Tips Against Varus in Adc Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
Devilbuny says “Tu mogą być kłopoty. Varus może cię ładnie kitować, spowolnić z E i złapać w R a potem dostajesz bombe. Jeśli wiesz co robisz i dobrze korzystasz z pasywki, nie masz co się bać zbytnio. Bardziej tu decyduje support”

EdenHoangKim says “Lethality Varus is a little bit annoying. Try to all-in with him, don't let him poke you.
On-hit and AP varus is not too much a threat, but make sure to take cleanse or you're gonna be struggle with him.”
0
Avxm says “Lethality varus heavily counters kogmaw, and you should treat that matchup like the ezreal matchup so refer to that. Onhit varus however is a skill matchup, you should win 100%hp all ins however below this hp threshhold is less ideal. Not much to say about this matchup other then only take good trades and dont get poked out too easily, and if he has an engage sup do not get engaged on as varus even onhit varus is a strong earlygame bully however its not as bad as like a kalista/draven early all in so just play smart.”

Kociokwik says “you win before 6 but afyer that you have to dodge his r or you die. Karthus outscales so don't take shity fights.”
0
Latte9969 says “Varus has a low auto attack range but his Q range is very high, when you see him charging it try to move a lot to make it harder for him to hit and then abuse his range disadvantage when it's on cooldown. Take cleanse for his ult and instantly cleanse + E when it hits so he can't burst you down. If you don't have cleanse up, it can be extremely hard to react to his ult with E so it's best to stay out of it's range.”
0
Foxirion says “Varus's poke and chain of corruption can make him a major threat to Kog'Maw. His ability to snipe targets with Piercing Arrow, apply blight stacks, and root multiple enemies with Chain of Corruption can pressure Kog'Maw in team fights.”
0
9Pypciu9 says “Just OP take cleanse and pray.
Winning lane is possible but u have to dominate early with engage support”
0
afr0rk says “Pretty Even matchup. If he's building lethality, jump on him if he misses a spell, he is extremely spell reliant. If he's going on hit, play it slow and poke him from range. If he's going AP, it's similar to lethality. Consider buying early boots if he's building lethality, as his raw spells hurt a lot even without blight applied.”

loaderdragon15 says “Varus can match Ezreal's poke with his own long-range abilities and has the ability to lock him down with his ultimate, Chain of Corruption, making it easier for his team to follow up and secure a kill.”
0
fuckingrathatxdd says “With some supports it can get REALLY fucking problematic but it's still doable. Cleanse can be taken here.
Threats n' Tips: Dodge Q and R if possible. If he has no E and R he's practically a sitting duck.”
0
Bobalegre says “He has long cooldowns early, try to dodge his poke and stay out of his AA range. Be careful with his ultimate, if you do not guarantee being able to dodge it I recommend taking cleanse. Poke him down and try to trade without letting he proc his W passive.”
0
Vapora Dark says “Comet/Lethality Varus: 80% of his damage will come from spamming his abilities way outside of your range, leaving you no room for retaliation. Can be manageable if you have a hook support, otherwise he'll be impossible to ignore but impossible to address.”
0
mcdnldsmngrxdd says “Varus is going to be 1 of your hardest ADC matchups. It requires you to play completely differently to even match him, combined with the fact a good majority of the support matchups paired with him makes this matchup extremely sharp. He'll usually start E level 1, careful taking unnecessary damage from this, Don't stand in the wave so you don't get minion blocked, have him pick either to push the wave or to poke you, no need to give him both. Survive laning until you've managed to get an item or 2 and you have a decent amount of passive stacks under your belt. Look for an engage by having cleanse and or flash up. If he R's and still has flash, cleanse and force his flash. If he R's and doesn't have flash if you're feeling lucky you can flash over it. After you do this it's pretty much a free kill if support doesn't interfere.”

