Varus is the most underpowered champion in the game, bar none. He is like Miss Fortune divided by Vayne divided by Kogmaw divided by Ezreal divided by Morgana divided by Urgot to the root of Teemo.

His Q is the must underpowered skill in the game, he can poke anyone from some places with little chance to retaliate, but to do it's job, proccing W, he has to wait on using it till he's in range of the other champ. If you manage to escape, him charging it while he's slowed means you can run faster than it's range increases, letting you get away.

His W makes him the same as Twitch and Kog'maw. Late game he's completely beatable, just like them. (off parody, it's magic damage, which, oddly enough, is reduced by magic resist)

His E is the reason he's... well, just like Miss Fortune or Gangplank or any other aoe slow. yada yada yada other games not LoL. Just... don't stand in the fire, k? Having a Varus on your team guarantees a Varus on your team, doing Varus things. (lolpuns)

As if this wasn't enough, his R is a slow skillshot, which means it can miss! Clearly Riot was thinking about balance on this one. It should at least stun the entire team, not just snare them!

Just in case you thought Varus was any good, check out that passive!
