Sivir

Sivir+1

spell shield timingpoke mitigation Sivir holds a massive advantage because her Spell Shield reactively negates your Chain of Corruption, stripping away your primary tool for securing kills or self-peeling. Additionally, her Ricochet bounces make hiding in the wave unsafe, while her Fleet of Foot passive gives her the burst of speed needed to dodge your Piercing Arrow charges, turning your long-range threat into a guessing game.

Sivir

Por qué

Sivir holds a massive advantage because her Spell Shield reactively negates your Chain of Corruption, stripping away your primary tool for securing kills or self-peeling. Additionally, her Ricochet bounces make hiding in the wave unsafe, while her Fleet of Foot passive gives her the burst of speed needed to dodge your Piercing Arrow charges, turning your long-range threat into a guessing game.

Impacto en la línea

This interaction shifts the lane pressure entirely to Sivir. She can aggressively shove waves using Ricochet and Boomerang Blade, knowing she is immune to your ultimate setup. You are forced to farm under turret, bleeding plate gold, because attempting to lock her down with Chain of Corruption only results in her getting healed and gaining movement speed, leaving you vulnerable to a counter-engage.

Cómo jugar

To survive and outplay Sivir, you must treat your Chain of Corruption as a forbidden button until her Spell Shield is burned. Instead, use Hail of Arrows to apply a slow and force her to reactively pop her shield, or charge Piercing Arrow and cancel the release to bait it out. Only unleash your ultimate during the twenty-second window when her shield is on cooldown, maximizing your Blighted Quiver burst.

While Ashe seeks to wear you down with Volley and freeze you from afar with Enchanted Crystal Arrow, your strength lies in retaliating with Piercing Arrow and initiating a faster burst.

While Ashe seeks to wear you down with Volley and freeze you from afar with Enchanted Crystal Arrow, your strength lies in retaliating with Piercing Arrow and initiating a faster burst. Your Chain of Corruption acts instantly to lock her down for a quick kill, whereas her ultimate relies on distance to maximize its stun duration.

Impacto en la línea

You both struggle with mobility, meaning every trade hinges on landing poke. Ashe uses Frost Shot to slow your retreats, making you vulnerable to her Ranger's Focus barrage. Meanwhile, your Hail of Arrows reduces her healing and slows her in return, matching her push. If either of you misses their signature crowd control ultimate, the other player immediately secures total control over the lane's pressure.

Cómo jugar

Stand behind your minion wave to block Volley, then immediately charge Piercing Arrow while she is on cooldown. If she activates Ranger's Focus, do not take extended auto-attack trades; instead, use Hail of Arrows to slow her and back off. Always hold Chain of Corruption until she attempts to cast Enchanted Crystal Arrow at close range, using your faster projectile speed to interrupt her offensive momentum and burst her down with Blighted Quiver active.

When Jhin fires his fourth guaranteed critical shot, his temporary passive movement speed burst is his primary tool to sidestep your Piercing Arrow.

When Jhin fires his fourth guaranteed critical shot, his temporary passive movement speed burst is his primary tool to sidestep your Piercing Arrow. If you release your arrow too predictably, he will easily dodge it and instantly chain his own Deadly Flourish to root you in place, turning a neutral poke trade into a lethal burst window.

Impacto en la línea

Because both of you possess immense long-range clear via Piercing Arrow and Dancing Grenade, the minion wave rarely remains static. Every trade is played at maximum range. If Jhin successfully baits your Piercing Arrow and retaliates with Deadly Flourish, you lose all lane priority, forcing you to farm under turret. Conversely, landing your arrow on him while his Whisper speed is down establishes dominant chip damage that denies his recall timings.

Cómo jugar

Do not charge Piercing Arrow when Jhin is holding his fourth Whisper shot, as his impending movement speed makes you miss. Instead, wait for him to waste that final bullet on a minion. The moment his speed boost decays, channel your arrow or slow him down with Hail of Arrows to guarantee the hit. If he tries to channel Curtain Call, immediately look to interrupt him with Chain of Corruption or use the root to lock him down before he can fire.

Everything hinges on whether Draven can activate Blood Rush to outmaneuver your Piercing Arrow and Chain of Corruption.

If he successfully dodges these abilities, his high-damage Spinning Axe attacks will easily shred you in an all-in, while hitting your skillshots neutralizes his aggressive lane dominance.