Dove666 says “"Varus is an incredibly underrated champion. To be honest, when played well, he doesn't have losing matchups. He can even outdamage Draven. The main advice would be to avoid his Q and focus on taking as many minions as possible. It all depends on the skill level of the Varus player; an inexperienced player can be easily dominated in lane through effective wave management, or just better trades.”

Aspect of Cancer says “It's becomes more of who can land their Q's more than the other contest.”
0
NegativePhoenix says “Varus has become a problem this season. Though not the most powerful, he can one shot with basically any build he decides so there's no real way to get around him.
Take cleanse and hope he doesn't get snowballed to hell or he can just one shot anyone on your team no matter how tanky they are”

Leaf no Kitsune says “due to his range advantage be a little bit careful so he doesn't abuse it. in all ins flash his ult/q.”
0
Lewozu says “Not that hard to be honest.
You want cleanse vs Varus 80% of the time.
Dont forget to use your E 2-3 seconds in to the fight as he will most likely try to Charge a Q.”

iiExploit says “Now if I had a dollar for every time I said I won lane versus a varus I would have like 10 dollars but considering how many games I've played that's not many. You're honestly hoping to go even with him which you can do by just farming it out and dodging his skills. If you have an engage support that can get on him, he's very easy to kill but if he spaces well and hits his skillshots, he is very oppressive. Especially when paired with a poke support.”
0
mydesires says “Dodging is the key to win since all of his skills are projectile. Make sure you take Cleanse spell with you or let your support build Mikael's Blessing to cleanse his ult. // TH : หลบเท่านั้นที่ครองโลก เอาสเปล Cleanse ไปหรือให้ซัพพอร์ตออกของลบดีบัฟให้จะได้ไม่โดนอัลติวารัสจับ”

Paramo_ says “Even if you dodge all his W passive stacks, his arrow still have a high damage. Go cleanse + Ghost to cleanse his ultimate and chase him. Don't trade early and wait till your ultimate ”
0
Puppitteer says “Actually a lot more annoying than youd expect, he's flexible, has 3 builds so runes are difficult, but just take fleet and hope to catch him off guard with a wall E”
0
LustAndSpite says “Varus is a strong auto attacker no matter what he builds and he has no built-in cleanses, so he's technically not a big threat.
However, he has good poke and his ult is deadly. Pure Skill Matchup.”
0
the hood says “A good Varus will cause u troubles. You have to respect his range and not let him push you in. Avoid getting poked and look for All ins. This matchup gets harder or easier depending on the support matchup.”
0
support_diff says “Don't get me wrong, Varus is a great adc but he just can't do much against you as you have your E. With it you can dodge his ult very easily. You also outfarm him early. Wait for your chance and when that chance comes, do a fast trade for a safe win and control over lane”
0
DreamOfValhalla says “You must take Cleanse against him, since if you get hit by his R you are done. Varus can see where your axes are dropping so he will spam his abilities on those marks. You can all in him when he has abilkities like R or Q on CD
”
0
DreamOfValhalla says “He has more range than you and deal a lot of damage in early game. If you have an enchanter support that can block his damage you are good. Also try to poke with your green in early stages of game when abilities are on CD”

Sivir BelfoRoxo says “Playing against Varus requires attention only at his level 6, but you can safely counter this with his E skill, avoid taking his arrows as you have a safe laning phase.”

Doody_tco says “Do not give him kills and let him scale. Otherwise he will end up one-shotting your team”

Reptile9LoL says “Varus matchup isnt easy, but you can avoid all of his spells with your Q.
If Varus oversteps once while having Cd on Q E or R you're winning the all-in. Try and bait out his spells, if he misses/has no blight stacks theyre very high cooldown and you have good trade/kill windows after.”
0
CiorbaHater says “Varus is very hard to beat at 1vs1 in early so wait for cs and cs safe”
0
LOVEE says “Another difficult champion to face against since your goal of this build is to all in often with E or package. However, varus does a great deal in preventing all in using his R. If he builds ap even a lot scarier. I would recommend taking cleanse in this champion otherwise be careful. Besides that, usually the lane should go well.”

