"His E. Probably his most reliable way to pop his Blight and poke people with. In my opinion, his most reliable non-ultimate move, though I prefer his Q myself"

This is what's keeping you from seeing his potential.

His Q is by the best spell to use to proc his blight stacks. It recharges quicker, uses less mana early on, and most importantly has a much longer range.

The idea with Varus is that early on you'll win exchanges because you have free passive onhit damage plus free attack speed buffs from last hitting. This translates into good attrition ESPECIALLY since you can debuff any healing done. When your lane opponent realizes their health is too low for another exchange they either must flee or get tagged by a long range Q for Blight procs.
