've seen.
AS and CDR real goot.


Thank you to jhoijhoi for the sig, and all the dividers in the guide.

yeah, he seems very similar to Teemo, only percent based damage

I'm thinking Black Cleaver + Madred's Bloodrazor, then Life steal from either Hextech Gunblade or Bloodthirster, and then tank items from there.

TBC and MB both have amazing synergy, and because of % damage that might be all he needs to build :P

gunblade is really good on him, considering he benefits from all the stats. (iirc 70 ap is enough to increase the burst of his w by 1% per stack.)

Personally I like stacking a ton of lifesteal, but that's just my opinion.

Probably something like this:

Berserker's Greaves
Bloodthirster
Madred's Bloodrazor
Hextech Gunblade
Wit's End/ Phantom Dancer/ Bloodthirster
Situational Item

If you want to get Madred's Bloodrazor, you also have to get Void Staff to make it effective. Without Void Staff the item for its cost is just not usable. And Wit's End > Madred's Bloodrazor anytime.

Where have you been living that getting Void Staff on AD's is a good idea?

That is the point of it, don't get Madred's Bloodrazor.
