The Hidden Top Varus Main in KR Grandmaster 

8:22 "hiding in bushes works surprisingly well" , meanwhile Baron buff spots Varus position and yone still manages to walk into him and die

He's been a strong top for the whole year. It's just that almost nobody plays him, but it very much felt like he was just Kayle but without being super weak early.

5:13 Best combo for all time.

Love how Fiora parried his strongest combo and hit the right weaknesses, he just stood still and won

Reminder: Ult can also proc w. Your full burst damage with auto 3 times then ult combo is surprisely high when you just reach lv6. Against non-tank, you may also build Everfrost for Everfrost>auto>auto>ult combo for more w damage and ult's accurancy. Never use the ult for long range engaging only.

Lol @ 3:43 you can hear the yone spam pinging the barrier 😂

5:10 finally I found the best timestamp format for excel

The amount of pings after Varus gets a kill is bigger than the amount my jungler recieves

Yone be like: "Baron minions without anyone present? Boy, I sure do hope there's no one hiding inside this br-"

I tried the same ap build with rageblade cuz i was fed and had fun…this champ once get fed is ridiculous insane, i think i would be afraid more of a fed varus than any other adc I swear

Never in my life have I seen a Fiora land all ult vitals and do no damage against a squishy

Insane how calm and controlled he plays in situations that seem doomed, especially at 6:30.

AP Varus is easily one of my favorite builds. Had a sion on the enemy team that was just a menace in team fights if I wasn’t there because no one had the damage to hurt him. Queue me walking into lane with a R, wait for 3 blights then, Q and he’s instantly dead at 80% HP. Entire team spam question mark pings me and it was hilarious.

2 key facts which are missing in this video is, the longer you cannel your W, the more damage you deal with the applied W stacks. NOT only the Q damage itself. Also your fully channeled Q has the same duration as the ultimate takes to apply 3 W stacks. The guy in this video never used it. But that's how you basically one shot anyone with 3 items by using ult, W active + fully charged Q

3:43 you can hear Yone rage pinging his barrier

Survivability on ap varus when itemizing is optimal but theres an unmatched feeling for when you go full damage and delete a tank's hp.

Level 2-3 gank is mandatory. Repeat before 6 then the lane is over. Volibear does surprisingly well into the matchup

I love how after every kill he gets, you can hear the sudden spam of people pinging Varus (Alive) because they are surprised.

Just for info, procking blight stack also refuce W cd (because u daid Q and E but not W ^^)

been playing ap varus mid and top for the past week and my main issue with it is while it's very strong and you can get ahead and bully very hard, people flashing or you missing any of your abilities punishes you VERY hard, lots of enemies will just flash your wq or if you're playing up against certain champs like gwen xin elise etc it's very hard to do anything vs those champs until they lose their safety tools. Playing vs ezreal has been extremely annoying as he is super good into varus. Varus can easily 1v2 even early but the hard part about him is being able to actually carry the game out, this is something i struggled with harder as ap even when I was extremely fed compared to the old onhit build for 13.10 and crit build. The build is super safe once you get core though which feels nice but carrying is much harder and precise.

There is also a mid-varus playstyle but more on scaling since you go manamune then same items as above, but you go first strike as a rune so you can 1 shot tanks even faster with the build

My favorite thing about these videos is that, without fail, there is always one person who out of nowhere says "_______ has always been strong at/in *insert lane/role here*" and just...quietly decided to not share this information until a video pops up. Always happens, and it's always funny to me cause it's always blatantly obvious that they're just trying to be unique.

Thank you, now every top lane player in my ranked team is picking this with a 30% win rate.

love the hard work dobby!❤ is it possible for a renekton video soon?

As a top main I do despise ap varus a lot.

I think anathemas is the ultimate counter for him if some tank build it

ok, PtA, good choice. enough to give a thumb up to this guy

that yone was so blind lol 8:20

I have been already doing this for a while now, problem is some champions can simply run you down so it's a bit hard to play

there was one in euw d1/d2 a last year.pretty sure he got to master after that.He was a really bad player averaging 11 deaths per game,but had the most dmg every time.This thing is broken af

Rito:"Oh no, Varus proc is OP, Let's nerf azir"

Amazing explanatory video thanks.

the healing reduction on E making things easy in the top lane.

worth noting that any qss item also counters the ult cc + debuff

oh well...this video out..time to see varus top on my game 😮😮😮

The answer for immobile but damaging toplaners like Darius is to go flash-exhaust and buy early anathema chains so he wont be 1v1 tanking in ur face while dealing over 9000 damage. It wont help win the game but you will surely survive laning phase with few kills in pocket.

Oh my god yay my friends told me I was trolling going AP varus top but then I proceeded to have a 75% wr across 50 games lmao. Only difference from this guy is I run exhaust. Helps a lot with all-in champs

Overheal and Shield Bash. Thats some 5D chess

I think this is the first time I see a Dobby video that instead of making me think "I wanna try that" made me think "how do I counter that?".

Patiently waiting for MundoKing to rise up.

i played ap varus top a few times, but it just felt gross so i stopped. Take the AP auto attack rations of teemo, the range of cait and add the bonkers 1shotting of ap varus lategame and you get a scary ass champ

I was looking at tier lists and was wondering why was Varus top so popular and high up in wr lol and dobby comes to answer it

I've always known AP Varus was a beast. The fact he use PTA and Nashor's rush just splendid. Why the hell he use shield bash though lol.

感謝分享，這種來協助的人類榜樣阿 各位

why would you take shield bash with no shield?

