AP/Hybrid Varus - Mid/Bot

By LBDB
Apologies and pinions on items changed

Hi, I am LBDB and I would like to apologize on taking so long to update this guide. I had to take a short break and work on myself but I am back and will try to keep this updated with the upcoming season. After coming back and using this build in my solo queue games in pisslow Gold I have had my views on items such as Riftmaker and had to rethink my builds. Thank you for checking out this guide and I wish you luck in your games.

Mid/ bot kill

AP Varus has only two note-worthy abilities. His W Blighted Quiver and his R Chain of Corrution. His W is the key to the enitire playstyle with it's passive. Every auto attack will deal bonus magic damage, scaling with ability level and 35% of total AP, and apply a stack of Blight for 6 seconds up to a max of three stacks. The blight stacks all detonate when hitting any other damaging ability, when popped the stacks deal magic damage equaling to a percentage of the enemy's max health, and lowering the cooldown of basic abilities by 12% per stack of blight popped.

Heavy cc

You will mostly be farming in both mid and bot for the first few minutes and levels. You don't want to fight level 1 but you do want to poke if you brought manaflow. You can start fighting or trading from level two on since you have a surprising amount of damage with your W passive pops. Level 3 through 5 is the same as 2. Level 6 is where you want to take a fight against most every single champ in the game since your can likely kill with full combo.

Losing lane or mid

It is simple execution. You auto attack three times then hit an ability. Rinse and repeat. If you want to kill level 6 then the combo goes: AA X3, R , AA, E , AA until 3 stacks of W, Press W , Tap Q

Bot usual

Thank you for taking the time to read my comprehensive guide on AP Varus. If you have any suggestions on how to make this guide more appealing pls tell me in the comments. Have a good day.