Aronnn says “He is annoying, but not anything special. You can deny half of his damage just by blocking his q.”

afrente do tempo says “dodge or ban.
rush bork and sit in your tower. ping often for your jungler help you”

LuvEmoGirls says “Varus is really annoying, has a lot of range and can oneshot if he goes lethality or ap build, but you win early so punish his early game.”
0
DROBENMAIN says “Poke matchup, if he overextends you can pretty much go on his for free unless he has ult”
0
Hidden Ghoster says “Avoid Poke Damage at all costs. Long Sword start is situational here, depending on support matchup. Varus will start E level 1 every single game, don't underistimate it's range. Level(s) 2-3, assume he's going to use his range, be prepared for him to use his ult once he's 6 as he will look for an all in. ”
0
LoLEnryu says “Poke Varus is 50-50 matchup
On-hit Varus is 80-20 matchup favored for Nilah
If Varus is going poke, he can just stand back and Q until you cannot walk up to farm minions and have to play for EXP. Depending on the support matchup, the laning phase can be very rough. Take resolve secondary + Doran's shield and just try to survive lane.
If varus is going on-hit, the matchup is very simple, he won't be able to poke you out and you can always fight him / short trade by going in for poke then using W + E to get out of his auto range. Always try to play with support to burn his flash before using ultimate.
Doesn't matter which type of Varus it is, always take cleanse + flash.”

VrNtv says “Varus isn't too bad as long as you watch for his poke with Piercing Arrow. He'll try to throw down his E on top of you when you walk up for CS, so just be weary here and try not to take too much damage.”

NickLeVlach says “Varus isn't strong against Ezreal if he doesn't get you, with his R, or hits you 3 times to activate his passive. Also, be careful Varus E, which makes antiheal and slow.”

Take DB”

slendoooo says “Varus wins long trades, and can follow up with 1 of his abilities after short trades, always look to dodge his Q or E after you trade 1-2 autos with him.
The real problem with Varus is after he is level 6, his ultimate is not a stun, it's a root, so you will be able to auto attack him and use abilities, the problem is that Draven has 550 range and varus 575, so even if you try to auto him once he will ult you, you will never be able to because of the range.
After 6 look for fake engages so he waste his R ability and repeat doing short trades till he's dead.

Dodge Q and you will be fine.
Dodge R or you're dead.

If you cant dodge Q, take sustain runes.”

franksterzz says “Varus isn't even a champion at the moment. That being said, he can poke you out so try to dodge his Qs as much as possible. Take extra care when he's 6 because his ult is a crazy gank setup and can lead to some insane damage if he plays around his W passive properly.”

DixonTheGuideMaker says “Post 6, avoid overextending when you’re defenceless. Varus’ Ultimate Chain of Corruption(R) can be used to catch you out of position and start a fight. Play safer whenever his Ultimate is up. Avoid standing inside the minion wave. This will allow Varus to poke and push the wave at the same time. Standing outside of the minion wave will force him to choose between shoving and poking with his Piercing Arrow(Q). Varus will try his hardest to poke you out of lane. Try your hardest of dodge as much damage and abilities as possible.”

Kamicali says “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 by running far enough away from it. He's less of a problem in relation to bigger threats like twitch and caitlyn.”

Dazlirn says “Varus can either be a very hard match up or just overall difficult match up for Draven.
You definitely would want to take Cleanse as his ult is not the easiest to dodge and could hit you from your support too.
If the Varus is really good at landing his Qs, depending on the supports it could be hard to lane against him.”

