Azirs Ultimate

This is strictly my opinion and I am not sure if this is exposed to be in the game. I was playing some normal's a day or two ago and of course the enemies team had an Azir. When it turned into late game Azir ulted in the jungle but towards a wall. When he does this you simply just cant move and stand there glitched and it is really annoying to fight against especially when you are a melee type of chap. (Ie. Yasuo, Aatrox, Riven.) Riot if this should not be allowed please fix it. It is really annoying me that if an Azir ults in the jungle you will most likely get glitched in a wall until you die. Thank you for reading this and please correct me if i am wrong.

That made me think; what happens when his ult meets a Yasuo Windwall or Braum Unbreakable? Stops right there?

I can actually see this being a good mechanic to add to the game. Without the glitching part. I think he should be able to pin a target with his ult if used correctly but knowing from personal use that the wall last a little bit I'd say make it pin targets but only for a maximum of maybe 2 seconds. After which they would be able to move regardless of whether the wall is still up or not.

Anivia can also create a wall I've seen a few videos of people being pinned against a wall when she bits her wall just right to.

I think the intent is that you are caught between the soldiers and the terrain (trees) and cannot move until the soldier disappear. If you are still caught (glitched) after they disappear, then that's a bug.

Tried it, Lee Sin flew over a jungle wall, it was hilarious XD. My team found him and killed him though

It probably doesn't, but it should let you run along the wall towards the side. This makes the ult seem overpowered if you can be pinned against a wall, basically changes it from a group zoning tool to a group stun...I would be okay if it incorporated a short stun if his ult pushes you in to a wall.

So this happened to me as well, however I do not believe it to be a glitch. When this occurs you aren't "pinned" exactly. What appears to be happening is that you are inside of a soldier's hit box, and so if try to move the soldier slaps you and knocks you back. (If you look there is an animation associated with this for each soldier) Unfortunately if the wall is thick enough it can't knock you through it so you get juggled for the duration the wall is active, this effectively results in a 5-7 second snare/stun. While I do love Azir, this is incredibly oppressive and should be examined.

I understand it can be a great way to lock down someone but locking them down for 5-7 seconds while you are playing someone like yasuo for example you cant do anything and are worthless for the teamfight and most likely will be focused .-.

For sure, and it is pretty oppressive. I have found that Kat, jax and others can get out of it, but I believe it needs to be a targeted move action.
