I like his concept and his kit, but I don't see him being a problem. He seems like a balanced AD carry-esque champion. His passive seems pretty decent in-lane for better exchanges with purely autoattacks and for perhaps snowballing in a teamfight without minions. His kit doesn't say OP though in my opinion.

He does have that long range Q, which I think is a pretty cool skill in itself, but I don't think it's that powerful, it takes time to charge up, with which you must remain stationary, and I could see it being a decent poke, but nothing ridiculous. Is a good skill to try to pull off a buff steal though.

Blight. I like the idea. Seems fairly decent against somewhat tanky targets, though having to use an ability to pop the stacks could leave you wishing you had saved that skill against someone more potent like a carry.

His E. Probably his most reliable way to pop his Blight and poke people with. In my opinion, his most reliable non-ultimate move, though I prefer his Q myself.

His ultimate. Not to damaging when you look at the damage output, and the fact that it scales with AP, but the CC it provides could be redonkculous if used well. More like a utility ultimate like Ashe, but more group oriented, but without the hard stun. Seems like a gamechanger in a teamfight.

Overall, Varus looks fairly decent to me. He doesn't seem like he'll be top-tier AD, but he doesn't seem like he'll be low-tier AD.
