The build is:

Berserker's Greaves

Nashor's Tooth

Deathfire Grasp

Rabadon's Deathcap

Lich Bane

This isn't meant for trolling. You're hardly dependant upon your ultimate. You still use Q and E all the time. They pretty much scale off of AP, because your Blight stacks do, and they trigger blight. If you can use Q and E to proc fully stacked Blight twice, that's 78% of their max HP + the 1356 from Blighted Quiver (since you hit at least 6x to do that).

That's not even factoring in Lich Bane or Deathfire Grasp. It has max cooldown reduction, and 1.5 attacks a second. You'd be dealing about 100 physial and 200 magical damage each autoattack. Whlie it takes forever to build up that much, you have good enough base damage that with a Sheen, Nashor's and Berserker's you'd still be completely useful.

Sure, you're absolute glass, but that's why you use Varus' range plus Flash or Ghost, etc. His ultimate isn't a big deal, it's nice that it gets the 1.0 AP ratio, but the main purpose is just to proc Blight and give you more damage, it's hardly needed to kill a target, seeing as how DFG + 3 Blight stacks is (IIRC on DFG's damage calculation) 96% of the target's max HP in magic damage. Even with 50% damage reduction that's still an insane amount of burst, and it takes you just under five seconds to do it all.