Impacto en la línea

The lane remains highly volatile with constant tension around minion waves. You must use Hail of Arrows to disrupt Draven's pathing when he tries to catch his Spinning Axe, forcing him to choose between losing his damage source or taking heavy damage. Failing to establish this distance allows Draven to chase you down with Stand Aside, triggering League of Draven cashouts that completely snowball the dragon lane.

Cómo jugar

To win, never release Piercing Arrow blindly. Instead, aim it directly at the landing indicators of his Spinning Axe when his Blood Rush is on cooldown, forcing him into predictable movement. Hold your Chain of Corruption defensively; never fire it as an initiator unless Draven has already wasted his movement speed buff. If he activates his speed to rush you, drop Hail of Arrows directly on yourself to slow his advance and disengage safely.

While Corki relies on hitting Phosphorus Bomb and stacking Missile Barrage to trade, your Piercing Arrow combined with Blighted Quiver deals far more devastating poke from a safer distance.

While Corki relies on hitting Phosphorus Bomb and stacking Missile Barrage to trade, your Piercing Arrow combined with Blighted Quiver deals far more devastating poke from a safer distance. The crucial advantage lies in your ultimate: Chain of Corruption can catch Corki mid-air during his Valkyrie dash, completely shutting down his only escape tool and exposing him to a lethal follow-up.

Impacto en la línea

Because you dominate the range dynamic, you easily secure wave control. Corki is forced to use Phosphorus Bomb or Gatling Gun on minions rather than on you, draining his mana. When his package Hextech Munitions is inactive, you can aggressively push him under tower. He cannot safely use Valkyrie forward to trade because the constant threat of your Chain of Corruption forces him into a defensive posture.

Cómo jugar

Position yourself diagonally to the minion wave to align clear snipes with Piercing Arrow without taking return damage from Missile Barrage. Keep your distance when Corki carries his Hextech Munitions package. Crucially, never initiate a trade with your ultimate. Instead, bait his defensive Valkyrie by charging Piercing Arrow, and immediately release Chain of Corruption to intercept him mid-dash. If you miss, immediately back off.

While Caitlyn relies on her high basic attack range and Piltover Peacemaker to chip away at you, your Piercing Arrow outranges her and inflicts far heavier damage when charged.

While Caitlyn relies on her high basic attack range and Piltover Peacemaker to chip away at you, your Piercing Arrow outranges her and inflicts far heavier damage when charged. Her primary defense against your ultimate, Chain of Corruption, is her 90 Caliber Net, meaning she must constantly split her focus between dodging your snipes and saving her movement tool.

Impacto en la línea

Because your poke is deadlier, you can easily control the minion waves. Caitlyn cannot safely set up her Yordle Snap Trap line without exposing herself to a fully charged Piercing Arrow. You will consistently force her to use her healing fruits or recall early, giving you massive tower plate pressure and locking her down under her own turret while you safely secure dragon priority for your team.

Cómo jugar

Position yourself diagonally to the minion wave to ensure your Piercing Arrow hits her directly without its damage being reduced by passing through minions. When trading, activate Blighted Quiver to maximize the burst on your arrows. Hold your Chain of Corruption until you see her waste 90 Caliber Net offensively, or use it from the brush to catch her off-guard, preventing her from reacting in time to escape the root.

Akshan

Akshan−1

cc interruptpoke pressure The matchup revolves entirely around Akshan's mobility and Varus's ability to shut it down. Akshan relies heavily on Heroic Swing to engage, reposition, or escape. However, Varus holds a massive advantage because his ultimate, Chain of Corruption, can hit Akshan mid-air during his swing. This immediately halts his momentum, leaving him completely rooted, unable to finish his trajectory, and exposed to massive burst. Ver detalles

However, Varus holds a massive advantage because his ultimate, Chain of Corruption, can hit Akshan mid-air during his swing. This immediately halts his momentum, leaving him completely rooted, unable to finish his trajectory, and exposed to massive burst.

Impacto en la línea

Because Akshan knows you can lock him down, he cannot freely use Heroic Swing to clear waves or trade aggressively. This gives you control over the minion wave, letting you stack Living Vengeance on minions to easily push him under tower. You can constantly chip away at his health with Piercing Arrow and Hail of Arrows whenever he steps up to use Avengerang, forcing him into bad recall timings.

