Guide to Countering Kled as Varus

Tips for Playing as Varus against Kled

Try to take advantage of Piercing Arrow's very long range to snipe at enemy champions before a fight or as they're trying to flee.

An early point in Blighted Quiver helps harass enemy champions and get killing blows on minions.

During short range fights it's sometimes best to fire Piercing Arrow quickly, rather than charging it to full power.

Advice to Win Against Kled

Watch Kled's courage bar when he's off his mount - when it reaches 100%, he will remount and regain a significant amount of health.

Kled is much more threatening when he has Violent Tendencies ready.

Kled generates courage by damaging enemies with his Pocket Pistol and basic attacks, killing minions, and attacking structures or epic monsters.
