All League of Legends Varus Skins

One of the ancient darkin, Varus was a deadly killer who loved to torment his foes, driving them almost to insanity before delivering the killing arrow. He was imprisoned at the end of the Great Darkin War, but escaped centuries later in the remade flesh of two Ionian hunters—they had unwittingly released him, cursed to bear the bow containing his bound essence. Varus now seeks out those who trapped him, in order to enact his brutal vengeance, but the mortal souls within still resist him every step of the way.

The Arrow of Retribution Varus is one of the most popular champions in LoL. His main role is marksman and you will see him on the bot lane. Every champion in League of Legends has its uniqueness determined by his skills.

Passive
Living Vengeance

On kill or assist, Varus temporarily gains Attack Speed. This bonus is larger if the enemy is a champion.

Q
Piercing Arrow

Varus readies and then fires a powerful shot that gains extra range and damage the longer he spends preparing to fire.

W
Blighted Quiver

Passive: Varus’ basic attacks deal bonus magic damage and apply Blight. Varus’ other abilities detonate Blight, dealing magic damage based on the target’s maximum Health.
Active: Varus empowers his next Piercing Arrow.

Varus fires a hail of arrows that deal physical damage and desecrate the ground. Desecrated ground slows enemies’ Move Speed and reduces their self healing and regeneration.

R
Chain of Corruption

Varus flings out a damaging tendril of corruption that immobilizes the first enemy champion hit and then spreads towards nearby uninfected champions, immobilizing them too on contact.
