Guide to Synergizing Lulu and Varus

Tips for Playing as Lulu with Varus

Glitterlance can be fired at odd angles depending on where your cursor is - Moving your cursor closer to Pix and Lulu will change your area of effect size considerably.

Consider casting Help, Pix! on ranged attackers for the Pix boost and Wild Growth on Tanks or Fighters for the added initiation power.

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.

How to Play with Varus as Lulu in LoL

The Lulu Varus synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Varus, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Lulu sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Varus. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This drop shows that Varus helps Lulu perform worse in ranked League matches. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is only marginal.

This could indicate that Varus doesn't help protection for her to deal more damage or that his allyship also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Lulu is played together with Varus on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays without Varus. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Varus.

Moreover, when Lulu plays with Varus on the same side, she on average receives a little less damage than when she plays alone. Taking not as much damage may mean that Varus does a decent job of protecting Lulu during teamfights.

By being on the same side as Lulu, he lowers their win rate by -0.9% to 46.0%. This signals that there is a weak bond between Lulu and Varus that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.

Varus has a much lower diffuclty than Lulu. That means you don't need to be very careful when finding Varus teammates to play with, as they will need a much lower level of skill to be able to play well with you.

When playing cooperatively, you should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to destroy wih physical damage. Combined, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Regardless of the skill of your Varus teammate, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
