Who this champion beats in lane, and who beats it.Who counters Varus and who Varus beats
Varus hits like a truck from range, but the cracks are easy to find: he has no dash, no escape, and no way to peel for himself if you ever get on top of him. His charged Piercing Arrow is slow to wind up and easy to read, and his root, Chain of Corruption, is a long but slow traveling skillshot that he has to commit before it spreads to anyone. If you can dodge or out range his poke, his lane pressure dries up fast, and an immobile Varus who has used his root is a sitting duck. His Hail of Arrows zone slows and cuts healing, but it does not lock you down, so anything mobile can simply walk through it. When you pick Varus, you are betting you can hit your skillshots from safety, so respect mobile carries who dodge your shots and dive you, and ranged threats who out poke and out range you in lane.