Cómo jugar

Never initiate trades with Chain of Corruption while Akshan has his swing available; instead, hold your ultimate as an active counter-engage tool. Position yourself near terrain to bait his Heroic Swing, and the moment he hooks onto a wall, fire your ultimate directly into his path. Once he is rooted, stack three stacks of Blighted Quiver with basic attacks before detonating them with a fully charged Piercing Arrow to secure the kill.

Por qué

This perpetual pressure forces him to hold onto Arcane Shift solely to react to your Chain of Corruption, effectively neutralizing his ability to play aggressively or trade effectively.

Impacto en la línea

Keeping the wave permanently shoved denies Ezreal any lane priority and chips away at his tower. While he is locked down trying to secure last hits, you can freely charge Piercing Arrow to poke him down. Furthermore, keeping a thick minion wave between you completely blocks his Essence Flux and Mystic Shot attempts, keeping your health bar completely safe.

Cómo jugar

Always position behind your minion wave to absorb his Mystic Shot. Cast Hail of Arrows on the caster minions and Ezreal simultaneously to slow him and secure the push. Never throw Chain of Corruption blindly; instead, hold it to force him to keep Arcane Shift on cooldown. If he ever uses his blink offensively, instantly activate Blighted Quiver and release a fully charged Piercing Arrow to chunk his health bar.

This makes her an incredibly easy target for Chain of Corruption, which completely shuts down her primary teamfight damage source from a safe distance.

Impacto en la línea

This poke advantage translates into total control over the minion waves. By combining Hail of Arrows to slow her down and pop Blighted Quiver stacks, you force her to play defensively behind her minions. Miss Fortune cannot safely step up to use Love Tap on the wave without taking massive damage, securing you early tower pressure and allowing your support to roam freely while she is stuck under turret.

Cómo jugar

Always position yourself outside the diagonal bounce angle of her Double Up to avoid cheap poke. During skirmishes, save Chain of Corruption specifically to react to her Bullet Time; do not throw it preemptively. If she starts her ultimate, immediately lock her down with your root, then quickly follow up with a fully charged Piercing Arrow. If you miss your ultimate, immediately back away using Hail of Arrows to slow her advance and reset the fight.

If Lucian successfully dodges these heavy-hitting spells, his Lightslinger passive allows him to burst you down in quick skirmishes. Otherwise, Varus's poke safely dismantles Lucian's shorter range.

Impacto en la línea

You hold the lane priority because Hail of Arrows and Piercing Arrow keep Lucian from stepping up to the wave without taking heavy damage. To contest, Lucian must attempt aggressive dashes. This constant threat forces Lucian to play defensively, losing gold under his tower, unless he finds a flank or catches you out of position when your ultimate is on cooldown.

Cómo jugar

Never launch Piercing Arrow or Chain of Corruption proactively while Lucian has Relentless Pursuit available. Instead, abuse your auto-attack range and Hail of Arrows to apply Blighted Quiver stacks. Force him to use his dash defensively or to close the gap. Once he commits Relentless Pursuit, immediately fire your ultimate or a fully charged arrow to lock him down and pop the stacks for an easy kill.

Because her engage is highly predictable and reliant on this speed boost, you can easily shut down her approach.

Impacto en la línea

You will constantly push Kai'Sa under her turret using Hail of Arrows and long-range Piercing Arrow snipes. She cannot contest the wave because standing near her minions leaves her vulnerable to your poke, while isolating herself makes her an easy target for Chain of Corruption. This pressure forces her to waste Void Seeker just to secure last hits, preventing her from ever building Second Skin stacks on you or finding comfortable recall windows.

Cómo jugar

Position yourself behind your own minion wave to dilute the damage of her Icathian Rain if she tries to slide forward. Always hold your Chain of Corruption and fully charged Piercing Arrow until you see her activate Supercharge. Once she commits her movement speed, aim your skillshots slightly behind her projected path to catch her, or detonate Blighted Quiver stacks with Hail of Arrows to slow her down first. If she uses Killer Instinct to dive, immediately drop your ultimate directly onto yourself.

Impacto en la línea

You dictate the wave state by constantly threatening her with Piercing Arrow and Hail of Arrows. Because Xayah must step up to drop feathers with Double Daggers, you can punish her every time she tries to farm. This constant damage pressure forces her to play defensively, preventing her from activating Deadly Plumage for aggressive trades, which ultimately starves her of gold and secures you early tower plates.