IKeepItTaco says “◉ Varus is rarely seen currently, but when he is seen he is usually going some type of lethality build so they tend to play for early-mid game. He’s a poke and utility ADC atm.
◉ Varus is actually very simple to understand in lane because he’ll mostly just be trying to poke you with his [[Piercing Arrow]]s and occasionally using [[Hail of Arrows]] to set up his Q to land better onto you.
◉ His Q [[Piercing Arrow]] has an interaction with the active of his W [[Blighted Quiver]] which means Q [[Piercing Arrow]] will do more damage based on your missing health. So, if you get low expect it to one shot you so watch out and don't underestimate the damage!
◉ Do your best to dodge his abilities and stay healthy. Focus on farming and keeping your HP up!
◉ Take [[Cleanse]] as it’s the ultimate counter to his ultimate [[Chain of Corruption]] which is an engage tool that he will use on you alot starting from the laning phase till the end of the game. If you take [[Cleanse]] then you can remove it instantly and continue about your day and perhaps even kill him after!
◉ Win Condition: Stay healthy in lane and focus on scaling. Take [[Cleanse]] to counter his ultimate for the rest of the game. Don’t give him early leads and he will become useless.

WayOfTheTempesst says “Varus has really good poke so you have to watch out for his Q's and not lose too much HP in lane. ”

LostFishEU says “Why I put Varus as a major is simply the ultimate. His ultimate makes it really easy for his support to follow up with a bind / root / hook. Varus ultimate also roots you as Vayne from using tumble and using you ultimate invisibility, which makes it that you will lose out on a lot of damage. Pre-Level 6 Varus doesn't have too much. Varus has his Q and E that could chunk you low but you also have your tumble to dodge them.”

ELOSANTA says “A good Lucian player shouldn't lose this match. All of Varus's abilities can be dodged using Lucian's dash. If the Lucian player is experienced he should win, now this match is not impossible for Varus to win the matchup because he could time his skills after Lucian uses his E so as Lucian you have to know when to use your E. Lucian's E is 18 second cool down at level 1 and Varus' arrow is 16 seconds so if you use it to dodge something be aware that his arrow comes off cool down first. Varus' E is also another thing Lucian can outplay with his E, at level 1 Varus' E is a 18 second cool down which is equal to Lucian's dash. Unless Varus is engaging pre level 6 if he is just using it to poke it's not worth a dash because Varus can follow with a Q while you're running away. After Varus has level 6 save your dash for his R. Read his body language since it is a short range if we walks up be ready to dash away.”

Coldsong says “Varus is easy but very annoying to deal with for Samira.

Vapora Dark says “Varus is a problem for Jhin, the range on his autos makes him a pain to out trade pre 6 and post 6 he can hardcore CC you, and with a lack of mobility its hard to dodge, causing you to be unable to attack back because of his auto range and lose the fight thanks to his Q/W burst. Focus on farming early and let your support/jungle create the pick, which thankfully is pretty easy to do due to his lack of any form of mobility. Not even a movement speed steroid.”

Amberdragon says “Threat level depends on how he is doing in the meta.
He works similarly to Caitlyn, but not as bad just because Varus is worse and less popular. Expect to get poked hard. Don't stay in lane with low health or he will snipe you. Use your ultimate to dodge his and all in him before he bursts you. Consider taking Cleanse especially if his team has more cc, his ultimate has a much lower cooldown than yours so you will not always be able to dodge it without summoner spells or Galeforce.”

ooftheiii says “Keep in mind he needs to charge his ability. Punish him if he is a bad position. Avoid standing inside the minion wave. This will allow Varus to poke and push the wave at the same time. Standing outside of the minion wave will force him to choose between shoving and poking with his Q. Picking off Varus before a team fight is highly effective. Bursting him is one of the best ways to do so as he is rather squishy and immobile due to the lack of a dash or escape ability.”

ctm20141 says “His lv 1 is pretty strong; he has good auto range, good all in potential with Lethal Tempo and good poke with his Q.
His lv 2 is deadly if he can AA-AA-AA-EMPOWERED Q.
His lv 3 is almost equally deadly, but it's bit weaker than his lv 2 power spike.
He can follow up his support DISGUSTINGLY WELL once he hits lv 6: if you get hit by any CC he will follow up with his ult and it's pretty much uncounterable. Oh, and if you get hit by his ult you are 100% dead :D.
Once you get Quicksilver Sash you outcale him in 1v1s.
On hit/crit varus is pretty strong in late game teamfights once he gets his reset, but you outscale him regardless :D.”

