Guy from 2 posts above here, in reply to:

"Actually this is how I always build Varus, as a Hybrid:

Berserker's Greaves, Rageblade, Malady, Nashor's Tooth, Hextech Gunblade, Deathcap.

Summoner Spells:

Surge/Ignite/Flash/Ghost

I always do well with this build, I get bored of going pure AD Varus."

I am sorry to say that this build is seriously flawed. Berserker's Greaves are only competitive DPS-wise to sorcerer's if you build a void staff. Furthermore, picking up malady without these makes malady almost useless.

Your build severely lacks any form of sustain or tankiness. It is to be noted that AP Varus will not be able to proficiently make use of the regenerative effects of Hextech Gunblade.

Lastly, surge is an extremely weak summoner spell when compared to ignite.
