Why would you get blight first? It is basically useless unless you can activate it, which you can't do at level one. Maxing "W" is great, but you need to get "Q" first. This allows you to poke at level one instead of just AA.
Dear MrTexan,
thanks for asking. It made me think much about it, but i think i have come to a conclusion:
I get it first, because im playing mid mosten.
Mid is a solo lane, so after 7-8 minions (depending on EXP Runes/Boost) you will be level 2. This are 1 minion wave + another 2 minions from the next wave. I concentrate first on lasthitting, which is much easyer with "W". I get some stacks and some (more) damage trough "W" on my enemys and more/easyer lasthits, wich is a good point i think. I play very defensiv till the second minion wave. When i leveled up, i can almost upgrade my "Q" and fire it, dealing some bonus damage. Some other points about this are my way of playing varus a little bit hybrid, so the bonus attackdamage is bigger than without ap, and that other people in games think im "first time Varus". Besides, without bonus mana, you can cast "Q" only 4 times in a row (its after midnight, dont want to calculate the manaregen and so on, but i think you know what i mean). So my oppinion is, that a free passive which dont slow you and is possibly failing and getting really awesome at level 2 is better than a strong skillshot, you can use 4 times before beeing out of mana and even beeing able to miss.
And by the way, remember: you want to charge it to full damage, before fireing it as long as there are no stacks of blight. and if the enemy expects the arrown, he can dodge it easyly.
:o that was a long text. I hope you can understand why i chose i first. PM me if you want to discuss further about it, im open for every critismn. Tell me if you think i should add those informations to my guid.
