Azir nerfs: Thoughts and context

Heya all

So i would ask, since i saw nothing about it, if there was some context on the recent Azir nerfs

For the recall, he got the Q nerfed by no more damage by multiple soldiers and a MS reduced by 10

I mean, right now, we can say that they nerfed every part of his kit (& the part of identity with the passive move on W), except the ultimate (i'm pretty sure it'll come)

To be honest and a casual player of azir, i don't think he's overpowered, and nerfs aims the wrong part. If he's too strong at mid game, they should reduce his value at this part, & compensate with something for early or late. Remove the E knock up opened many way to counter him right now. Remove the damage multiplier on the Q beside, is just delete the reward for well using 2 (or 3) soldiers in a only move, so less skill play. And the MS, it hurt only the early if luden is built, and the total play if he don't. Additionnaly, MR items are less expensive, which mean it's more easy to counter ap by simply buy items. With this, & the probable return of assassin's meta what's your thoughts?

It's kinda horrible that they keep nerfing him, the players of League don't understand what "counter building" is, so the instant they lose lane to an Azir they page riot saying "PLS NERF AZIR"

Azir. Was the hardest champion in the game for a very long time. He was also one of the best. The nerfs too him when he was at a balanced win rate. Just show's Riot isn't paying attention. All of Riot's Balance team are bronze, and silver. So they change whatever they dislike I guess.

They are not just factoring YoloQ win rate. He got Over used in the LCS. Unless you missed the so called "Shurima Shuffle" that made his Gank Assist way to Reliable.

And Keep in mind that worlds will be played on the next patch. So all the current changes are going to be oriented around that. To Say that Riot's Balance decisions are based around their own Elo would be completely unfounded.