Cómo jugar

Stand diagonally to the minion wave to ensure her Double Daggers and Clean Cuts feathers don't line up behind you, keeping you safe from Bladecaller. When trading, apply Blighted Quiver stacks with basic attacks, then detonate them with Hail of Arrows. Never initiate a fight with Chain of Corruption; instead, use your basic attacks and Piercing Arrow to force her to panic-cast Featherstorm defensively. Once she lands, she is a sitting duck for your ultimate.

This range differential allows you to dictate the wave state from safety. By using Hail of Arrows, you can simultaneously slow Tristana and ruin her attempts to farm under tower, where her passive Draw a Bead makes last-hitting chaotic. Tristana is forced to play defensively, bleeding health to your Piercing Arrow, which delays her scaling and prevents her from securing early dragon priority for her team.

Cómo jugar

Never throw Chain of Corruption preemptively; hold it as an absolute deterrent. Stand near your caster minions to bait her forward. If she initiates with Rocket Jump to apply Explosive Charge, fire Chain of Corruption mid-air or immediately upon her landing to cancel her momentum. Follow up with Hail of Arrows to reduce her healing and trigger your Blighted Quiver stacks with a fully charged Piercing Arrow for an easy execution.

You command early wave pressure because your ranged attacks and Hail of Arrows force Samira to farm under tower, exposing her to constant Piercing Arrow snipes. However, if she successfully blocks your ultimate, the dynamic flips instantly. She will aggressively dash forward using Wild Rush to stack her Daredevil Impulse up to Inferno Trigger, turning your lane dominance into a deadly grey screen.

Cómo jugar

Force her hand by charging Piercing Arrow to bait out her Blade Whirl before you ever cast Chain of Corruption. Once her defensive spin is on its long cooldown, you can freely unleash your ultimate to root her in place. If she initiates with Wild Rush while her protective barrier is still available, immediately disengage horizontally to avoid her Daredevil Impulse knock-up, and delay your crowd control until her spin ends.

This allows you to easily charge up a maximum-range Piercing Arrow and detonate any Blighted Quiver stacks without her being able to dodge.

Impacto en la línea

In the early levels, Kalista tries to secure wave priority by executing minions with Rend. You can easily disrupt this rhythm by throwing Hail of Arrows to slow her dashes and apply Grievous Wounds, reducing any healing she relies on. Because she must constantly move to trade, your long-range poke forces her into awkward retreat angles. Once you unlock your ultimate, she cannot step up to contest the wave without risking a fatal immobilization.

Cómo jugar

To win this matchup, never throw your Piercing Arrow blindly while Kalista is hopping around with Martial Poise. Instead, hold your Piercing Arrow and use your basic attacks to apply Blighted Quiver stacks. Wait for her to commit forward to throw Pierce, then immediately lock her down with Chain of Corruption. While she is rooted, fully charge your arrow for a guaranteed burst. If she uses Fate's Call to save her support or engage, retreat safely and reset your positioning behind your minion wave.

Because Twitch fears your ultimate, he must play far behind his minions, severely limiting his ability to use Venom Cask to contest the wave. You can easily keep him pinned under his turret. This allows you to safely charge Piercing Arrow from maximum distance, chipping his health down without fear of retaliation, which forces him into terrible recall timings and loses him turret plates.

Cómo jugar

Always stand just behind your own ranged minions to bait Twitch into revealing himself with Ambush. Never throw Chain of Corruption blindly into the fog; hold it specifically for the moment he appears. If he opens with Venom Cask to slow you, immediately deploy Hail of Arrows at your feet to apply Grievous Wounds and slow his retreat, then follow up with Blighted Quiver empowered basic attacks to pop his stacks.

Once pinned there, her ability to dodge your charged Piercing Arrow with Tumble is heavily compromised due to the lack of room to maneuver around the tower.

You dictate the tempo of the laning phase from the first wave. By constantly shoving the minions into her turret, you deny her the ability to use Night Hunter to chase you down. Vayne is forced to waste her mana and Tumble just to secure last hits under tower. This pressure chips away at her health and tower plates, keeping her trapped in lane and unable to assist her jungler in the river.

Cómo jugar

Constantly push with Hail of Arrows to keep Vayne trapped. When she goes to hit a minion under her turret, immediately charge Piercing Arrow and aim it at her feet; the narrow terrain makes it incredibly hard for her to dodge even with Tumble. Hold your Chain of Corruption to lock her down if she tries to turn with Final Hour, and always stand away from terrain to deny her a stun from Condemn.

