BT is by no mean bad on Varus especially now that most people max Q (high ad ratio, etc), but I personally prefer IE-zeal-LW-botrk simply because Varus has troubles against divers and botrk is great against that.

In lane you should play it pretty much like a Twitch, try to get auto's off then use your E to proc blight stacks, and poke from far away (if possible ouf of vision) with charged Q's. All-in with your ult when you can. Remember that your Q doesn't have to be charged, in the middle of a fight you will generally want to use Q without charging it too much, procing blight stacks with a semi charged Q still hits like a truck.

PS : Your ult also procs blight stacks. Using 1-2 auto's before engaging can give you slightly more damage which can be very important.
