Twitch vs Varus Counter Pick
Matchup Summary
What the Data Means
Two very different profiles meet in the ADC lane: Twitch the marksman/assassin hybrid, Varus the marksman/mage hybrid. Over 859 ranked games on patch 16.13.1, Twitch closes out 55.1% of them. Being 5.1 points clear of the 50% line makes Varus a favourable draw for Twitch.
This is a ranged mirror in terms of reach — 550 versus 575 — so spacing matters less than ability timing.
A missed Spray and Pray from Twitch hands Varus the window to land Blighted Quiver. Spray and Pray and Chain of Corruption are the two buttons that end the exchange outright.
Shared damage type here — physical for Twitch as well as Varus. The stat sheet reads 630 HP and 27 armour for Twitch against 600 and 24 for Varus. Scaling matters as well: Twitch ends on 2296 HP, Varus on 2385.
A 6/10 difficulty rating on Twitch, against 2/10, means the sample includes plenty of players still learning it. No hand-editing here — the Twitch figures come straight from ranked play.
