Key Strategic Tips:

3. Save ultimate (R) to catch out-of-position enemies
4. Stay close to your support in late game to avoid assassins
5. Focus on maintaining safe positioning while maximizing damage output

Essential Combos:

• Q + E for maximum poke damage
• R + E + Q for full burst combo
• E + Auto attacks for sustained damage
• R + W + Auto attacks for percent health damage

This setup is optimal for both lane dominance and late-game scaling, emphasizing Varus's strength as a versatile AD carry with strong poke and engagement potential.
