Varus has no problems on MonoDamage builds(be either AP or AD) because his scalings by themselves are strong enough that Varus in a Hybrid build wouldn't do that much for him.

What he needs is to specialized in an area that his kit can work, because as it stands, he is literally a blank ADC that has no identity and cannot compete with more specialized carries in the same role as him. He doesn't do Hybrid damage, he isn't an optimal tankbuster, he can't play a proper poke game, his dueling and DPS are subpar to say the least and his damage, overall, for an inmobile ADC with no reposition tool or kiting tools is not up there. The only thing he has going for him is the fact that he has a strong teamfighting thanks to Runaans applying Blighter Quiver, meaning that Chain of Corruption and Hail of Arrows can proc multiple Blight stacks on multiple enemies and Chain of Corruption itself. What else he has besides that? Nothing.

For as much as Ashe lacks damage, she comes forth by having loads of utility in an Gold Generating Steroid, vision, Global Engage and AoE Slow + PermaSlow. She is an especialized carry that does her job and does her job WELL. Varus can't even hold his own in teamfights, his strong point.
