As Varus ADC, stay behind your frontline and attack the safest available target. Since Varus lacks a dash or blink, avoid stepping forward before your team commits; if an enemy dives you, use Chain of Corruption to create time to retreat or reposition.
In lane, trade without giving up safe spacing
Use Piercing Arrow to poke, but remain behind your support rather than moving into a vulnerable position to chase damage. If your support engages, follow up with Hail of Arrows to slow the target. The draft also advises saving mana for moments when you can pressure an opponent instead of repeatedly using Piercing Arrow to farm.
In teamfights, follow this order
- Wait for your frontline to commit before moving up.
- Attack a target you can reach safely, especially one your allies have crowd-controlled.
- If an assassin or bruiser reaches you, use Chain of Corruption on the threat, then retreat or reposition.
- At objectives, keep your position near the fight and watch for enemy rotations. If opponents approach, reassess before continuing the objective.
The practical priority is to stay alive and keep attacking from a safe position. Don’t chase the enemy carry through danger when another target is within reach.

This saved me time in the early game.
The explanation is clear, especially for beginners.
I wish I had read this before upgrading the wrong thing.
This helped me understand strategy much better.