By keeping the minions in the middle or slowly pushing, you force Jinx to burn mana using Switcheroo!'s rocket launcher just to keep up. She is forced to play defensively behind her minions to shield herself from Chain of Corruption. This constant pressure denies her Get Excited! triggers, keeping her trapped under tower and bleeding gold.

Cómo jugar

To secure your lead, charge Piercing Arrow from the brush to catch her off-guard when she stops to auto-attack. If Jinx tries to farm from afar using Fishbones, punish her with Hail of Arrows to slow her down and reduce any healing. Hold Chain of Corruption for the moment she overextends or when she tries to cast Zap!, as her self-root during that animation makes her a sitting duck for an easy ultimate-led execution.

Cómo contrarrestar a este campeón

Ángulo de contra

Hacer counter a Varus no consiste solo en esquivar su Q. El objetivo real es romper la preparación que hace que su poke sea peligroso: evitar que cargue libremente, forzar su ultimate a la defensiva o comprometerse con un all-in antes de que haya desgastado la lane y asegurado la visión. Varus es especialmente vulnerable cuando tiene que mirar en una dirección para cargar su disparo. Los buenos matchups contra él aprovechan ese momento: mediante engage directo, burst o presión en lane que le impida convertir el poke en control de objetivos. Si Varus juega cómodo alrededor de los cuellos de botella, la partida se vuelve difícil rápidamente.

Contexto del parche

Varus sufre contra campeones que acortan el tiempo entre la decisión y el contacto. Su E ralentiza, su ultimate inmoviliza, su Q amenaza desde lejos, pero todo ello requiere una lectura previa. Cuando el enemigo entra rápido, fuerza su Flash o ataca desde un ángulo que no puede cubrir mientras carga, Varus pierde su mejor recurso: el control antes de la pelea. Por lo tanto, los counters más efectivos no intentan ganar una guerra de poke larga. Comprimen el espacio, castigan sus animaciones y obligan a Varus a elegir entre disparar y sobrevivir.

Lectura rápida

  • Castigar a Varus mientras carga la Q suele ser mejor que simplemente esperar a que dispare.
  • Forzar su ultimate de forma defensiva antes de un objetivo reduce enormemente su capacidad para crear un pick.
  • Los all-ins cortos, los ángulos laterales y la presión en lane le impiden establecer su ritmo de poke.

Arquetipos de contra

Engage directo y bloqueo de la lane

Varus quiere crear distancia, cargar la Q y elegir cuándo se vuelve amenazante. Un engage directo rompe esa lógica: si lo atrapan antes de colocar la E o usar la ultimate, no tiene dash para reconstruir el trade. Leona ilustra bien este problema porque convierte un pequeño error de espaciado en un all-in inmediato. Incluso si Varus tiene poke, debe respetar constantemente el rango de engage, lo que reduce su capacidad para avanzar y presionar la lane.

Cómo se adapta el campeón. Varus debe jugar más cerca de su torre, guardar la E para ralentizar la entrada en lugar de usarla para poke gratuito, y cargar la Q solo cuando el engage principal esté fuera de rango o ya se haya usado. Su ultimate a menudo debe permanecer disponible como un botón de anti-all-in.

Burst y acceso a la backline

Varus es peligroso mientras pueda mantener las amenazas frente a él. Los asesinos o perfiles de burst que alcanzan su posición cambian completamente la ecuación: no necesitan que falle la Q, lo obligan a sobrevivir a una ventana corta. Zed es especialmente problemático porque Varus a menudo tiene que elegir entre usar la ultimate para crear una jugada o guardarla para detener la ejecución. Si pierde el Flash o el Stasis antes de un objetivo, su poke se vuelve mucho más difícil de usar de forma segura.

Cómo se adapta el campeón. Varus debe trackear la posición de la amenaza antes de cada Q cargada. Si no puede ver al asesino, no debe dar un paso adelante para hacer poke. Stasis, Exhaust o Barrier ganan valor, y la ultimate debe guardarse para frenar la entrada en lugar de buscar un catch arriesgado.

Presión de lane y trades que rompen su tempo

A Varus le gustan las lanes donde puede preparar sus tiros y elegir sus ventanas de poke. Los oponentes que fuerzan trades más rápidos o simples le impiden jugar a su ritmo preferido. Lucian puede acortar el intercambio, Jhin puede castigar rutas predecibles y Miss Fortune puede disputar la oleada sin exponerse tanto tiempo. Esta presión obliga a Varus a usar hechizos para sobrevivir o controlar la oleada, en lugar de guardarlos para preparar un objetivo o construir una ventaja real.