So, why Shield Bash?

that Lee Sin clip at the start is so disgusting it's funny

x ranged character destroys toplane wowee good video as always tho

Finally I have sth to do in bronze

can i use nashors and and normal build on adc for him? it works right?

The bane of any Tank player

Tbf, this ap build for Varus has been played around in aram nearly 1y

the amulet over 30 div right now , any placement option ?

I'm getting tempted to play again just to play these off-meta strong picks lol.

ironically ap varus auto attacks more than ad varus

Had a varus top in my ranked today that absolutely ran it down. I blame this video.

one mythic item alternative i suggest is hextech protobelt. It's active is useful for kiting but is also a great tool for making picks. Rift maker is decent but late game the fight is often over before the damage ramp and omnivamp do work

PtA has so much synergy with his kit since he wants to put 3 stacks on the enemy before proccing them anyway

Does anyone know how W stacks detonation damage interacts with Riftmaker's vamp ? The wiki says it's proc damage, so does it mean vamp is 100% effective ? The champ can seem incredibly tanky for no reason sometimes.

The thing is, Varus has no mobility, most ppl going for Varus top will get destroyed by a big bruiser with his jungler... And no, varus doesn't deal that much dmg once you get a little bit of mr and lifesteal, his dmg are made to counter hp builds, but going dmg and mr will make you unkillable by his one and only combo, if you survive, you win. The best counter is a all in type of champ with sustain, and obviously, a camp from your jungler, once behind varus is over, so camp him, dive him, make his life a living hell and its like any other adc who's feeding, they can't come back.

been playing this build for like a year but with lethal tempo and exhaust in Master elo

one big counter to this build is shields (especially maw of malmortious)

This video is golden

Q+W also works when you almost press them at the same time. It's not like that you can choose whether to press W while charging Q, but you can get rid of thinking that 'I must press W before charging Q'. Just press Q and W at the same time and it still applies W.

lol good morning been using it my self since 2 years now and currently challenger

wow, people seriusly think that Varus isnt safe, i mean, he is a range champ with almost 600 range in autoatacks, his skills have 700 range and more, his passive make his farm easy, and his w passive same, just afk farm, and win games by pressing R, and riot still dont nerf this gargabe lol

This player is a booster. He plays varus and draven barrier top. He boosts in NA D1 to Chall all the times. I have seen this guy a lot of times. For example, look at this player 6 days ago on opgg in Challenger NA: gs9 savage. Draven and varus top XD

bing chilling

How does he play the mid and late game? He cannot sidelane as far as I can tell

what is that shield bash doing in the build

Gonna try this on my silver lobby

So the argument was always pta vs hob. I personally like hob better but i might try pta i guess. Altho i feel like hob has more value to quick proc W for an ult or normal burst otherwise esp later on when you can’t really basic attack 3 times in late without hob and without being hard focused by everyone

Now all the low elo's will try this in ranked and int because they don't have 1000 games on varus or skill to do what this guy does.

New dobby video :D

Voce joga muito bem @LoL Dobby

If I play Varus mid which champs I should ban?

DOOOOBBBBYYYY DOOOOWWWWNN！！！！！！

Way of the bow

Imo hob is so much betetr than pta, due to quick trading early game and quick burst late game.

does he do the ult - w - full charge q?

lol I used to play AP varus top lane back in season 6

I m playing varus top last 2 years... I feel robed, now everyone plays it

What is the shieldbash for?

I'm ready to run it down in silver 2! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️

Unironically Varus at this moment is just another Gragas, he has so many builds atm that allows him to go 3 positions and even support with no trouble

Korean onetrick try not to name yourself *champion name*- king challenge (impossible)

do I need to learn how to kite? reason why I dnt adc bot.

I belive that camille and gp are also counters.

5:27 this darius q is so dumb like just give up the cannon and walk up knowing you will get level 6 and varus dies..

How dare u showing my AP Varus to the world...

Again a renekton getting bullied

Akaps brought me here

Its not broken, its balanced but people don't know how to play vs varus, don't know how to build , what to block ,what to pick, how his damage works etc, and when it comes about varus top (as i have over 300 games with him top) its not worth playing it , i have gotten severe anger issues ,depression due to constant toxicity of my teammates and hate from enemies (i mute people as soon as i see ? Or varus top? In champ select, but its not words that are problem its soft or hard inting due to pick). So if u wanna play varus top because u saw this video, expect: Your teammates first timinh their champs for fun bcs u play varus top, your teammates picking ap champs to make harder for u ,your jungler completely ignoring u because u play varus top, getting flamed for everything that goes wrong that game, getting chat restricted (yes you will if u type anything like "take tower" because u get so much spam reports for toxicity and dostruptive behaviour) now onto enemies : getting hate because u play varus (ranged top) even tho they play into counterpick, getting giga camped by enemy jungler due to ranged top issue and no escape, you will be focused constantly in teamfights and everytine u get killed enemies will make sure to drop "disgusting ranged top" but the worst issue is taht when u get ganked for the tenth time under second tower (happens more than you'll imagine) u will be met with "xd, having fun" from YOUR teammates. If u got questions about ap varus feel free to ask

PtA seems bizarre when most fights you'll only get 5-6 autos off. HoB makes way more sense

If the 3 stack on w is important why not take hail of blades instead of pta

find me a kr onechamp player without the champion name + king in their name

Inb4 next week games will be full with 1-12 AP varus top.

Varus also disgusting down bot when he gets fed

Yes more range top

Nothing said about passive Look how he lasthits creep before every fight
