"so he may end up having kayles problem of being a little bit of everything and not amazing at any of it, not to mention the no escape problem"

Kayle's problem is that her skills posess little synergy and developers weren't sure if they wanted her to be a support or carry. The rework a while ago only made things that much worse.

Varu's kit is completely streamlined and lends to a unique and efficient laning strategy. His passive and his W's onhit dmg lead to more exchanges in his benefit in lane (ie you will deal more damage to them than they will to you). Blight procs and his long ranged abilities allow him to proc very large magic damage nukes with no AP. His heal debuff and ultimate allow him to prevent enemy supports from healing right before he seals his kill by rooting the enemy forcing them to take more shots.
