Another reason I think Azir is so skewed between low and high elo

So I'm gold IV as of post, but probably in high silver MMR. From what I've seen, people in my elo are obsessed with being the hero/hard carry/one that wins the game, when they don't even have to. As arrogant as it makes me sound, I don't even need the rest of my team to win lane, unless I've picked Azir into a super shitty composition or I fuck up hard myself, I can usually more or less 1v5 carry a teamfight. IF MY TEAM LETS ME.

I see a lot of times people completely disrespecting fog of war, and sometimes they get away with it, but mostly they are punished, and tunnel vision on squishies the same way. This makes my job incredibly difficult because now theres 1 less distraction I can use/position behind or someone who can help me tear people apart. In other words; they don't understand win conditions and how to play around them. Something that I get the feeling doesnt kick in until high gold minimum.

For the most part it's just theorising, but there you go

To be fair his winrate is still just as shitty (actually shittier) in high elo if you check. It's 42.5% in gold+ and 41% in Diamond+

I still play Azir, and Riot's going to rework him to tone down his insane power so he can be properly buffed. Keep your chin up young emperor, and remember:

Azir Loyalty will be rewarded.

its just hard having to play all this other crap because hes too weak early, but then losing because you don't deal enough damage or have ways to deal with bruiser-tanks after 12 minutes maybe i should start skipping morello and just go Rylais->nashors->void staff

Why do you build morello?

Le mana and le AP.

I have found success with rushing item 3101 (Don't finish yet) Then go for item 3116 then item 3165 then item 3285 (Kiting) then item 3089 /item 3135 and with item 3020 . Finishing item 3115 should be the last thing you finish because the passive on nashor's is wasted on Azir. We only want the Attack speed and cooldown, which Stinger gives enough of to let us last through midgame coupled with the passive attack speed we get from W.
