Guide to Synergizing Vi and Varus

Tips for Playing as Vi with Varus

A fully charged Vault Breaker will deal double damage. It's great for catching and finishing off fleeing enemies.

Relentless Force does full damage to anyone caught in the shockwave. Use it on minions in lane to hit enemies hiding behind them.

Cease and Desist is a powerful initiation tool, just remember not to get too far ahead of the rest of your team.

Advice to Understand How Varus Will Play

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.
