so 1st and foremost Varus is my favorite champ. that being said when i first started playing league and got Varus other people would never play him. It was very rare that i ever saw another Varus player but in the past month or so its like ever 3rd game i play there is another Varus. now the reason im posting this is because i wanna know why. What's the deal with the sudden change of more and more people in these matches picking Varus? If any one can explain to me this i would be very thankful.

p.s. im sorry for the round about way i asked that question

edit: yea i know he's free this week but i noticed this like a month ago

Free. Week.

Mainly because people got all excited about Runaan's Hurricane on him.. but now it's more like a meh item, for me at least. And yeah, free week.