jhoijhoi says “ Varus' ultimate, Chain of Corruption is a fantastic initiation, similar to Ashe's Enchanted Crystal Arrow. If you or your ally is hit by it, ensure you don't stick together, move in separate directions. Hail of Arrows is similar to Kog's slime trail, or MF's round of bullets - they're more often used for utility, as in slowing an enemy champion from fleeing or chasing, rather than for damage. Watch out for Piercing Arrow, like Cait's Piltover Peacemaker, you have fair warning when Varus will attempt to snipe you with this, as he will often try to increase its range and damage by drawing it out.”

SapphireLoL says “His damage mostly relies on his Q with his W So if you dash away from that you can get an advantage. You can equally slow him with your E and he can his. His R is his only other escape option.”

Nodon says “he can poke you out but like u win all in so just play better than him kekw”

Sordoma says “If Varus goes lethality build, it won't be a great time for you.”

KuuHaKu_OtgmZ says “Well, this lane will be awkward, just dodge his Qs and you will be good”

Twiggymocha says “Besides his q harass, varus does not have much going for him, he goes the same build as you with worse 1v1'ing potential, just dodge q's and you will be fine.”
0
CALSHARKY says “Killable but annoying it entirely depends on what he builds and the support. If it's DH poke Varus then prepare yourself for pure aids if you have idiot support.”
0
xSEASeahawks12 says “This is arguably the most skill-based match up out there. If you can effectively predict when Varus is going to release his Q and hop accordingly, you can avoid most of his damage. However, if he lands this, it's absolutely massive chunk damage that is nearly impossible to come back from. Buy a Doran's Shield every time and play very safe to avoid his insane poke. Before he hits level 6, you have to hope that your support can get on top of him, as his low mobility can let you stick onto him until he dies or Flashes. Unfortunately, after level 6, if he lands his ult you are dead. Always play behind your support, as even being behind you minion wave isn't enough to block his tendrils of death. If he's going Lethality, then just remember that you out scale him and pretty much punt on dreams of first blood or general laning success.”
0
Zoodyacc says “Beware of Varus R, after you get hit by that you most likely will be dead, however if you manage to avoid it, you can go all in on him. He has powerful W+Q that he can catch you up and deal enormous damage with, although there's a catch since you can dodge it with your Tumble [Q].”

LBmyBB says “His range and grevious wounds really stop you from doing what you need to do”

DravenMETA says “Lethality Varus is broken as of this patch. If you are not abusing it to climb, you don't care about LP. ”

Eneino01 says “varus letality can build early anti heal which is kinda bad for us”
0
atonementblade says “Spell shield his Q for mana and leave spell shield up when he hits level 6 so he can't root you.”
0
atonementblade says “If he's building lethality, a lot of damage can be avoided by dodging his Q with yours. He has little mobility, so dodging his ult with your tumble can easily lead to an all-in.”
0
JccmSaysNom says “Same as Ezreal, Better poke and is able to play defensively because of his long range, Varus doesn't have an escape spell so coordinate with the jungler for a free kill.”

Pingu Fugindo says “Seu range é maior que o da vayne e ele pode bater em você enquanto você está preso”

Bebras19 says “After avoiding his ult, he is good for your passive. But beware, strong poke. Extreme threat if ult is present. Build Scimitar in moments of doubt.”

madmickey says “Varus can be difficult. Play passive and avoid his ult. Similar to Ashe, keep moving. ”
0
MayeLeven says “He can poke you with his Q, especially when he pressed his W or with his E. You can trade him easily, but then you must dodge his Q. After level 6, he can root you with his R, but if you dodge it, he will be an easy target to kill.”
0
AngelisNice says “dodge his Long shot and ult then he is almost useless”
0
Midorima says “Varus is a lane bully that can consistently poke out Vayne.
To win this match up: You have to wait out his Q and dodge his ulti at 6 or else he will just win through his poke. ”

Deathfeather says “he pokes, but has bad engage. play smart and you are just a better champ. ”

RoadDGM says “Havent done the matchup but i feel like it will be more of a support diff matchup just try to dodge his q's and keep a safe range early for an all in at level 6.”

