Except for rare builds, Senna deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Varus deals mainly physical damage (71.17%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.
Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Varus, ranking 11th (versus 28th for Senna) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.3 versus 3.0) suggests they are less effective in team fights.
Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Senna player to maintain constant pressure on Varus, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
