Tips for Playing as Varus with Vex
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.

Overall, Varus sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Vex. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN.

This difference may indicate that Vex does not help protection for him to deal more damage or that their presence also helps extend the game's duration.

This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Vex.
Moreover, when Varus plays with Vex on the same team, he usually takes a little more damage than when he plays alone. Receiving more damage could indicate that Vex does a poor job of covering Varus during teamfights.