Holidayuniverse says “Varus is good vs Senna, because he has so long CC with his R. Senna is so squishy and she will be dead after his R maybe.”

Finnkip says “- Strong laning phase
- If you get by his R, you are dead”
0
Szauronmester says “You can outrade him with aa+Q, if he fires back an E you can go in cuz it has a 20sec cd early on. You can dodge his Q ez-pz with your speedboost.”
0
Ichaid says “Varus won't be hard as a matchup in laning phase but it will be hard, Try to dodge his Q with your Tumble. The range on his Q is the only tool he has to poke you from afar. Be careful, as a good Varus will try to ult you right after you Tumble. Buy QSS after BOTRK so you don't get stuck in his ult”
0
ZERO Destructo says “Avoid his Q at all cost. I recommend you to just farm on lane without much of a trade. If he lands his ult on you you're toasted, since it lasts so long. Also, be careful in fights and stay behind, and run even if he ults someone else since his ult can pass onto you if you're in range.”
0
Nik7857 says “Longer range then you. A slow. Poke. and giant CC ult. Better team fighting then you. He will probably play far back in lane and just poke you down. He is very easy to gank and he will guarantee flash if you engage on him. Win the lane and win the game ASAP. Buy qss after bork.”
0
Eccentricks says “All I can say, is watch for the E and Ult. I haven't fought many Varus players, so, play it safe is my best guess, because that is what you should do in most matchups at early game.”

Falllol says “Consegue parar a Vayne com muita facilidade por conta do seu alcance e sua facilidade em parar a Vayne com sua ultimate .”

Deathfeather says “Hes aight, but only really noteworthy if its the poke variant, other than that, take good trades and force him out of lane.”
0
spark2 says “Varus has a butt ton of poke but zero mobility. Go aggressive on him and dodge his Q's, but try not to push too hard. He's incredibly vulnerable to ganks, so try to leave some room for your jungler in the lane.”
0
Laverenz says “See if you can kill him a time or two before he hits level 6. He's not really a big threat for Vayne before level 6 basic of his poor damage output, and skillshot-reliant poke. After level 6 you're done. If he hits you with Ult there's not much you can do against it. He will probably kill you after level 6. Try to dodge his Ult, because it denies your ability to Tumble, which is bad, because Varus' range is 575 and Vayne only has 550.”
0
philsopaoto says “Varus should be an easy lane if you're good at dodging his Q and ult, and Xayah's root is great against Varus who lacks mobility outside of summs”
0
MewlingRavenPaw says “Damage windows is the name of the game. Play passive till he uses a spell on your support or misses one before attempting to trade back into him. If you're uncomfortable with Kalista just play around your first back of berserker greaves before telling your support to look for opportunities to engage. Just be cautious of his E when using heal as the greavious wounds can easily lead towards a good fight going south. ”
0
minepro221 says “He wins extened trades, while you win if you proc your passive and back off. in laneing phase, go for auto q trade on every minion. if he auto e to trade back, play aggressive, as his e is on a 20 second cooldown early. Late game, wait out her root, and you are good to go.”
0
Kynaz0071l0l says “Poke from his q and e is very annoying. His ult is good at locking you down, but if you can dodge it you can easily kill him. ”
0
Eucalyptus says “He can just build Muramana and Lethality and kill you with his fucking rail-gun from the comfort of his pentakill-house suite while you act as the Hotel's bellhop on the ground floor.”
0
Fruxo says “Try to avoid his Q's to your best ability. Same goes for his R, try to avoid it. A Varus without his ult (R) is very vulnerable, Take advantage of that.”
0
The Jhin Cena says “Varus' Q can be a bit annoying since he can constantly chop your health down with it. The best course of action is to just try your best to dodge it while also poking him with your passive. This is so if one of you engage, you will both have similar health rather than you being at 20% and him at 80.”
0
Hardstuck Sona says “Varus and Twisted Fate are similar in the sense that their early games are garbage, but Twisted Fate's is slightly better. Use that to your advantage.”
0
MrDecoy says “watch out for when he pops his blight stacks as the dmg might surprise you but if you trade around your w lane should be easy”
0
Zervax says “You outscale him, just don't get poked down in lane and watch out for that R.”
0
dravenfizz says “fairly easy matchup save your E to dash his abilities or more preferably sidestep his Q and dash his ult, again this is another champ that ruins your life in the later stages of the game.”

