Key Insights

If Azir hits an enemy champion during
E
, the dash ends and he gains a charge of
W
.
E
's dash can be extended with
Q
.
P
's turret loses 100 Armor if Azir dies or moves too far away.
W
's Sand Soldiers last 10 seconds but expire twice as quickly if they're under an enemy turret.

Strengths

Excels with items that enhance his magic damage, survivability, and control.
Scales well and has a strong laning phase. Level 2 with
Q
lets him reposition Sand Soldiers to deal damage and zone the enemy.
W
's bonus attack speed is doubled for 5 seconds when 3 Sand Soldiers are out at once, giving him a huge temporary damage spike.
Spikes at level 13 with both
Q
and
W
maxed. The lower cooldown and recharge timer, respectively, allow Azir to play aggressively from a safer distance.

Weaknesses

Forcing Azir to use
R
defensively lowers his teamfighting potential since he won't have any playmaking capabilities.
Once
Q
is used, Sand Soldiers cannot move for a while, which can be punished.
E
has a longer cooldown of 22 seconds at rank 1. Once used, he can be punished.
Weak at level 1 since he only has access to
W
until level 2.
