Just picked up Varus in Wild Rift and not sure what you should be doing? Don't worry, just read on for our guide on the Arrow of Retribution and you'll be dominating your botlane in no time at all.
Runes
Armed with a kit of extremely potent offensive abiltiies and great auto-attacks, Varus can easily build up stacks of Conqueror. In red, Gathering Storm is the perfect compliment to the keystone as it makes you a real threat in the late game.
Loyalty is a must-have for the duo-lane, as it will remain active as long as you stay close to your support.
In blue, Manaflow Band is a good pick for Varus as this champion plays like a caster, meaning that you'll quickly build up the 300 additional mana you'll need in the lategame.
