User blog comment:The5lacker/Varus is not a normal AD carry/@comment-3974211-20130612202205

I'm just going to ignore the part where you said that and  would have comparable builds, because they are very different champions.

As for Varus, both builds are viable. It's arguable that ADC Varus is more viable, but I'm not willing to debate it. It's like comparing AD Kayle, AP Kayle, Hybrid Kayle and AS Kayle. Quite frankly, I prefer ADC Varus' play style because I don't think he can reliably apply Blight stacks with the AD/lifesteal to back it up.
