Guide to Synergizing Varus and Rell

Tips for Playing as Varus with Rell

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.

An early point in Blighted Quiver helps harass enemy champions and get killing blows on minions.

During short range fights it's sometimes best to fire Piercing Arrow quickly, rather than charging it to full power.

This demonstrates that there is a negative strategic relationship between Varus and Rell that allows them to perform worse together than alone.
