Strengths

is used, Sand Soldiers cannot move for a while, which can be punished.
Weak at level 1 since he only has access to
W
until level 2.

has a longer cooldown of 22 seconds at rank 1. Once used, he can be punished.
Forcing Azir to use
R
defensively lowers his teamfighting potential since he won't have any playmaking capabilities.
