Guide to Synergizing Kindred and Varus

Tips for Playing as Kindred with Varus

Pick which Hunts you want to pursue carefully; getting many of them is the key to success as the game goes on.

Don't go in first to a large team fight. Wait for your teammates to initiate.

Moving around between attacks while jungling will help you avoid damage and also generate more heals from Wolf's Frenzy.

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.