LostSoulslol says “Dependending on his support and build he can poke Jinx really easy with his Q and deny farm”
0
SimbaADC says “Varus can be a rough lane for Cait as he has decent range combined with strong abilities for trading and all in. Do not engage in long trades with him, the only trades you can win are when you can land an E-Q-Auto on him. Respect his level 6 all in ability, and remember that when you reach your 3 item spike your siege and poke potential is far greater than his. Consider a QSS after your IE/ 2 item spike.”

Nelkee says “if he tries to CS, just show him some of your positivity, demons hate positivity so he'll likely fuck off”

FrankynFood says “Beats you early. Accept it. Move on to late game where you show him his place. ”
0
SlashLion says “Varus is poke heavy and will constantly try to hit you with his Q, which can do a lot of unexpected damage and allows him to safely pick kills under tower if you are low. Not the worst matchup in the world but not the greatest either.”

lonely Xatu says “his skillshots are easy to spell shield, abuse this as much as possible”

InfernalFox says “He can be quite the bother. He can poke as much as you. Also you have no way of dodging his R. If you get hit by it you are screwed, its really hard to escape even after the ult ends.”

MallisTheGreat says “He can poke, but you can poke back. He can't really escape you whenever you engage, except for his ultimate being up, so care and abuse his cooldowns as much as you can.”

Vortiris says “He is somewhat squishy. You can outscale him easily, just don't mess up. Watch out when he tries to snipe you with Piercing Arrow. Do not get caught by his Chain Of Corruption and you can kill him.”

Numresunw says “Has a lot of range like to poke you down to death and his ult makes you unable to escape even if you go invisible while it is active, farm as long as possible and go for an early quiksilver slash.”

Shoguken says “Interrupting his attack speed may have a benefit for you.”

KawaiiNeko says “Relatively even lane, avoid his skills shots and ultimate. Push him under tower or poke him down to kill.”

Shake the Shade says “Very easy matchup Varus can never outscale you and loses early if played correctly.”

IamVictorious says “Dodge His Qs early game and you can destroy him late, just try to dodge his utli too otherwise he can become pretty tough to battle against”

Hidrogear says “Dodge his zone and your quite the guy, don't forget about his ult, he will chop you down in no time.”

Dayum Draven says “Varus can easily poke you, so it's a problem. Try to poke back as much as possible. Don't stand in his E , it'll reduce your lifesteal”
0
BurstTheBots says “Don't underestimate the range of his Q as for it's longer than a lot of people think also be sure to dodge his ult if possible.”
0
Shacolada says “Varus has no escape abilities so focusing him in team fights tends to be easy. Dodge his Piercing Arrow at any cost when he has stacked 3 blight on you, as it will do an incredibly high damage. If he has dark harvest, play extra safe at low health. Stay clear of Varus's ultimate because it can spread.”
0
Gun God Mike says “A lane with varus seems easy but it become dangerous when he reaches 6 and hard counters you with r,your goal is take advantage in early to delete the threat.”
0
Levi Senpai says “Not that strong , usually gonna go for blade - > rageblade build which cant kill you instantly so its easy for you to kill him especially with crit build”
0
Shderen says “If you can SOMEHOW get in his range, early on, you can trade well with him. If either of those criteria aren't met, he usually pokes your ass or just outright auto-attacks you into oblivion. Pray your team isn't braindead and knows how to deal with his ult when it hits one of them - even consider cleanse as a summoner spell. Avoid his E while you're regenerating from Q, as it inflicts Grievous Wounds.”

