Key takeaways
- Current data slightly favors Ahri, but the sample is too limited for a strong conclusion: Varus wins 42.9% of 21 games (95% range 24.5–63.5%).
- Both champions' overall Mid win rates predict 49.1% for Varus; the result is within the margin of error of that, so this matchup mostly reflects the two champions' general strength.
How we calculate this
Games: ranked Solo/Duo and Flex games on the North America server from the patch shown. Remakes (games under 5 minutes) are excluded.
A game only counts when Varus and Ahri played the same position on opposite teams, so roaming, lane swaps within a team or a champion merely being in the same game never count as this matchup.
The 95% range is a Wilson score interval. Confidence comes from how wide that range is: within ±3 points is very high, ±5 high, ±8 moderate, anything wider low. Below 20 games a matchup is not classified at all.
Expected win rate combines both champions’ win rates in this lane (same games and filters) with the log5 formula: E = A(1−B) / (A(1−B) + B(1−A)). Matchup effect = observed − expected.
"What changes" compares Varus's choices in this matchup with the same champion's other games in the same lane, and lists a change only when it is at least 3 points and statistically significant (two-proportion z-test, |z| ≥ 2, 20+ games).
Results are not split by rank: the sample per rank is too small for honest per-rank matchup numbers.

Best Varus Build vs Ahri
Usual Varus build (Mid)
50.0% win rate · 6 games
Against Ahri
Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 0 of 17 Varus games against Ahri carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Varus's standard build instead.
Builds are ranked by the lower edge of their win rate range, not the raw win rate, so a build seen in a handful of wins never outranks a proven one.
