View detailed statistics below: items, runes, and counter builds for Varus ADC vs Nilah ADC in patch 15.15 (25.15), including win rates and pick rates. With proper study, this can improve your chances of victory up to 56.0% in this matchup.
Varus maintains steady 5.0% popularity but rarely encounters niche pick Nilah (2.1%, 22nd place out of 30 ADC champions). While not a priority matchup to study, understanding it protects against off-meta cheese picks that can catch you unprepared. Challenging situation: Varus's weak 47.3% overall win rate compounds with this difficult matchup, creating serious obstacles for climbing. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Press the Attack + Triumph combination (56.4% win rate) plus optimal itemization Blade of The Ruined King, Guinsoo's Rageblade, Wit's End, and Berserker's Greaves boosts your chances from 45.5% to 56.0% - potentially game-changing.
Farm your way back: Varus's superior farming (7.41 vs 7.35/min, 6th among ADC) offers a comeback path. Focus on safe CSing and capitalize on your 0.06 CS/min natural advantage. Damage doesn't equal wins: Varus outputs more damage (871 vs 702/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup. The issue likely lies in survivability, mobility, or damage timing rather than raw output. Strong individual performance: Varus maintains better KDA (2.30, 20th place vs 22nd for Nilah), but loses the matchup overall. High KDA without wins suggests difficulty translating individual advantages into victory conditions.
Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.
Except for rare builds, Varus deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Nilah deals mainly physical damage (95.06%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.
An important advantage of Varus is higher farming statistics (ranked 6th among role champions) (versus 7th for Nilah), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.2 versus 2.3) suggests they are less effective in team fights.
In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Varus player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Nilah player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.
