You can cut his Q damage in half, IDGAF.
Just please, PLEASE do not remove
;s knockup on his E.
PLEASE RIOT.
Its not going to be a truely game changing nerf to him however it is going to eliminate ALL FUN of picking the champ. What makes Azir unique is his ability to do a lee-sin'esq play as an AP mage and you don't get to see alot of playmaking mages.
If you remove his knockup he is still going to be strong obviously, I mean diving into a team isn't really necessary or core to him as he can just sit back and DPS but its really going to make him become a boring, stale champion. I love Azir and I love making funny, unique plays with him. Just nerf his Q damage instead, make him weaker where it matters while still allowing him to keep his mother fucking identity.
Sorry to rant but this just annoys me to no end that Riot wants to make a unique champion boring and stale.
