Dyrus said this in the interview on dignitas' webiste:
http://www.team-dignitas.net/articles/blogs/League-of-Legends/1365/Interview-with-TSM-Dyrus-Though-reginald-might-stop-after-season-2-and-just-focus-on-working

I think the best top laner I’ve ever faced top was Wickd trailing behind him I would say Voyboy. For any other top laners I haven't played them enough to determine it, such as soaz or darien. I've never played against them at all or enough. If we were going by experience for who has beaten me top the most I would say burbs who isn't even a pro player.

Isn't burbs TL?

I'm still working on AP/hybrid Varus, tried going rageblade->zerker's->dcap, still dealt a pretty good amount of damage with autoattacks, did a surprisingly huge amount when coupled with triggering W with his R -- I could see it being legitimately scary in mid. The problem I ran into was that the build comepletely lacks the sustain of the traditional AD builds, which sucks. Gonna try going rageblade->gunblade later tonight. Triggering W charges should provide spell vamp, right? What about the bonus magic damage that W gives to autos?

No, and no.

From the wiki:
Blighted Quiver and Blight detonation do not proc spell vamp or Rylai's slow.

the .25 modifier for on-hit blight seems pretty bad compared to just building ad, and getting the scaling on Q and E in return.

Tbh you might want to go Cutlass before rageblade. Lifesteal, AD and a ranged slow/nuke that doesn't require 20% of your mana pool? Hell yeah.

Oh and Varus does pretty well mid right?

How about a team comp with Soraka/manafed AP bot (Cassio/Anivia/Karthus/ and Varus mid? Yes/No?

Dudes saying "he's OP, I saw him tank nashor with only wriggles and Phage !"
... y'know, if he can do it, any champ can do it, he's got no steroid whatsoever in regard to lifesteal on a single target.

Also, I'm seeing normals right now in featured games, one had a level 23 account in it. Great. Only saw Varus win lanes, but only saw the opposing AD or support playing like a total retard too. Doesn't make me learn much.

I think Hybrid Varus might be best Varus.
Rageblade is really REALLY good on him. If i recall correctly, 3 AA + 1 skill (which triggers max W), so 4 stacks on Rageblade, hits his scaling % breakpoint on W, which means baller damage.

Main problem with AS/AP hybrid is his long-ish cooldowns, but maybe it wouldn't be all that bad to build Nashor's on him.
Yes, I just suggested building Nashors on someone. Deal w/ it.

So for Varus, you think 21/0/9 for mana regen or 21/9/0 to get defenses to make up for lack of escape? I use utility on Ez and Corki because I oom all the time, but I feel like you can still do some damage with Varus thanks to his W DoT even without mana.


I'm leaning towards the 21/0/9 idea personally. I am going to have to make a AD caster page for masteries since I want to play more Ezreal at some point. So how good is rageblade on Varus? It sounds like a really good item for him but how does it pan out? Also, what about Nashor's Tooth? Use those 2 for AS and AP and then get BT or IE. Malady would be another interesting option as well.


At first glance I would assume they work similar to Kayle in that Nashor's and Rageblade give you a pretty strong midgame but by the time lategame rolls around you're wishing you had just built normal AD items instead.


Well, I'm suggesting replacing the PD with one of these so I can still get the AS but also get some AP.

You want the critz tho.


And that's why I'd get the IE rather than one of his recommended items. I get crit% more crit damage, AP, AS, mana regen, and CDR.

So the build would be something like IE, NT, BT, defensive item specific to enemy team comp, beserkers greaves or boots related to enemy team comp, and then the last item can vary based on the enemy team. If I am face-rolling I'd consider a PD as last item, if I am dying then maybe a GA or another defensive item.

It is vanity to love what passes quickly and not to look ahead where eternal joy abides. Tiberius77 | Mordek #1881 "I took a mint!"

That's kind of funny actually. How are those games being featured? lol.

I actually think Varus is kind of shitty in lane phase. That or I'm just playing with people who are bad. As any AD I've played against him I've won lane pretty convincingly. I think the only way he can win out is to use his Q to harass enough but I find his Q really easy to predict if he charges it up and if he just insta-fires it I can often just take the hit and then retaliate myself.

For what it's worth, I crushed Varus as Corki, Graves, and Kog'Maw.

in all honesty, nothing can compare to the damage of a regular AD carry build. you're gimping yourself out of damage if you think getting those other items is worth it.

Pretty sure people had this same knee-jerk reaction to Vayne, MUST BUILD ASPD OMG I DO SO MUCH DMG %HP. Except Varus scales LESS with aspd than Vayne, because to trigger it all you have to use and land a skillshot. Vayne can just herpderp autoattack, but you don't see anyone just stacking straight aspd on her, and for a good reason. You just don't do as much damage as you would with the generic AD carry build. Varus is also less mobile and more vulnerable than Vayne, who is already one of the more difficult AD carries to position, meaning forgoing lifesteal makes you that much easier to kill.

I'm facepalming obsing a number of people eat a very predictable Q fully charged in front of them (when a smart Varus does it from a bush, 'k, but right on front of you?).

I'm sighing reading a guy say "he's doing so much more damage than Corki's burst early game!".
Yeah. And next time he talks I'll read "his level 2 burst is so superior to Tristana's!".