Niculae01 says “This matchup depends on your ability to dodge a spell. You dodge his Q, you win. You don't, you will have a really bad time down there.”

Fruxo says “Try to avoid his Q's to your best ability. Same goes for his R, try to avoid it. A Varus without his ult (R) is very vulnerable, Take advantage of that.”

NeinMeansNo says “Varus's Q+E can chunk Twitch's health especially when Twitch has three stacks of blight . Although Varus can be easily executed if Twitch's support has hard cc.”
0
Todomagia says “In Building
(I do not have too many encounters with him)”
0
Krazioz says “This is the same as with Jinx, except that Varus has less range, even though that he can poke you down with his q. Varus relies heavily on his abilities so try to bait them out and then engage on him. Varus is biggest threat when combined with support like Lulu or Soraka. ”
0
jster131 says “Pretty even matchup early game, but if he gets ahead, your late game becomes a nightmare. Make sure not to make any mistakes or feed the varus because his late game power is no joke.”

Xerxes Is ADC says “keep your distance, move side to side dont run straight at him as he can show his abilities easier at you. becareful of his poke damage.”
0
xTheUnlimited says “Really solid lane. Ahead in range and in early damage. Your only hope is to get an aggressive support and over-aggress him. Depends on the supporters. He has range advantage and will push you in at early Levels. You scale better into late game tho. ”

xTheUnlimited says “Similar to Sivir. He can push alot and has a strong laning phase and you have to watch out for his good Damage in lane. ”

Vayne To Dia ez pez says “Some people say that Varus is a counter. The only thing that makes him hard to play against it his GW on E. Other than that I do not see anything hard about facing him.”

Tipurrs says “He will poke you from afar. all in at 6 since he's too squishy and mana hungry.”
0
SpicyAdCurry says “Varus is one of the Best ADC'S to counter Caitlyn in late game he simply Stack his Passive and Q late game and in early She loses trade with Varus cause of his Passive ”
0
qasddsa says “Dodge his Q and poke him down with your Q. He has a weak early game but is strong mid-late game, especially in teamfights with his ultimate. You do not want to get caught by his ultimate, as that will put full stacks of his passive on you, letting him quickly burst you down. With a little bit of kiting to dodge his abilities, he can be easily killed.”
0
weinerman says “hah, pathetic, his range is monstrous but he is homosexual so hes probably going to lose concentration looking at ur ginormous weiner. also, everything he has is spell shieldable. spell shield anything he drops directly on u. it's always feelsgood time in the house when u spell shield a max range q when u have 3 spooky varus stacks on u and then u laugh maniacally and take a sip of your evil tea ahhaahhahahahhahahahahhahah. also late game when varus is by himself trying to be big weiner because he thinks he can because of his small weiner ult u can run at him first and pop ur spell shield, either he wastes ult and dies, or dies. :)))”

Dr3sko says “With his Q he can poke without punishment. If you have 1-2 stacks, care for his E”

Robin Banks says “Immobile Adc with range advantage. However its very easy to proc your W+E. I'd say you win pre 6 as long as he isn't able to detonate any blight stacks. Haven't seen too many varus's nowadays so I'm a bit rusty on the knowledge of this matchup. ”

koyomilikesbloods says “His r is strong but it doesn't stun. Really it's his passive you want to watch out for. His slow is stronger than yours at early levels so just be careful. You can poke him easily because of where he stands in lane.”
0
iOwnPT says “Now this isnt 100% right, you all know it depends on the player but if the enemy Varus is good, he will give you a hard time poking with his E/Q where your axes will drop.
Also, in level6+ if he gets you on his ult, you wont be able to catch your axe which makes you lose alot of damage.”

ZiviPK says “Constant poke and harass that you can do little against. usually my #1 ban.”
