How to play against Varus
To beat Varus in Bot on patch 26.20, start by knowing what you are up against: Varus is an off-meta pick this patch with a 49.8% win rate across 1,329 ranked games at a 2.3% pick rate. Varus performs consistently across game lengths, so there is no single window to wait for, win lane on fundamentals. Playing the matchup itself: If you are affected by Blight, Varus' abilities will deal extra damage to you. When he gets a kill or assist, Varus temporarily gains Attack Speed and is much more dangerous. You'll get bound in place if a tendril from Varus' ultimate, Chain of Corruption, reaches you. You can cause the tendril to die however by running far enough away from it. Pick a counter from the list above, respect Varus's power spikes, and track its cooldowns so you only commit to trades when its key abilities are down. Counter data updates automatically every patch.
