Guide to Synergizing Varus and Tryndamere

Tips for Playing as Varus with Tryndamere

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.

Advice to Understand How Tryndamere Will Play

Delaying the activation of Undying Rage is a very effective way to make an enemy champion over-commit to trying to kill you.

If the enemy is stacking Armor, try building items like Last Whisper or Youmuu's Ghostblade.

Bloodlust is an excellent way to heal Tryndamere. Try not to let it fade off before you activate it.

This shows that there is a weak strategic relationship between Varus and Tryndamere that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

Tryndamere has a greater difficulty than Varus. That means you must be cautious when finding Tryndamere comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a greater level of skill to play well with you.
