How it works

General

  1. You build 100% crit, lots of AD and some attack speed.
  2. You play as carry for your team

How to play

General

  1. Varus ADC build with 100% crit. You go AD, Attack Speed and of course... Crit!
  2. Usually Statikk Shiv is good first item
  3. Don't rush Infinity Edge. Usually go for it as #2 or #3 item.
  4. Counter enemy team. If they have lots of tanks or start stacking Armor, rush Lord Dominik's Regards.

Tips and Tricks

Champion

  1. You can Chain of Corruption (R), then Flash to catch unsuspecting enemies and to engage fights! It works forward, backward and sideways.
  2. You can start casting Piercing Arrow (Q) and Flash during casting to reach enemies that are super far away.

Riot

  1. An early point in Blighted Quiver helps harass enemy champions and get killing blows on minions.
  2. During short range fights it's sometimes best to fire Piercing Arrow quickly, rather than charging it to full power.
  3. Try to take advantage of Piercing Arrow's very long range to snipe at enemy champions before a fight or as they're trying to flee.
