Guide to Synergizing Jayce and Varus

Tips for Playing as Jayce with Varus

For increased range and damage, try casting Shock Blast through the Acceleration Gate.

If you find yourself taking lots of damage, try using Jayce's Hammer Stance, as it grants you additional defenses.

Be sure to switch stances often. It will enhance your attacks and grant you quick bursts of speed.

Advice to Understand How Varus Will Play

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.