Cómo se adapta el campeón. Varus debe aceptar jugar algunas oleadas más lentamente. Debe proteger su maná, evitar cargas de Q demasiado ambiciosas y buscar poke cuando el oponente da el last-hit o cuando su support puede cubrir el espacio.

Emparejamientos prioritarios

Leona

Leona es un matchup prioritario de entender porque ataca exactamente la debilidad de Varus: su necesidad de tiempo. Ella no intenta ganar una guerra de poke; intenta convertir una carga de Q o un paso de más en un engage completo. Varus debe, por tanto, jugar alrededor de los cooldowns de Leona antes de jugar alrededor de su propio daño. Si su E o su ultimate se usan demasiado pronto, Leona puede forzar la siguiente pelea con poca resistencia.

Zed

Zed cambia la forma en que Varus debe usar su kit. En muchos matchups, la ultimate se puede usar para hacer engage o atrapar a un objetivo mal posicionado. Contra Zed, ese botón a menudo se convierte en un seguro de vida. La cuestión no es solo acertar la Q antes de la pelea, sino evitar el ángulo donde Varus está cargando, mirando hacia otro lado y no tiene respuesta inmediata. Un buen timing de Stasis y el posicionamiento importan tanto como el daño.

Errores comunes en su contra

Errores comunes en su contra

  • Esperar pasivamente a que Varus falle la Q en lugar de amenazarlo durante la carga.
  • Entrar a los objetivos por pasillos sin visión, dándole a Varus sus mejores ángulos de poke y de ultimate.
  • Usar el engage en su frontline mientras Varus aún conserva la ultimate y puede castigar una entrada agrupada.
  • Permitir que Varus convierta una lane neutral en un asedio gratuito porque nunca se disputa la oleada lo suficientemente temprano.
  • Subestimar su E: el slow y el anti-heal pueden ser suficientes para perder un trade o fallar una retirada.

Notas del coach

  • Contra Varus, la mejor defensa suele ser cambiar el timing de la pelea. No le des treinta segundos para cargar la Q, colocar la E y elegir su ultimate.
  • Si fuerzas su Flash antes del dragón, no te retires mentalmente: esa suele ser la ventana real para el próximo engage, incluso si todavía tiene daño.

FAQ

¿Cómo se castiga a Varus en lane?

Debes castigarlo mientras prepara su poke, no solo después de que falle. Durante la carga de una Q, Varus a menudo reduce su libertad de movimiento y revela su intención. Si tu campeón puede hacer engage, un trade corto o disputar la oleada en ese momento, lo obligas a elegir entre disparar y retroceder. Cuanto antes rompas su tempo de lane, menos podrá preparar los objetivos con maná, vida y prioridad.

¿Se debe hacer engage a Varus siempre que se le vea?

No, porque Varus puede dar la vuelta a un engage mal agrupado con su ultimate, especialmente en un pasillo. Debes hacer engage cuando su ángulo de escape sea limitado, cuando su support no pueda cubrirlo o cuando su ultimate ya haya sido forzada. El objetivo no es correr hacia él en línea recta, sino reducir el espacio donde puede cargar la Q y castigar tu entrada antes del contacto.

¿Por qué son peligrosos los choke points contra Varus?

Los choke points hacen que Varus sea mucho más fácil de jugar. Cuando varios enemigos caminan por el mismo pasillo, su Q se vuelve más difícil de esquivar, su E ralentiza múltiples caminos y su ultimate puede propagarse o forzar el pánico colectivo. Contra él, es mejor entrar desde múltiples ángulos cuando sea posible, colocar visión antes de agruparse y evitar comenzar el objetivo desde una posición ya comprimida.

¿Cómo se juega contra Varus una vez que tiene Muramana?

Una vez que Muramana está activa, debes dejar de darle intercambios gratuitos antes de los objetivos. Su Q y su E se vuelven mucho más costosas de absorber, por lo que la respuesta debe venir del tempo: fuerza una rotación rápida, amenaza su flanco o haz engage antes de que haya colocado dos o tres hechizos. Si dejas que dispare libremente durante la preparación, entrarás a la pelea con muy poca vida para disputar adecuadamente.
